Hair restoration with PRP

PRP injections for hair loss are performed in office and require minimal preparation. A topical numbing cream is applied to the scalp about 30 minutes prior to the treatment . Your medical provider will draw some of your own blood in order to prepare the PRP solution. Your blood is spun down using a centrifuge in a special PRP extracting tube. The PRP solution is removed from your own blood and small amounts of PRP are injected into the scalp experiencing hair loss or thinning hair.  Usually 4-6 treatments sessions are advised 4-6 weeks apart. Hair texture, thickness, and growth of new hair follicles will begin as soon as 2 weeks after initial treatment. We advise patients to wait 3-6 months after initial treatment before assessing final results 

• PRP/PRF is a three step process: 1) blood is obtained (from patient), 2) blood is separated (so the platelet rich plasma can be extracted), 3) PRP/PRF serum (or gel) is injected or placed on target area.
•  PRP has been used in the medical field, since the 1980’s.  It has recently been used for hair loss management, as the injected PRP/PRF stimulates blood flow to the hair follicle resulting in stronger and thicker hair.  When utilized for skin texture improvement, the PRP/PRF stimulates collagen growth.  

Good Candidates for PRP Injections for Hair Loss

• Are in the earlier stages of hair loss
• Have small isolated patches or areas of hair loss
• Are experiencing thinning hair, but still have a good number of hair follicles
• Must be in good health and not on any medications that affect bleeding

After your PRP injections, it is normal to experience bruising, redness, itching, swelling, and/or soreness that may last from 2-5 days following your treatment. Often times patients describe their scalp as feeling tight and stiff immediately after their injections. You may notice a tingling sensation while the cells are being activated. DO NOT touch, rub, press, or manipulate the treated area(s) for at least 8 hours after treatment.
