If you find yourself with thinning hair or a receding hairline, you may have learned about a range of treatment options. Whether used alone or in combination with other treatments, PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is a powerful tool for hair restoration. It uses your own blood to stimulate healthy hair growth in thinning areas.
What is PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)?
Platelets are components of your blood. They respond to damage with growth and healing factors that can help wounds heal more quickly and promote healthy growth. PRP is extracted from a sample of your blood by spinning it in a centrifuge, creating a layer that contains the platelets in a high concentration. This treatment is used for hair restoration as well as facial rejuvenation and to help joint and muscle injuries heal faster.
How PRP Can Help With Hair Restoration
PRP improves hair growth in several ways. Platelets trigger a rejuvenation process that primes your scalp and hair follicles for full, thick hair growth. In addition, Juvanew Medspa adds growth-promoting serums to your treatment for even better results.
Stimulates Hair Follicles
When injected into the scalp, PRP causes dormant or resting hair follicles to enter their active, hair-growing phase. Follicles that went dormant due to hormonal or other factors reawaken in your thinning areas, restoring a fuller appearance.
Improves Scalp Health
In order to heal injuries, platelets promote new blood vessel growth in the damaged area. When injected into the scalp, they bring more oxygen-filled blood to your follicles, giving them the energy and nutrients to grow more hair.
Boosts Other Treatments
PRP is safe to use with any other type of hair restoration treatment, including medications, supplements, and topical treatments. It will improve the results of these treatments and help you maintain your hair growth over time.
Am I a Good Candidate for PRP Hair Restoration?
Since PRP uses your own blood, almost anyone is a candidate. However, you should meet a few criteria. Good candidates should have reasonable expectations and be in generally good health. Some types of hair loss respond better to this treatment than others. People with clotting or bleeding disorders may not be good candidates.
How Many PRP Hair Restoration Treatments Will I Need?
PRP hair restoration begins with a series of treatments over the course of a few months, followed by one or more yearly maintenance treatments. Most people have four initial sessions spaced one month apart. You may need more sessions depending on the type and extent of your hair loss. We will work with you to establish a schedule that keeps your hair looking thick and healthy.
