Hair Loss Treatment

PRP for hair loss is a treatment for male and female pattern baldness that helps you grow your own hair. Male pattern baldness is defined as thinning that starts at the hairline and crown of the head. Female pattern baldness tends to occur as a general thinning over the entire scalp. Injections of PRP for hair are made into the scalp to stimulate the development of hair cells.

Candidates

PRP for hairline thinning and baldness is best for certain types of hair loss. You may not be a good candidate if your hair loss is attributed to medical conditions, medications, pregnancy, hormonal changes, and other factors.

Procedure

PRP for hair loss studies demonstrate that making injections of growth factors in the scalp improves hair viability in men and women. The procedure starts by taking a small amount of blood from a vein in your arm or other part of the body. The blood is processed in a centrifuge to separate the components. PRP is one of the layers. The PRP is drawn into a syringe and injected into the scalp.
