It has been thought for a long time that thinning hair is only a man’s problem, however many women are experiencing thinning hair and hair loss too which may be uncomfortable and unpleasant. 


Are you concerned about your hair getting thinner or are getting bald in certain places?  There is great treatment for your hair loss at the DeRosa Center. This hair restoration treatment is called PRP, short for Platelet Rich Plasma. PRP may sound like something you heard before and you are correct: Platelet Rich Plasma has been used by many celebrities for vampire facials where it is used in the treatment. The procedure involves drawing you own blood and spinning it in a centrifuge to separate plasma rich in platelets from the rest of the blood components. Plasma than gets injected into the skin by a small needle. This plasma is rich in platelets and your growth hormone that assists in regeneration of the skin and increases turnover of the cells. When it comes to hair restoration, PRP helps increase hair follicle activity and promotes growth of new hair. For better results Minoxidil can be added to the regimen.


PRP is a hair restoration technique that has been demonstrated to be exceedingly successful for treatment of premature hair loss and hair thinning in both men and women.  We have certainly seen quite dramatic improvement in our patients here at the DeRosa Center on Newbury Street, Boston.  If PRP is something that you are interested in and would like to try something for your thinning hair, you are welcome to come in for a consultation with a member of the DeRosa Center team. During your visit we will discuss an individual treatment plan that suits your need the best to achieve best possible result. Hair loss and hair thinning should not be the problems you are struggling with!

I recently visited the Boston location and was greeted with kind staff and a welcoming environment. I do my research and I'm realistic about what to expect. The consult was great, educational, factual and provided everything I needed to know to make my decision. I was able to schedule my treatment that following Monday and was pleased with the process from beginning to end. Ida is a true professional in the sense that it made my treatments feel pain free. Thank you again for everything and excited in continuing to come for other treatments.

I had an excellent experience at Dr. DeRosa's clinic! Dr. DeRosa and her staff were incredibly kind, professional, and welcoming from start to finish. I came in to have a keloid removed from behind my ear, and the entire process was seamless. During the procedure, they took the time to explain each step, which made me feel at ease and well cared for.
