PRP for Hair Restoration

What is PRP?

PRP is platelet-rich plasma, a product that is present in the blood. Platelet-rich plasma is a nutrient-dense fluid that stimulates cellular regeneration within microenvironments like the hair follicles, joints, and also the skin. Platelets are robust cells that contain numerous growth factors, each of which is involved in certain cellular processes.

Platelet-rich plasma has a long history of medicinal use related to tissue healing and regeneration. It is no surprise that this therapy has made its way into the field of hair restoration.

How does PRP work for hair restoration?

The primary purpose of PRP treatment for hair loss is to stimulate activity in the hair follicles. This may prompt an active phase of hair growth in follicles that have become inactive. PRP injections into the scalp may also support the active phase of newly implanted hair follicles. This occurs through the action of various growth factors.

Platelets contain:

  • Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF), which is involved in fibrin formation, blood vessel growth, and cell regeneration.
  • Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), involved in the formation of new blood vessels.
  • Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 (FGF-2) is also involved in blood vessel formation, as well as the generation of specialized cells that heal and rejuvenate.
  • Transforming Growth-Factor-Beta (TGF-b) is involved in bone metabolism in the body as well as matrix formation between cells.
  • Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) stimulates collagen proliferation and cell growth as well as blood vessel formation.
  • Insulin-Like Growth Factor – (IGF) provides necessary physiological regulation in nearly every cell.

Behind the scenes, PRP facilitates very sophisticated responses. On the surface, PRP can provide the results you’ve been seeking.

PRP Hair Restoration Treatment

There are two ways in which PRP may be introduced into the hair follicles of the scalp.

One technique is to perform microneedling, which creates micro wounds to superficial tissue. PRP is then applied topically where it can penetrate the scalp through the induced injuries. Within a few minutes, the microchannels begin to heal, but not before stimulating nutrients can be absorbed.

An additional and popular technique for PRP hair restoration is to inject platelet-rich plasma into the scalp in the area where hair is thinning. Treatment is conducted with a topical anesthetic which numbs the superficial tissue on the head. After drawing blood, we process the vial in a centrifuge, a piece of equipment that spins the blood to separate platelets from red blood cells. Injections are then administered to the appropriate area of the scalp.

The introduction of platelet-rich plasma into the area of inactive hair follicles stimulates a regenerative process intended to activate dormant growth cycles. Most patients need a series of treatments to achieve optimal results.

How long will it take to see results?

Consistency is crucial to obtain satisfactory results from PRP hair restoration. Treatments are typically scheduled monthly for a few months. Patients can expect to begin noticing improvement within two to three months. After the initial series of treatments, injections are repeated every three to six months depending on individual response and results.

The initial effect that patients may notice after treatment is that they shed fewer hairs. Over time, they can expect to see an increase in thickness and length.

FAQFrequently Asked Questions

Injection treatment begins with a brief blood draw that takes less than a minute. The second step of centrifugation takes a few minutes, during which topical numbing medication sits on the scalp. The injection aspect of treatment is meticulous – injections are positioned every half-inch across the area of thinning. As precise as this step is, it usually takes less than thirty minutes from start to finish.

In most cases, there is zero downtime after PRP hair treatment. Because injections stimulate an inflammatory cascade through which tissue is repaired, patients are advised NOT to take any kind of anti-inflammatory medication to manage comfort. Our staff will discuss appropriate medications or strategies to minimize the discomfort that may occur after injections.

Platelet-rich plasma is a promising hair restoration product for several reasons. First, PRP is completely organic; it is harvested from the blood. Treatment is safe and convenient, and it works. PRP can be prescribed as the sole form of treatment or it may coincide with traditional therapies ranging from medications such as Minoxidil to hair restoration surgery.

PRP treatment for hair loss may be appropriate for patients with androgenic alopecia at the crown and hairline. Women with alopecia and men and women with diffuse thinning may also achieve desirable results from appropriate PRP techniques.

The risk of complications from PRP hair treatment is very low. Common side effects include minor discomfort at injection sites, itching, swelling, and dry scalp.

Hair loss has long been perceived as a normal part of aging. It doesn’t have to be. PRP has demonstrated promising results for people who want to improve the volume and density of their hair.

Historically, hair loss was a problem that had few treatment options. If you were not interested in hair transplant surgery, you might get a bit of help from topical or systemic hair loss medications. Today, doctors all around the world are restoring optimal hair growth patterns using patients’ own biological medication, PRP.

Platelet-rich plasma, known as PRP, is a substance that is contained in your blood. It’s a blood product that is rich in growth factors, making it a vital aspect of tissue rebuilding and management. Some of the PRP growth factors that assist with hair growth include EGF, FGF, CTGF, PDGF, TGF, and VEGF. Platelet-rich plasma also has an abundance of anti-inflammatory molecules, antimicrobial peptides, and cytokines, all of which support tissue remodeling and wound healing.

When we inject PRP into the scalp in an area where hair growth has slowed down, the growth factors and other nourishing substances enhance circulation and proliferation within hair follicles. According to studies, this results in thicker, more robust hair over time.

Doctors use PRP for men and women who are experiencing various types of hair loss. This treatment can address male or female-pattern hair loss known as androgenic alopecia. It can also stimulate healthier hair growth where hair is fine or thinning due to metabolic disease or other factors. Provided that you do not have a significant chronic health condition such as lupus or other auto-immune diseases, you may be a good candidate for PRP hair restoration on the scalp, eyebrows, or another area. It’s important to understand that PRP treatment may not be as effective at reversing long-standing baldness. The process is more efficient in the treatment of recent hair loss or thinning.

The PRP hair restoration process is quick, simple, and convenient. It may take less than an hour to complete the three steps involved in the procedure. These steps, performed after a topical anesthetic has been applied to the area of focus, include:

  • Drawing blood from your arm.
  • Processing the vials of blood in a centrifuge. This separates the platelet-rich plasma from platelet-poor plasma and red blood cells. The PRP is placed into separate vials.
  • Injections of PRP are administered to affected areas of the scalp.

A lack of downtime is one of the many benefits of platelet-rich plasma treatment. After your appointment, you can resume most of your normal activities. Some minor side effects may develop, including scalp pain or irritation, nausea, and dizziness. For this reason, you may want to take the remainder of the day off to take it easy. While you may go back to work if you’re comfortable, you’ll need to avoid strenuous physical activity, exposure to excessive heat, and alcohol and tobacco consumption for a few days. You will also need to wait at least a few hours to wash your hair, and at least a few days to use certain hair care products, such as hair color.

Our team will provide you with detailed instructions that will help you prepare for and recover from your PRP hair restoration treatment.
