Those experiencing hair loss know how disheartening it can be, and the affect it can have on their life. Unfortunately, hair loss can take away from your confidence and your happiness.

What is PRP Hair Treatment?

PRP hair restoration is a hair loss solution that utilizes your very own plasma to help new hair to appear. Our plasma contains white blood cells and platelets, which are very rich in growth factors. Think about it like this: when you get a cut or scrape, your platelets are the body’s “first responders” that immediately arrive to stop the bleeding and begin the healing. 

With this knowledge, researchers decided to extract concentrated platelets and inject them into damaged areas of the body in order to see if they could speed up the healing process. These researchers also discovered that PRP could help hair to regrow by reversing the process that occurs with hair loss.

What Happens During a PRP Hair Restoration Treatment?

During your treatment of PRP hair restoration in McKinney, TX, blood will be drawn from your arm, and the blood sample will be placed in a centrifuge. This centrifuge then spins the blood, which separates its components. Once this is done, the platelets will be extracted using a syringe.

Dr. Barstad will then inject these platelets into specifically targeted areas of the scalp, directly at the level of the hair follicles.

Treatments typically take about one hour, and multiple appointments may be necessary, depending on the severity of the patient’s needs.

How Long do Results Last?

Because different conditions cause hair loss, PRP hair restoration treatments are not a permanent cure. Consistency is key, and patients will most likely need to have multiple sessions over time to maintain their results. This could mean getting maintenance injections every 3-6 months once hair loss is under control.

Side Effects 

After a PRP hair restoration treatment you may experience a small amount of pain or bleeding at the injection site, swelling, itching, headache, and/or scalp tenderness. If you’re concerned about any of these side effects, please let us know and we will be happy to answer any questions you have.

PRP Hair Restoration FAQs:

How many PRP sessions are needed, and how often?

The number of PRP sessions needed varies depending on individual factors such as the extent of hair loss, treatment goals, and response to treatment. Typically, a series of three to four initial treatments spaced about four to six weeks apart is recommended, followed by maintenance sessions every six to twelve months.

Is PRP hair restoration painful?

Discomfort during PRP injections is generally minimal and well-tolerated by most patients. Topical anesthesia or ice packs may be applied to the scalp before treatment to minimize any discomfort.

How soon can I expect to see results from PRP hair restoration?

Results from PRP hair restoration may vary, but many patients begin to notice improvements in hair texture, thickness, and growth within a few months after starting treatment. Optimal results are typically seen several months after completing the initial series of treatments.

Can PRP be combined with other hair loss treatments?

Yes, PRP hair restoration can be combined with other hair loss treatments such as topical minoxidil (Rogaine) or oral finasteride (Propecia) to enhance results. Additionally, PRP may complement hair transplant surgery by promoting faster healing and improved graft survival.
