PRP Hair Restoration: A Natural, Effective Solution for Hair Loss in Men and Women

Hair loss can be a difficult problem for both men and women—our hair is one of the first features others tend to notice, so experiencing hair loss can be a significant blow to your confidence. If you are experiencing hair loss, you may find that there are numerous treatment options out there, but many have mixed results and varied rates of success. Some also come with significant risks or side effects. Hair plugs in particular can pose a risk of infection, have substantial downtime, and leave you with an unnatural appearance in your hairline and hair growth patterns. PRP hair restoration is a non-surgical alternative that uses your body’s own growth factors to stimulate dormant hair follicles, allowing you to see new, thicker, permanent hair growth.

PRP hair restoration isn’t right for everyone, but it can be beneficial for a wide range of patients experiencing several different types of hair loss. El Con Health and Wellness can help you determine if this treatment is the answer to your hair loss and provide exceptional care throughout your hair restoration journey.

Understanding Hair Loss

There are many different types of hair loss. Male and female pattern baldness are the most common. Pattern baldness is hereditary and linked to the level of sensitivity of a hormone called DHT, which shrinks the hair follicles and causes them to stop producing healthy growth. While the pattern of hair loss looks different in men and women, both experience widespread hair loss and thinning that progresses over time. Other causes of hair loss include alopecia areata (an autoimmune disorder resulting in sudden hair loss), hormonal imbalances, and the use of certain medications. In some cases, treating underlying conditions will restore hair growth. Therefore, our team will assess your unique health history and lifestyle to determine if PRP hair restoration is likely to be effective for you.

How PRP Hair Restoration Works

PRP hair restoration can treat any type of hair loss in which the hair follicles have become dormant or inactive. It begins like other PRP procedures by drawing a small amount of your blood and putting it through a centrifuge to isolate platelet rich plasma containing growth factors. The PRP serum is then injected into areas of the scalp where you are experiencing hair loss and thinning. This triggers rejuvenation of the hair follicle, resulting in new growth that is thicker, longer, and healthier.

Treatment is fast with minimal discomfort and has few side effects because it uses your own plasma. It can also be safely combined with other hair restoration treatments, including topical medications like minoxidil (Rogaine). Most patients will see results with new visible hair growth after only one treatment.
