Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) leverages your own blood’s healing capabilities to stimulate dormant hair follicles, boost scalp circulation, and reinforce hair roots. Ideal for both early-stage thinning and post-transplant care, PRP provides a natural, regenerative approach to support thicker, healthier hair growth.


How It Works

  1. Blood Collection & Processing

    • A small sample of your blood is drawn and placed in a centrifuge to separate plasma rich in growth factors and platelets.

  2. Scalp Micro-Injections

    • The concentrated PRP is then strategically injected into thinning or transplant areas of the scalp. These growth factors activate stem cells and stimulate blood flow, creating an optimal environment for hair regeneration.

  3. Natural Regrowth

    • Over multiple sessions, PRP treatments awaken dormant follicles, reduce shedding, and promote the growth of stronger, thicker hair shafts.


Benefits

  • Stimulates Dormant Follicles: Reactivates hair follicles in the early stages of thinning, encouraging new hair growth.

  • Enhanced Scalp Health: Improves blood circulation and nutrient delivery to hair roots, strengthening existing hairs.

  • Post-Transplant Support: Accelerates graft healing, reduces inflammation, and boosts early regrowth, maximizing transplant success.

  • Natural & Safe: Uses your own plasma, minimizing risk of allergic reactions or adverse effects.

  • Minimal Downtime: Quick, in-office procedures with mild scalp sensitivity that resolves within days.


Is It Right for You?

PRP is ideal for individuals experiencing early hair thinning, hair loss due to stress or hormonal changes, and those seeking enhanced recovery and growth after hair transplant surgery. A consultation will determine the optimal number of PRP sessions and combination therapies to meet your hair restoration goals.
