PRP (platelet-rich plasma) hair restoration is a treatment that leverages your body’s own plasma to stimulate new hair growth. Plasma, found within your blood, contains platelets, which in turn house growth factors responsible for cell growth and tissue repair. Through a series of PRP hair injections, these growth factors can assist men and women with specific hair conditions—particularly androgenetic alopecia—in restoring hair growth.
Your first PRP hair restoration treatment will involve cleaning the scalp and applying topical anesthetics to decrease any discomfort. Second, we will take a small sample of blood from one of the veins.
Next, we take a machine to spin blood, thereby red blood cell plasma separation. The plasma which contains the platelets is then drawn into a syringe and injected into specific areas of your scalp.
With the anesthetic infusion, most people find the PRP injections really tolerable. The entire process typically takes around one hour and a half, although the exact duration may vary from one person to another.
PRP hair injections allow you to resume your regular daily activities immediately after your appointment. However, some patients may experience minor side effects such as soreness, swelling, itching, or pinpoint bleeding at the injection sites. These effects are typically mild and subside quickly.
If you’re considering PRP hair restoration, here are a few key things to keep in mind:
Patience Required: PRP hair injections are not a quick fix. Hair regrowth takes time, and many people need several sessions to achieve and maintain their desired results. It’s important to understand the process and get a clear idea of how long it might take to see noticeable changes.
Varied Results: Not all types of hair loss respond to PRP treatment. Since hair loss can be caused by various factors like stress, genetics, age, medications, or illness, results can vary based on the underlying cause.
You might be a great candidate for PRP hair restoration if you:
Are in good health
Are experiencing hair loss, especially from androgenetic alopecia
Understand that seeing results from PRP injections is a gradual process
