What Is Hair Restoration?

Hair loss is a common concern for many people, whether it is due to aging, genetics, hormonal imbalances, medical conditions, or excessive styling. Fortunately, there have been significant advancements in the field of hair restoration, leading to the development of new treatments to address this issue. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy has emerged as a leading minimally-invasive treatment option that has shown great promise in slowing down, halting, and even reversing hair loss.

What Are the Benefits of Hair Restoration?

At DeRosa Center for Facial Plastic Surgery & Med Spa, hair restoration treatments with PRP therapy provide a number of excellent advantages that can deliver more luminous, fuller, and thicker locks, like:

  • Uses your own rejuvenation mechanism
  • Stimulates the growth of your hair
  • Outcomes look natural appear natural and are often long-lasting
  • Ideal for both men and women
  • No additives or medications
  • No surgical procedures or scars
  • No needed healing time

What Is Our Hair Restoration Technique?

A minimally invasive process, the PRP therapy is a brief in-office visit that takes under an hour. The process starts with acquiring a small amount of your blood and placing it in a specialized machine called a centrifuge, which rotates the blood at high speed to separate the platelets and growth factors from the rest of the blood elements. After that, a local anesthetic may be applied to your scalp and the platelet-rich plasma is reintroduced into areas of your scalp that are bald or thinning.

Sometimes microneedling is performed on the scalp to create micro-trauma and micro-channels into the epidermis, which triggers the PRP and enables it to penetrate deep into the skin. Enhance your results with a hair-nourishing IV therapy during treatment. Our routine for nonsurgical management of hair loss includes an initial treatment series of at least 3 sessions over several months and maintenance therapies approximately every six months to one year.

Am I a Candidate for Hair Restoration?

PRP therapy is an excellent option for both men and women experiencing hair thinning or early-stage hair loss. Ideal candidates have a sufficient amount of healthy hair follicles, as PRP works by stimulating existing follicles rather than creating new ones.

It is often recommended for individuals with androgenetic alopecia (pattern baldness) or those seeking a natural, non-surgical approach to improve hair density and scalp health. A consultation with our specialists can help determine if PRP therapy is the right solution for your specific hair loss concerns and goals.
