PRP Hair Restoration - Package of 4
Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a common chronic hair loss disorder affecting up to 80% of men and 40% of women. It progresses over time and may begin as early as puberty. While its prevalence increases with age, the psychological effects are substantial regardless of age or gender. Hair is closely tied to self-image, and hair loss can negatively impact self-esteem and lead to depression, particularly in women.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy has shown promising results in the treatment of AGA. PRP is a concentrated component of the patient’s own blood, rich in platelets and growth factors. When injected into the scalp, it promotes tissue regeneration, stem cell activation, prolonged hair follicle growth phase, and improved blood flow.
PRP has been widely used in fields like dentistry, orthopedics, and aesthetic medicine. More recently, it has gained attention as a non-surgical hair restoration option for both men and women. It is especially beneficial for women of childbearing age who cannot take oral medications like finasteride, and for those who experience side effects or poor results from finasteride or topical minoxidil.
Treatment involves drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood, processing it in a centrifuge to isolate PRP, and injecting it into areas of thinning hair using a fine needle. The entire procedure takes about 15–45 minutes. Most patients undergo a series of 4 treatments, spaced two weeks apart. Maintenance sessions are typically recommended every 3–6 months.
In clinical studies, 85% of patients reported improvements in hair quality and thickness, and 65% noticed increased hair density. The average satisfaction rating was 7.1/10. Another study found similar results, with patients observing reduced hair loss after the fourth injection and visible improvement in coverage. Satisfaction ratings averaged 7.0/10, with many requesting booster sessions within 6 months.
Risks are minimal, as PRP is derived from the patient’s own blood. Possible side effects include temporary scalp discomfort, pain during injection, swelling, bruising, and mild redness. Serious complications are rare. No general anesthesia is needed, and recovery time is short.
PRP can be used alone or in combination with other treatments such as topical minoxidil or oral medications. It offers a drug-free, natural option, particularly for those who prefer or require alternatives to systemic therapies.
Contraindications include pregnancy, lactation, infections, autoimmune or skin diseases (e.g., lupus), cancer, chemotherapy, severe systemic disorders, abnormal platelet function, blood clotting disorders, and use of anticoagulants or corticosteroids.
Cost: Individual treatments are priced at $599. A package of 4 treatments is available at a discounted rate of $499 per session. Every patient’s results may vary, and a personalized treatment plan is essential for optimal outcomes. Our goal is to stimulate regrowth and maintain results affordably over time.
