Restore Your Confidence
Hair restoration isn't just for a full head of hair; it can also help hair grow back in places like your chest, eyebrows, face, and genital area. During your consultation, your doctor will look at the area or areas where you are losing hair and make a treatment plan just for you. Getting your hair back can be an important first step toward making yourself look and feel better.
Advanced Hair Restoration
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) has been demonstrated to enhance healing when injected into the treated areas. Platelet-rich plasma is a component of your blood that contains numerous growth factors that promote new tissue formation and re-growth of existing but diminished tissues. According to researchers, when platelet-rich plasma is separated from blood and injected into damaged tissues, tendons, or the scalp, new growth occurs. Your medical provider will review your hair loss concerns and develop a customized treatment plan with PRP or PRF injections to reach your desired outcome.
With Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF), the blood is spun at a slower speed so that its layers don't separate as precisely. This keeps some of the stem cells and white blood cells in the platelet layer instead of separating them. This means that PRF offers more ways to heal than PRP. Also, the lower speed of the centrifuge does less damage to the individual cells. PRF takes the fibrinogen that is already in your blood, and thrombin turns it into fibrin, which is the first part of a blood clot. This makes a spongy fibrin matrix that activates the platelets and acts as a scaffolding to keep the growth factors and stem cells where they are injected and stop them from spreading.
PRF offers higher concentrations with 10x as many platelets as normal blood. Due to the spongy fibrin matrix, the PRF also releases the numerous growth factors in it slowly over a longer period of time spanning up to two weeks, and therefore its effects are more pronounced compared to PRP which released the growth factors immediately after injection.

Both men and women can benefit from hair restoration with PRP/PRF, especially those in the early stages of hair loss. It also works for women with traction alopecia, a type of hair loss caused by hairstyles that pull the hair too much and stop it from growing back.
It is also a good option for people whose hair is getting thinner but who don't want to take medication every day or get a hair transplant. Ideal candidates for hair restoration include men and women seeking a solution to their hair loss. Candidates for hair restoration should be in good health overall, nonsmokers or willing to quit, and free of active infections, which can cause difficulties. Importantly, smoking limits blood circulation. If you are a smoker, you must quit at least six weeks before your treatment and refrain from smoking following surgery. For new hair growth to regenerate, all of your free blood flow is required to promote healing and regeneration.
