What is PRP Therapy for Hair Loss?

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy has been used in sports medicine for decades. Today, this versatile treatment is used for skin and hair rejuvenation.

Blood is made up of many components, including red cells, white cells, platelets, and plasma. Platelets contain proteins called growth factors, which aid in the healing of wounds. Whenever the body sustains an injury, these growth factors jumpstart the healing process and encourage new cell turnover. PRP therapy harnesses the regenerative properties of blood platelets to create an ideal environment for healthy hair growth.

During treatment, blood will be drawn and then spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelets. This platelet-rich plasma is then extracted. Next, the scalp is aestheticized, and the plasma is injected into specific areas. The growth factors quickly get to work by encouraging skin cell turnover, prolonging the growth phase of hair and stimulating dormant hair follicles.

Dr. Christopher Varona offers the most advanced and practical techniques for patients seeking PRP therapy for hair loss. He often performs this procedure with ACell, which is a multi-layer organic tissue matrix. This matrix contains additional growth factors and proteins that play a crucial role in reconstructing the skin and hair. When used in conjunction with PRP therapy, ACell can enhance the overall results and regrow hair faster. 

PRP for Hair Loss:  

Is It Right for You?

PRP therapy is minimally invasive, making it an excellent option for most people seeking hair loss treatment.

Ideal candidates include men and women who: 
  • Are seeking a treatment that provides gradual results
  • Are in the earlier stages of hair loss
  • Want to prevent future thinning
  • Have areas of weak hair growth with still-functioning follicles

PRP therapy can also be combined with FUT or FUE hair restoration surgery to boost overall results. Depending on your ultimate goals and the extent of your hair loss, you may want to also begin a medication regimen, like Minoxidil (Rogaine®) or Finasteride (Propecia).

Blending Artistry with Surgical Excellence

As a former hair transplant patient himself, Dr. Varona understands the transformative power of hair restoration. He is inspired by the way these treatments can completely change someone’s outlook, and he has spent the last decade perfecting techniques that produce natural-looking, long-lasting results.
