We understand that hair loss, at any age, can be difficult. If you’re concerned about balding, talk to your SkinMD provider about the various hair restoration options available for combatting hair loss. PRP (platelet-rich plasma) can help to treat or slow down your hair loss with minimal downtime and natural-looking results. When you visit SkinMD for hair restoration, our team of providers will always educate you on the pros and cons of treatment options, enabling you to make an informed decision that aligns with your hair loss goals.
What is PRP therapy?
PRP procedure is a minimally-invasive hair restoration treatment that is performed over several sessions. PRP produces some of the best results available for non-surgical hair restoration treatment by using your own blood to stimulate the rejuvenation of hair follicles. It’s a three-step procedure where we will draw your blood, process it with a centrifuge (a machine that spins rapidly to separate fluids of different densities), and then inject the platelet-rich plasma into the scalp. PRP has been proven to combat hair loss in over 70% of cases.
Benefits of PRP
Unlike many hair restoration procedures, PRP has zero downtime, provides natural-looking results, and can be performed on any part of the body where hair regrowth is desired. The procedure can produce great results as a stand-alone treatment, but can also be recommended in conjunction with other hair restoration techniques. It is important to understand that results can be slow and gradual. Generally, you can expect to see results after the first two or three months which will be most noticeable around the six-month mark.
Who is a Candidate for PRP?
Hair loss can occur in both men and women, and this procedure is designed with that in mind. PRP is equally effective as a way to counteract female pattern baldness as it is for male patients. The best candidates for PRP treatment are patients who have slight to moderate hair loss, and who want to take charge and regain confidence in their look.
