PRP for Hair Loss Treatment

Hair loss can be devastating to the millions of men and women who suffer from male-pattern or female-pattern baldness. Platelet Rich Plasma “PRP” is a breakthrough in hair loss treatment and one of the newest trends in hair regrowth. PRP therapy began in the 1980s, and doctors have recently begun utilizing it for hair restoration. Advanced Individualized Medicine of Naples proudly offers PRP therapy. Our clients have experienced promising results and the popularity of the procedure has expanded quickly.

PRP for hair loss is a non-surgical procedure that utilizes plasma from the patient’s own blood to trigger the growth of hair. The plasma is rich in growth factors which work like messengers to restore tissue damage. The plasma is injected across the scalp to improve nutrition to the scalp and correct damaged hair follicles. The injections trigger natural hair growth and can help maintain its growth by improving the blood supply to the hair follicle itself, this can encourage increased thickness in the hair shaft. Any individual suffering from hair loss is a good candidate for platelet-rich plasma for hair growth although those with early hair loss tend to see the best results.

Benefits of PRP for Hair Loss Treatment include:

  • Non-Surgical Procedure with No Downtime.
  • Can Restore Tissue Damage.
  • Promotes New Hair Growth.
  • Increases the Thickness of the Hair Shaft.
  • Virtually No Side Effects.
  • Works in Partnership with other Hair Loss Treatments.

What is PRP for Hair Loss Treatment?

PRP or Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy utilizes concentrated blood plasma, derived from the patient’s whole blood. It contains a concentration of growth factors and cytokines that stimulate healing and rejuvenation. The pain-free injections are administered directly to the impacted area in relatively short treatment sessions, and for additional comfort, numbing agents are available. Treatments are usually performed once a month for the first three-to-four months. After this initial period, they occur every three to six months, depending on the individual’s response and results. Once this treatment protocol is concluded, results can be seen within two-to-three months.
