PRP for Hair Loss and Thinning: How Your Own Blood Can Rebuild Fuller Hair

Transcript

So PRP Hair Rejuvenation is an absolutely gorgeous treatment for those patients who are suffering from hair thinning or a reduction in the quality of the hair texture and the beginning of hair loss. So it's not great for patients who have completely lost their hair or completely bald, but for those patients who are suffering from the beginning stages, it's definitely better to come earlier than later. And what we do is we take the patient's blood, we spin the blood in my huge centrifuge, and then we can extract the plasma from the blood.

Inside the plasma, it has all the growth factors and all the amino acids and all the healing capacity of the blood. And we want to use all of that healing capacity and put it back into the scalp and back into the skin, where we can really allow it to rejuvenate the hair follicles to make more hair hair per follicle and thicker hair per follicle as well. So the whole area is rejuvenated in terms of quality and texture as well.

We see lots of patients as a standard protocol after they've had a hair transplant and they come to see us to maintain the quality of the hair transplant and also to enhance the quality of the hair transplant surgery by doing PRP and three sessions of PRP immediately after the hair transplant. And lots of patients who have had hair transplant surgery, they see that the texture is different and PRP can really improve that as well.
