PRP hair restoration is a non-surgical treatment that uses

platelet-rich plasma derived from your own blood to promote hair growth and improve hair density. Platelets contain growth factors that help stimulate hair follicles and enhance the natural healing process.

A small amount of your blood is drawn and

processed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the other blood

components. The PRP is then injected into the scalp in areas of thinning hair or hair loss, where it stimulates hair follicles and promotes new hair growth.

Benefits include increased hair density,

reduced hair shedding, improved hair thickness and strength, and stimulation of new hair growth. It is a natural treatment that uses your own blood, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or side effects.

PRP hair restoration is suitable for

both men and women experiencing hair thinning or hair loss. It is particularly effective for individuals with androgenic alopecia (pattern baldness) and those looking to improve hair density. A consultation with a healthcare provider can determine if you are a good candidate.

Yes, PRP hair restoration is generally considered safe

because it uses your own blood, minimizing the risk of allergic reactions or infections. However, it is important to have the procedure performed by a trained and experienced professional.

Some discomfort may be experienced during the

blood draw and the injections into the scalp. However, topical numbing cream or local anesthesia can be applied to minimize pain during the procedure.

A typical PRP hair restoration session takes about 60 to 90 minutes, including the time needed to draw and process the blood, and perform the scalp injections.

Results vary among individuals,

but most patients start to see improvements in hair density and thickness within 3 to 6 months after the initial treatment. Multiple sessions are usually needed for optimal results.

Most treatment plans include 3

to 4 initial sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance sessions every 6 to 12 months, depending on individual response and goals.

Common side effects include mild swelling, redness, and tenderness at the injection sites, which usually subside within a few days. Rare side effects can include infection or injury to blood vessels or nerves.

o Before: Avoid anti-inflammatory medications, blood thinners, and alcohol for a

few days before the treatment. Follow any specific instructions provided by your

healthcare provider.

o After: Avoid washing your hair for at least 24 hours, and refrain from using harsh

hair products, heat styling, or vigorous physical activity for a few days. Follow any

post-care instructions provided by your healthcare provider.

The cost of PRP hair restoration varies

based on the number of sessions required and the provider's location. On average, each session can range from $500 to $1,500. Package deals or financing options may be available.

Yes, PRP hair restoration can be combined with other hair loss treatments such as minoxidil (Rogaine), finasteride (Propecia), low-level laser therapy, or hair transplant surgery for enhanced results. Consult with a healthcare provider to determine the best treatment plan for your needs.
