02 Feb Hair Restoration with PRP

If you are struggling with hair thinning, it may be time to consider platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to restore your hair, improve thickness and boost your self-confidence. 

Causes of hair loss are variable and can range from stress, inflammation, hormonal imbalances, and environmental and genetic factors.

Platelet-rich plasma is a substance found naturally in your blood. The plasma contains growth factors that are important for regenerating and rebuilding damaged tissues. These proteins also help clot your blood to stop bleeding after an injury.

First, your blood is drawn and mechanically separated to yield the platelet-rich portion

Then this high concentration of PRP is injected into certain areas of your scalp to encourage new hair growth.

PRP injections help stimulate the regeneration of your follicular cells and also help improve their health and function. Healthy follicles are able to produce thicker and stronger hair at a faster rate.

It can take several weeks for you to see the full benefits of PRP therapy. You should see an increase in hair growth within a few weeks of treatment as your follicles improve. and sometimes requires a series of PRP injections over the course of several weeks spaced 4-6 weeks apart.

To keep your hair thick and healthy, you can receive maintenance injections every six months. These injections can also reduce the likelihood of additional hair loss.

In general, PRP therapy is safe and effective for treating hair loss. However, if you have an underlying thyroid disease, a blood disorder, or take blood-thinning medications, PRP injections may not be right for you.

Call to book an appointment for an in-depth discussion and determination of whether PRP may be beneficial for you.
