HAIR RESTORATION
RESTORE DENSITY & RECONNECT WITH NATURAL HAIR GROWTH
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) offer an autologous, non-surgical solution for hair thinning. Often referred to as "Liquid Gold," these regenerative treatments isolate your body's natural cellular messengers to slow shedding, increase hair shaft thickness, and reactivate sleeping hair roots.
HOW IT WORKS
Platelets are natural blood fragments packed with bioactive signaling proteins known as growth factors. In hair restoration, three core growth factors play a primary role:
- Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF): Accelerates cellular repair and tissue recovery.
- Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF): Stimulates new micro-circulation around the scalp to supply vital oxygen and nutrients.
- Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF): Extends the anagen (active growth phase) of the hair cycle and thickens the diameter of individual hair shafts.
After a simple blood draw, your sample is spun in a centrifuge to separate red blood cells from the growth factor-rich plasma and fibrin layers. When reintroduced into target areas of your scalp, this concentrated serum signals dormant hair follicles to transition back into an active, healthy growth phase.
WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE?
PRP & PRF therapy works best for men and women experiencing early-to-moderate thinning or recent hair loss. Because the treatment relies on revitalizing active hair roots, it is most effective in areas where hair follicles are still present rather than areas of complete long-term baldness.
THE TREATMENT PROCESS
To ensure complete comfort, local numbing or cooling methods are applied prior to treatment. Using fine needles, precise micro-droplets (as little as 0.05 mL each) are injected superficially across your target scalp areas to ensure maximum coverage. Injections are often paired with light microneedling to further enhance growth factor absorption.
RECOMMENDED PROTOCOL
Natural hair growth requires progressive stimulation over time.
- Initial Series: 3 treatment sessions spaced 1 month apart.
- Maintenance: 1 booster session every 6 months to preserve density and prevent future shedding.
PRE-PROCEDURE CARE
- Discontinue NSAIDs (ibuprofen, aspirin, naproxen) for 7 days before your visit.
- Arrive with clean, dry hair. Do not apply hairsprays, gels, or hair camouflage powders prior to treatment.
- Hydrate well with plenty of water 24–48 hours before your appointment for a smooth blood draw.
POST-PROCEDURE CARE
- Avoid taking anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs/aspirin) for up to 14 days post-procedure, as they can interfere with platelet activity.
- Gently wash hair the morning after your treatment.
- Refrain from strenuous exercise, saunas, and excessive sweating for 24–48 hours.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Are PRP injections safe?
Extremely safe. Because PRP is autologous (derived entirely from your own blood), there is virtually no risk of allergic reaction, rejection, or synthetic side effects.
What results can I realistically expect?
Most patients experience a reduction in daily shedding followed by thicker-looking hair. This occurs through a combination of increased hair density and an increased hair shaft diameter.
How long does it take to see hair growth?
While decreased shedding can be seen early on, visible improvements in hair thickness and density typically develop between 2 to 6 months into your treatment series.
