PRP THERAPY for Hair Growth
Hair loss is a common experience for men and women at different stages of life. While there are many hair restoration treatments out there, most are invasive and require long recovery periods. That’s where Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy comes in.
PRP therapy is a powerful treatment for preventing hair loss and promoting growth. It works by directly injecting growth factors into areas with thinning hair to revitalize damaged tissue on the scalp.
This treatment is often used to address hair loss caused by androgenetic alopecia, also known as male pattern baldness in men.
Hair loss is difficult to navigate, and Dr. Sean wants to reassure patients that there is no shame in addressing it. He is dedicated to helping patients confront their insecurities and leave with a renewed sense of confidence.
Is PRP Right For Me?
PRP hair restoration is suitable for men and women 18 and older who are experiencing hair loss. Candidates should be in good physical health, with no conditions that could impact results. Individuals with diabetes, anemia, and certain skin or bleeding disorders are not eligible for PRP therapy. Patients must also be ready to commit to follow-up and maintenance treatments, as multiple sessions are required to achieve desirable outcomes.
PRP treatment is minimally invasive, making it an ideal option for those who are unwilling or unable to undergo major surgery.
In general, PRP therapy might be a good fit if:
- Your hair loss is caused by androgenetic alopecia: PRP rejuvenates dormant hair follicles, making it especially effective for this condition.
- Your hair loss is stress-induced: Stress-related hair loss is not chronic, so this can be even easier to treat.
- Your hair loss is recent: Timely intervention can result in better outcomes.
- Your hair is thinning or balding, but not completely lost: PRP injections target and strengthen functioning hair follicles, enhancing hair thickness and growth.
PRP Benefits
- Highly effective: PRP treatment is recognized as one of the best hair loss treatments around the world, delivering promising results within three months for most patients.
- Natural-looking outcomes: PRP treatment uses your body’s own platelets, ensuring the most natural results.
- Minimal discomfort: Since no surgery is involved, patients experience minimal discomfort.
- Convenient: This brief outpatient procedure allows for flexibility in scheduling, with patients able to resume normal activities immediately afterward.
- Customized results: PRP treatment is tailored to each individual, with personalized plans created based on the extent of hair loss.
What To Expect
PRP injections typically take about one hour. Patients may experience mild side effects such as pain, tenderness, swelling, or itching at the injection site. These are temporary and will improve with time.
While downtime for PRP treatment is minimal, it’s crucial to take care of the treated area afterward. Dr. Sean provides each patient with detailed post operative instructions.
As powerful as PRP injections may be, they are not a cure for hair loss conditions. This means patients may need multiple treatments to maintain their results. Dr. Sean’s recommendations will vary based on the individual’s condition and initial treatment response, but maintenance injections are common every three to six months.
