PRP / PLATELET RICH PLASMA Therapy for hairloss

What is PRP ?

PRP therapy describes any application of PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, to benefit the body. PRP is used to heal and speed up recovery of injuries in the body, to rejuvenate and repair skin and to stimulate hair growth.

How does it work?

The PRP process is very quick. First, your blood is drawn into syringes. Then, it is placed into a centrifuge and spun to separate the blood from the plasma. This processing only takes 5 minutes.

Your blood is made up of four primary components: red blood cells, white blood cells, plasma and platelets. A centrifuge is then used to spin your blood to separate the platelets and plasma from the red and white blood cells. When the platelets in the plasma are concentrated, magic happens.
While this is happening, a numbing cream is applied to your skin for 15 minutes. Finally, the therapy itself only takes between 30 and 60 minutes depending on the size and number of the areas you are treating.

PRP for Hair Loss

Male and female pattern hair loss is a genetic problem that can leave you feeling helpless. Options, like prescription drugs, are often partially effective and carry the potential for unwanted side effects. Surgical hair restoration can be expensive and does not treat the underlying medical problems. Now there is an affordable way for you to regain your hair density back without surgery or harmful side effects. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) for hair restoration involves a simple injection of your own platelets into the vascular layer of your scalp. PRP for Hair Regrowth

• Increases blood supply to the follicle
• Increases shaft size (thickness)
• Triggers and maintains the growth phase
• Controls hair growth cycle
• Decreases hair loss

Platelets contain healing growth factors. Those growth factors are like signal callers that give instructions to your tissue to regenerate and multiply. This has lead different fields of medicine to utilize PRP for wound healing to speed up recovery time and regrow healthier, stronger tissue. Now doctors have discovered new benefits for hair thickening and regrowth. With PRP for Hair, your growth factors and stem cells work together to reverse the miniaturization of the hair follicle and jumpstarting dormant hair back into the growth stage.

Number of treatments will vary based on your need. Initially, we may recommend several treatments 3-6 spaced 1 month apart. After the initial treatment, we suggest maintenance treatments 2-3 times per year.
