Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

PRP or platelet-rich plasma is made by processing your own blood in a centrifuge. Many scientific articles have shown that PRP increases hair count, hair thickness and the growth phase of the hair cycle.

Anyone who is experiencing hair loss is a good candidate for PRP Hair Restoration. Especially, if you are looking for a non-surgical alternative.

One of our highly skilled Registered Nurses will draw a sample of blood (6 vials) and spin it in a centrifuge to separate out fibrin and platelets. The platelet-rich plasma is injected into balding areas to help foster collagen production and stimulate new hair growth. Up to 6 treatments are recommended one month apart. New hair typically begins to grow up to 6 months after final treatment with up to 25% hair growth.

There is no downtime, but you should not wash your hair for 24 hours and keep your head out of direct sunlight for a week.

It varies per person, but 6 treatments a month apart are recommended. It is recommended to maintain results with 2 treatments a year.

A typical treatment takes an hour. This includes the drawing of spinning of blood in a centrifuge. Your first treatment may be a bit longer to include a consultation and filling in medical forms.

PRP works to improve hair caliber and hair growth requiring repeated treatments once a month for 3-6 months. On average, however, most patients will require their repeat PRP treatment after 6-12 months in order to maintain the hair growth effects.
