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 important growth factors 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 can 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 several weeks spaced 4-6 weeks apart.

You can receive maintenance injections every six months to keep your hair thick and healthy. 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.
