PRP for Hair Loss
Platelet-rich plasma therapy to stimulate hair follicles and promote natural hair growth restoration.
About PRP for Hair Loss
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a concentrate made from your own blood that contains therapeutic amounts of platelets and growth factors that trigger hair growth. While platelets are best known for blood clotting, they are a natural reservoir of biologically active proteins that play a key role in tissue repair.
The PRP is injected over thinning areas in the scalp. The activated growth factors stimulate dormant hair follicles to wake up. Recent studies report that microneedling combined with PRP delivers better results than PRP alone, and can be combined with medications like Minoxidil for even better outcomes.
Studies report that three monthly sessions of PRP followed by a 3-6 month maintenance period produced measurable improvements in hair density and regrowth. Side effects are minimal and may include pain at the injection site, which usually resolves within a few days.
FAQ
Common Questions
How do PRP hair treatments work?
PRP injections soak the scalp and hair follicles in concentrated plasma and growth factors to treat inflammation, improve circulation, promote hair growth and thicken existing hair. Studies show PRP promotes hair growth by prolonging the growth phase of the hair cycle and waking up dormant follicles.
What is androgenetic alopecia?
Androgenetic alopecia (AA) is hereditary, hormone-dependent pattern hair loss affecting up to 85% of men and 40% of women. Women experience gradual thinning and widening of the part. PRP therapy is a safe and effective regenerative treatment for AA that increases hair count, thickness and growth.
Who is a good candidate?
The therapy works best when hair loss is recent and when there are many dormant hair follicles. Schedule an appointment with Dr. Rachel White to determine if PRP therapy for hair restoration is right for you.
