Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

Many men and women experience significant hair loss as they age and it can be frustrating to search for hair restoration solutions that may or may not work. Losing your hair can affect your self-confidence and self-esteem, but the good news is there is a natural hair restoration solution now available.  

We offer Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) treatments for patients who are concerned about hair loss. For this treatment, we use the patient’s own blood to extract plasma. Plasma must be separated from the blood using a special machine and can then be injected into the scalp.

 

Why PRP Works

Platelets are in all of our blood cells and contain an abundance of growth factors. PRP is a highly concentrated solution of those platelets in the plasma.  We deliver PRP deep into the scalp with a series of microinjections to treat all of the areas showing signs of hair loss or premature hair loss.

 

What to Expect with PRP Hair Loss Treatments

The procedure itself is easy to tolerate and can be performed using topical vibration to minimize discomfort.  The treatment is performed entirely in the office and begins with a blood draw so we can extract the plasma. PRP for hair loss can be especially effective for patients who are concerned about a receding hair line or for those who have developed small bald patches.

Multiple treatments may be necessary, depending on the extent of hair loss and desired results. We can go over your recommended treatment plan and address any questions you might have about the procedure during your consultation.

 

Is PRP for Hair Loss Right for You?

PRP for hair loss treatments may be a viable option for you if you have tried other hair loss treatments or don’t like the idea of undergoing surgery to restore your hair. Many of today’s hair loss treatments don’t work for everyone so it can be a trial and error process for many — and a costly one.  PRP treatments are very affordable and support a natural regeneration process. They use your body’s own growth factors to rejuvenate the scalp and regenerate your hair so there is no risk of side effects.
