PRP for Hair Restoration
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is revolutionizing hair loss treatment that we
are thrilled to be able to offer to our patients here at IRM. PRP injections
can effectively regrow hair without surgery. PRP injections can be thought
of as a gift from our own body, so there is no risk of allergic reaction.
Hair loss, at any age, can prematurely age a person and can detract from
other features of the face, giving unwanted attention to the areas that are
balding.
Each PRP treatment is individualized by Dr. Eunika with the goal of
improving hair loss already present or to stop it before it worsens.
The procedure is minimally-invasive and can produce tremendous results. The
approach is completely natural and safe. The procedure involves an initial
blood draw which is then processed in our laboratory to concentrate the
platelets which are found in the blood. When these concentrated platelets
are injected in the hair follicles, they become activated releasing an array
of growth factors. These growth factors signal to the stem cells and other
specialized cells to start the process of rejuvenation stimulating hair
regrowth while at the same time working to slow down future hair loss.
PRP is an outpatient procedure, meaning there is no surgery and minimal
down time. Bruising can occur but usually resolves within a week or two.
Results after PRP for Hair Restoration
The innovative treatment produces results are reliable and natural in the
least invasive way possible. It is important that patients understand that
results can be slow and gradual. Generally, results will begin to transpire
after the first two or three months, and will be most noticeable around the
six-month mark.
For best results, consistency is key. Treatments are typically performed
once a month for the first three to four months, and then every three to six
months thereafter, depending on the individual patient’s response and
results.
Who is a Candidate for PRP?
Hair loss can occur in both men and women, and this procedure is designed
with that in mind. PRP is equally effective as a way to counteract male and
female pattern baldness. The best candidates for a PRP treatment are
patients who have slight to moderate hair loss, who want to take charge and
regain confidence in their look.
