Treatment Overview
Double-Spin High-Concentration PRP Therapy in Korea is an advanced hair-restoration treatment designed to produce a much more potent form of PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) than conventional single-spin systems. By processing the patient’s blood twice in a specialized dual-centrifuge method, Korean clinics achieve platelet concentrations up to 5–8 times higher than normal blood levels. This ultra-rich PRP contains powerful growth factors that reactivate weakened follicles, enhance density, and accelerate hair regrowth.
Korea is known for being at the forefront of PRP technology, using premium PRP kits, advanced centrifuges, and extremely precise injection techniques. This upgraded treatment is especially popular among medical tourists seeking stronger, faster, and longer-lasting results for hair loss.
Purpose & Benefits
Double-Spin PRP aims to deliver stronger regenerative stimulation compared to standard PRP. Its main benefits include:
- Higher platelet count for stronger follicle activation
- Improved hair thickness and scalp coverage
- Significant reduction in shedding
- Enhanced regrowth in thinning areas
- Long-lasting results due to stronger growth factor output
- Enhanced collagen production and microvascular support
- Effective both as standalone therapy and post-hair-transplant maintenance
Because Korea uses advanced centrifugation and purity-enhancing filtration systems, patients typically see better improvement compared to standard PRP available in many other countries.
Ideal Candidates
Double-Spin High-Concentration PRP Therapy in Korea is ideal for:
- Men and women with mild to moderate androgenetic alopecia
- Those experiencing rapid hair thinning or increased daily shedding
- Patients who have tried standard PRP but want stronger results
- Individuals with postpartum or stress-related hair loss
- Patients looking to boost results after FUE or FUT hair transplant
- Those who prefer a natural, non-surgical restoration method
It is most effective when hair follicles are still alive but miniaturized. Completely bald areas may need a combination approach with hair transplant.
Possible Risks & Complications
Despite being highly safe and autologous, Double-Spin PRP may include mild temporary side effects:
- Redness or swelling after injections
- Mild soreness or tightness in the scalp
- Temporary bruising
- Slight itching as healing begins
Serious complications are extremely rare. Korean clinics conduct detailed scalp assessments and blood tests to ensure medical suitability before treatment.
Techniques & Technology Used
Korean clinics use some of the world’s most advanced hair-regeneration technologies for double-spin PRP:
- Dual-Centrifuge Protocol (Double Spin)
– Blood is processed twice: first to separate plasma, then to re-concentrate platelets.
– Produces PRP with significantly higher platelet density and purity. - High-End PRP Kits
– Korean clinics use FDA-approved and CE-certified kits specifically designed for high-yield extraction.
– These reduce contamination and produce a consistent platelet count. - Growth Factor Activation Systems
– Some clinics activate PRP with calcium chloride or light-based activation to maximize growth factor release during injection. - Micro-Injector or Ultra-Fine Needles
– Injections are placed evenly across thinning zones with precision, minimizing discomfort and ensuring uniform distribution. - Scalp Imaging & Digital Trichoscopy
– Clinics perform detailed follicle mapping before and after treatment to track improvement. - Combination-of-Care Models
– Some clinics pair double-spin PRP with LLLT (laser therapy), PDRN injections, or nutrient scalp boosters for stronger results.
Korean dermatologists focus not only on concentration but also purity, making the treatment more effective and safer.
Treatment Process in Korea
1. Consultation & Scalp Diagnosis
A dermatologist evaluates hair condition using digital microscopy, measuring follicle strength, density, oil levels, and shedding patterns.
2. Blood Draw
10–30ml of blood is collected depending on the clinic and goal concentration.
3. First Centrifugation (Spin One)
Blood is separated into plasma, red blood cells, and platelets.
4. Second Centrifugation (Spin Two)
The plasma layer is spun again to isolate a highly concentrated platelet layer. Unneeded plasma is removed to create ultra-dense PRP.
5. Scalp Preparation
Numbing cream or cooling devices minimize discomfort. Some clinics offer painless injector systems.
6. PRP Injection Session
Using micro-needles, the high-concentration PRP is injected precisely into thinning areas and along the hairline.
7. Optional Combined Therapies
Depending on the clinic:
- LED red-light therapy
- Growth factor scalp boosters
- Microneedling assistance
- PDRN rejuvenation
8. Follow-Up Schedule
Typical program in Korea:
- 1 session every 3–4 weeks for 3 months
- Maintenance sessions every 3–6 months
Results continue improving for months after the final treatment as follicles repair and strengthen.
Recovery & After-Care
Recovery after Double-Spin PRP is quick and simple. Patients typically experience:
- Slight redness for 2–6 hours
- Minor soreness for 1–2 days
- No downtime or activity restrictions
Standard after-care includes:
- Avoid washing hair for 12–24 hours
- Avoid saunas, sweating, or intense exercise for 24 hours
- Delay hair coloring or chemical treatments for 3–7 days
- Avoid alcohol or smoking temporarily (to enhance follicle healing)
- Follow clinic-provided scalp serums or hair strengthening tonics
Korean clinics often provide specialized post-care products to enhance long-term results.
Results & Longevity
Double-Spin High-Concentration PRP provides faster and more noticeable improvement compared to standard PRP:
- 1–2 months: Reduced shedding
- 2–4 months: Thicker hair texture, stronger follicles
- 4–6 months: Visible regrowth in thinning zones
- 6–12 months: Peak improvement
Results last anywhere from 9–18 months, depending on genetics and lifestyle. Many patients maintain improvements with follow-up PRP sessions twice a year.
Because the platelet concentration is significantly higher, the effects on follicle renewal tend to be stronger and longer lasting.
