What is PRP hair restoration?

PRP hair restoration is a nonsurgical treatment that stimulates hair growth and improves hair thickness. PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is derived from blood and contains growth factors that promote healing and tissue regeneration. 

The PRP encourages dormant hair follicles to become active, which helps slow hair thinning and restore a fuller, healthier-looking head of hair.

How does PRP hair restoration work?

The process begins with your provider drawing a small blood sample from your arm and then placing the sample in a centrifuge, separating the platelet-rich plasma from other components of your blood. Next, your provider injects the concentrated PRP directly into areas of your scalp where you have thinning or hair loss. 

Growth factors help stimulate the scalp’s natural healing processes, increase blood supply to hair follicles, and trigger hair growth. Patients often notice improvements in hair density, thickness, and overall scalp health over time.

How many PRP hair restoration treatments will I need to achieve effective results?

Most patients require multiple sessions to achieve optimal results. Typical treatment plans include:

Initial phase

The first phase involves three sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart to jumpstart follicle stimulation.

Maintenance phase

The maintenance phase requires follow-up treatments every 3-6 months to sustain growth and prevent further hair thinning.

Results vary depending on factors such as age, overall health, and the extent of hair loss. Dr. Lomax can create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your goals.

Are PRP hair restoration treatments ongoing?

Yes, PRP hair restoration generally requires ongoing treatments to maintain results. While initial sessions can significantly improve hair growth and thickness, your hair naturally follows a growth cycle, and follicle activity may decline over time. 

Dr. Lomax recommends regular maintenance sessions to help support continued hair health and prevent future thinning. Many patients find that periodic treatments every few months keep their hair looking fuller and healthier over the long term.

PRP hair restoration is a safe, minimally invasive option for addressing hair thinning and promoting natural hair growth. By harnessing your body’s own growth factors, this treatment offers a personalized approach to achieving thicker, healthier hair.
