PRP hair restoration has become a popular cosmetic treatment for patients suffering from pattern baldness. This injectable treatment enhances hair regrowth, restoring volume and filling in thinning patches on the scalp. People looking for PRP hair restoration in Prosper rely on Forever 30 Medical Spa to treat their hair loss and pattern baldness problems.
What Is PRP Hair Restoration?
PRP hair restoration is a state-of-the-art hair-restoration treatment. Unlike hair transplants, it involves no incisions or follicle grafts and requires no recovery process of any kind.
This form of hair restoration uses the power of platelet-rich plasma. Platelet-rich plasma, or PRP, is effective in reducing hair loss and stimulating hair growth. This minimally invasive hair treatment can be used on its own or to enhance other types of hair restoration for optimal hair growth.
How Does PRP Hair Restoration Work?
Platelet-rich plasma is obtained from the blood of the patient. Once processed, it is injected into the treatment areas of the scalp.
PRP contains a number of growth factors and proteins. When these are injected into the scalp, they nourish the follicles. Not only does this repair damage to the hair follicles, it also effectively reverses the symptoms of androgenetic alopecia.
Am I a Good Candidate for PRP Hair Restoration?
PRP hair restoration is suitable for patients who are suffering from male or female pattern baldness and hair loss. Patients at the early stage of hair loss are excellent candidates. If you do not want to undergo a follicle-grafting procedure, this may be an ideal alternative.
Patients with no skin infections or scalp infections are ideal candidates for PRP hair restoration. Candidates must be healthy with no blood-related medical conditions. Candidates must not be taking blood-thinning medication and must have realistic expectations. Additionally, candidates must be patient, since it can take time for the full results to show.
Your Consultation
During your consultation, you will go over your hair-loss concerns and your goals for PRP hair restoration. We will carefully examine your scalp and ensure that the affected areas can be effectively treated with this procedure. Additionally, we will look over your medical records, including current medications and pre-existing conditions.
A suitable treatment plan will be created. Each step of the plan will be thoroughly explained to you. Instructions will be given to help you prepare, and the process of formulating the PRP will be explained. You can ask questions regarding this treatment at any time.
Your Treatment Session
The PRP hair restoration session can take around one hour. The first step is drawing a small amount of blood from the patient. The blood is processed in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma. The PRP is collected in a syringe.
Next, the PRP is injected into the targeted areas of the scalp. In certain cases, a topical anesthetic is used to numb the treatment areas beforehand.
PRP Hair Restoration Aftercare
The patient can go home after the treatment session. There is no downtime needed after the procedure. The patient can even return to washing their hair on a normal schedule, unless the treatment areas are irritated or painful. Specific recovery instructions will be provided, including information regarding prohibited hair products like hairspray or gel.
Results will appear between 6 and 12 months after the PRP hair restoration treatment. Typically, patients come in for around 3 treatment sessions for optimal results. Maintenance treatments will also be necessary every 4 to 6 months.
PRP Hair Restoration Cost
The price of a PRP hair restoration treatment will depend on several factors. Factors that may influence the overall cost include the number of treatment areas involved and the number of sessions required.
