PRP Hair Restoration
PRP is “platelet-rich plasma”; a component of your own blood which contains a high concentration of growth factors. When PRP is injected directly into the scalp, the growth factors help to stimulate new hair follicles and promote hair restoration. This is a great alternative to traditional hair transplants.
For non-surgical treatments, current statistics show PRP hair restoration treatments are effective in slowing down hair loss in approximately 70% of the patients treated. Patients report the appearance of a fuller head of hair, fine hair becoming thicker, and a reduction in shedding hair.

these days is used for many different applications.

One of the common applications that we use it for in our office is to promote hair growth. Prp has a lot of growth factors taken from your own blood and when injected under the scalp, it promotes the growth of the follicles. It makes the existing follicles healthier which results in denser growth and they will help grow the new follicles.

The normal blood flow under the scalp already has these nutrients,

but we provide a concentrated dose of these nutrients that help promote new hair follicles, heal the existing follicles and promote the hair growth.

And Dr. Gupta explained the procedure very thoroughly. To me, the procedure involves drawing your own blood and spinning it down and taking the very important growth factors that are in it, and then

injecting it into the scalp into the area that’s missing hair. The procedure works really well because it does a couple things. One is it brings special growth factors that actually help activate the hair cells to grow hair back again.

The other reason why it works is also it helps increase blood flow to that area, which is a much needed thing in order for something to grow.

So with those two things, you started noticing that hair was coming back pretty significantly in the areas that were injected, especially after the third treatment.

The procedure took maybe an hour and a half total and I went home the next day. You could not tell that I had anything done, didn’t take any downtime or anything like that, and the results are pretty incredible.
