How PRP Hair Restoration Works

In recent years, the world of aesthetic enhancement has expanded to help patients combat a wide range of cosmetic issues, for both men and women. One of the most important facts for patients to understand is that when it comes to cosmetic medicine, treatments are generally designed to combat symptoms associate with aging, such as wrinkles, fine lines, blemishes along the skin’s surface and what we will be discussing today, hair loss treatment. The fact of the matter is that while hair loss is generally considered a common issue amongst men, it can, and in most cases will affect both men and women over the years. For many individuals suffering from hair loss issues, it seems like every few months there’s a new trendy treatment, that everybody on the internet is swearing up and down, is the solution and the only hair loss treatment they will ever need. From things like biotin, to hair vitamins, hormone pills and more – the truth is that while some of these methods might have some promise on paper, in real world application they rarely ever work – at least not for the vast majority of patients. However, of late, one specific hair loss treatment method known as PRP hair restoration has shown to have quite a bit of success amongst both men and women. Now many individuals have provably heard of PRP therapy or platelet rich plasma therapy as a means of rejuvenating all types of tissue, from the skin, to cartilage, and even our inner connective tissue. However, in recent years it has shown to also be an effective treatment for reinvigorating our lost or damaged hair follicles. To better help us to understand PRP hair restoration, the team at Alluring Image Medspa, will tell us some of the most important facts to know.

PRP Therapy

Now before we go into the actual PRP hair restoration procedure, it is important that we understand how exactly PRP or platelet rich plasma therapy actually works. Platelet-rich plasma therapy uses the patient’s own platelet rich plasma, found within your blood to help restore and rejuvenate lose or damaged cells of all kinds. PRP has been used on professional athletes to help speed up the healing of connective tissue and other ligaments, as well as on Instagram famous celebs and models, to help restore and rejuvenate their skin cells. The plasma itself has a number of amazing step cell growth factors within it to help expedite the healing of bodily tissue, no matter if its ligaments and skin or even your hair follicles. The value of your blood plasma is great because it can also help to heal injuries faster, encourages growth factors, and also increases levels of collagen and stem cells – these are naturally produced in the body to keep you looking young and fresh. In this case, those growth factors are used to help regrow thinning hair.

How the Procedure Works

The fact is that the PRP injections used for PRP hair restoration or hair loss treatment, are similar to those same PRP injections used for all other types of treatment as well. Generally, the preparation of the PRP requires the following three steps.

· To carry out the therapy, your own blood is drawn, likely from your arm.

· That blood is then placed into a centrifuge to spin down into three layers: plasma rich in platelets, platelet-poor plasma, and red blood cells. The PRP will be used, and the rest will be tossed.

· That PRP or “blood injection” is then injected into your scalp with a syringe after a local anesthetic has been applied.

How Does PRP Therapy Treat Hair Loss?

The fact is that PRP hair treatments help both men and women. Male balding and hair thinning is talked about extensively, but women do not often get the same benefit of widespread information. The fact is that women can lose hair, too, due to several different factors and PRP can help them just as much as it does for men. PRP treatments can even help those suffering from androgenic alopecia or other forms of alopecia. This is also known as male/female pattern baldness. It is a hereditary condition that affects around 80 million people in the United States alone. During trials, this method of treatment has actually shown to help treat individuals from the age of 18 all the way up to their mid-to-late 70’s. in addition, a lot of people begin to suffer from hair loss due to daily stress, PRP can even help these individuals, while it may not resolve their stress it can in fact help to rejuvenate the damaged hair follicles and resolve thinning, or lost hair. One important thing to understand however is that PRP can’t grow hair in places where the follicles are completely gone. The follicles might be thinning or weak, or not be growing too much but when they no longer exist PRP may not be able to help.
