Hair Regrowth

The hair regrowth procedure uses PRP to cause regrowth of hair. PRP treatment is a technique that has been used in chronic pain management and rehabilitation where a client's blood is withdrawn, centrifuged to super-concentrate the platelets, growth factors, and other chemical markers. These components are harvested and injected into injured tissues. The chemical markers draw stem cells into the area and grow into whatever tissue is in need of repair e.g. muscle, ligament, tendon, cartilage, etc...

Hair growth is dependent upon a number of processes including stem cell signaling and a cascade of biological events to take place for proliferation and remodeling of hair follicles. Conventional medicine focuses on heredity for the majority of hair loss. However, research shows that stem cells located within follicles can regulate hair follicles and is the reason behind why hair can be in a dormant state or permanently eliminated.   

Autologous platelets (platelets collected from you and used on yourself) when activated, release concentrated growth factors and chemical markers. The growth factors initiate and organize growing tissue by forming a fibrin mesh or extra cellular matrix under the skin. These proteins and growth factors interact with cells residing in tissue such as fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and osteoblasts. They also signal migration of macrophages and stem cells to the area to be treated. PRP contains leukocytes that are key to tissue growth. It is through these processes that hair regrowth can be accomplished using bio-stimulation from your blood.

This treatment may not work on all people. The viability of the remaining hair follicles needs to be assessed. Follicles that have fibrosed (become fibrous tissue or scar tissue) will not respond well. Assuming the follicles are salvageable, hair regrowth should be possible. We can increase hair density and minimize scalp show in mild to moderate cases.  

In person consultation is ideal to assess suitability for this procedure. The practitioner will assess your associated risk factors for hair loss. The practitioner will examine your scalp to gauge what areas will benefit from the procedure and other areas that may not. Mild to moderate severity is best for nonsurgical hair restoration. 

At the beginning of your procedure, baseline photos are taken for your medical record. Progress will be compared to these images. Blood is drawn and a specialized centrifuge is used to create the highly concentrated platelets, plasma & fibrin (PRP). Injectable numbing is used to achieve numbness of the scalp. The PRP is injected into the scalp. Then PRP is applied topically and microneedling is performed to induce a controlled injury to stimulate platelet activation which enhances the success of the procedure.

Follow up visits are scheduled every 3 months. We don't expect to see dramatic results on the first visit, but we have been pleasantly surprised more times than not. By 6 months, there should be noticeable difference. Clients are encouraged to repeat the procedure 12-18 months after only 1 treatment. Hair density is still typically better at 12 months compared to pre-treatment numbers. 

As with any medical procedure, there are no guarantees. Individual results will vary based on associated risk factors, level of severity, lifestyle, stress levels, medical history, medications, etc.
