How Does Platelet-Rich Plasma PRP Hair Restoration Work?

PRP therapy involves the use of a person’s own blood to regrow and repair hair follicular cells. Specifically, the required amount of blood is drawn from the patient and placed into a centrifuge, which separates the necessary platelets from the blood. This platelet-rich plasma can then be strategically injected into areas of noticeable hair loss or hair thinning to stimulate re-growth. Often times, these injections can not only assist in re-growing hair, but growing it thicker and fuller than ever.

PRP for hair loss in Charlotte, NC is effective in treating and reversing the effects of both male and female pattern hair loss. In some patients with alopecia areata (spot baldness), it can also be an effective treatment. Ongoing PRP therapy sessions are typically recommended over the course of six months to a year to see optimal results, though this will vary from one patient to the next.
