PRP Hair Restoration NY | Hair Loss Treatment

While people may feel their hair situation is hopeless due to genetic factors, there is actually hope with hair restoration procedures. In particular, PRP hair restoration is a wonderful, non-surgical option to regain control of your hair. PRP has been used for decades to help wound healing, and it is also effective in stimulating the hair follicles to promote thicker, healthier hair.

How does PRP hair restoration work?

Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is found in your blood, and it has a regenerative effect on virtually any part of your body that requires it. During PRP hair restoration, the first step is to draw blood. It is then placed in a centrifuge and spun down to isolate the PRP from the rest of the blood cells. Once this is done, your dermatologist is armed with pure PRP from your own body. The growth factors in PRP are known to supercharge your body’s natural healing process. The platelets in PRP work to stimulate stem cells right in the hair follicle, leading to a more active, livelier follicle.

For patients who have already undergone hair transplants, PRP is a fantastic supplementary treatment to help the newly transplanted follicles become fully active.

Results from PRP hair restoration vary from patient to patient. In general, patients who undergo PRP hair restoration three to four times per year have reported impressive results from treatment.

PRP hair restoration – the non-surgical alternative

Some patients understandably do not want to undergo a full hair transplant procedure, or they are simply in the early stages of hair loss. For such patients, PRP hair restoration may be the perfect alternative to find relief from hair loss, all with a minimal downtime procedure.

Because PRP is harvested from your own blood, this procedure offers no concern regarding negative reactions to the treatment. All told, PRP hair restoration is a viable option to regenerate existing hair follicles, returning them to their full production and lush result.

The PRP hair restoration procedure

PRP hair restoration is performed through the following steps:

We draw your blood, very similar to any standard blood test
The blood is placed in a centrifuge and spun down to isolate the platelet rich plasma
Once we have isolated the PRP and it is ready for treatment, we use an anesthetic to numb the area of the scalp being treated

With precise technique, the PRP is injected into the target area
Once the injection is complete, the hair and scalp are washed
After treatment with PRP hair restoration, you can immediately resume your daily activities
