PRP Hair Regeneration
PRP can help promote hair regrowth for those who are suffering from hair thinning or male-pattern baldness. Injections into your scalp help repair hair follicles and stimulate thicker, fuller hair growth. Many patients prefer this natural method as opposed to lathering chemical commercial products into their scalp every day or even having invasive hair plugs or other procedures performed!
What is Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapies harness your own growth factors rather than synthetic agents to repair damage and rejuvenate different areas of the body. PRP offers an all-natural, hypoallergenic option to more invasive treatments, whether for facial rejuvenation, scalp and hair rejuvenation, or joint therapy. We derive this anti-aging “potion” from your own blood, processed to separate and concentrate the growth factors for maximum healing impact. The results can last for weeks or even months!
Think of how the body reacts to a wound: when you get hurt, your body reacts by sending extra blood and the associated growth factors to the area in order to speed healing. PRP works similarly to target those areas that need extra help.
How is PRP Done?
- First, a small amount of your blood is drawn and then spun in a centrifuge.
- The spinning mechanism splits the blood into 3 layers: the red cells on the bottom, the platelets and white cells in the center, and the plasma on top.
- The white layer is mixed with the plasma layer, then injected into the problem area. This releases a flood of fast-acting growth factors to heal and restore targeted tissues.
Benefits of PRP Therapy
PRP offers so many benefits across a wide range of areas that it is hard to list them all. In summary, PRP speeds up healing and regeneration for skin and scalp while doing the same for joints. It can reducing pain, inflammation and the need for more invasive procedures such as surgery or aesthetic procedures such as fillers or other injectables.
Side Effects of PRP Therapy
Complications or side effects with PRP are extremely rare. Pain at the injection site can normal and topical anesthetics along with other techniques are used to reduce any discomfort associated with Facial and Hair PRP treatments.
