The Power of Platelets for Hair Restoration
Platelets in your blood stream are the body’s first step in the healing and regeneration process that follows injury.
Platelet Rich Plasma is a regenerative product made from your own blood. It is a highly concentrated dose of your own platelets created by centrifuging your own blood according to specific protocols. These platelets are then injected into the scalp, stimulating hair follicles.
Options for Hair Restoration:
Hair loss can be an embarrassing issue. Male and female pattern hair loss is a genetic problem and has also recently spiked in frequency as a common side effect in individuals who have contracted COVID-19. The population has increasingly searched for solutions, and many have found success with PRP therapy. 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.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) has been clinically studied for treatment of patterned hair loss as well as conditions such as androgenetic alopecia.
PRP is an affordable option for hair restoration without surgery or harmful side effects.
PRP involves a simple injection of your own platelets into the vascular layer of your scalp. Benefits include:
Increases blood supply to the follicle
Increases shaft size (thickness)
Triggers and maintains the growth phase
Controls hair growth cycle
Decreases hair loss
Things to Know About PRP Treatments
Platelet Counts and PRP Effectiveness
Because PRP depends on the healing power of your platelets, those with lower platelet counts will not have as pronounced an effect. This generally isn’t an issue unless you have extremely low platelet counts (a condition known as Thrombocytopenia).
Personalized and Safe PRP Therapy
Because PRP is made from your own blood, we cannot (and will not!) give your PRP to someone else (or someone else’s to you). Thus, there is no risk of acquiring an infectious disease from PRP therapy.
Avoid NSAIDs for Optimal Healing
Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDS) such as ibuprofen, aspirin, Naprosyn, indomethacin, meloxicam, piroxicam, etc., can interfere with the healing process initiated by PRP. These drugs should be avoided for 1 week before and 2-3 weeks after your PRP therapy.
