What is PRP?
Also known as platelet-rich plasma, PRP is utilized by several fields of medicine and is a treatment that can help regenerate cells and tissues by using your body’s natural resources. It is created from a small sample of the patient’s own blood that is spun through a centrifuge and separated into its individual components. The plasma, or liquid portion of the blood, is infused with more platelets than usual to create PRP.
Platelets, which generally aid in clotting the blood, also contain growth factors that can help in the healing and regenerative processes of the body. Doctor Holman also utilizes this substance for PRP facials, and this treatment can potentially be performed in conjunction with hair transplant surgery performed by our medical team for patients who qualify.
How is PRP Hair Regeneration Performed?
During this treatment, PRP is applied to areas of thinning or sparse hair, where it is absorbed into the scalp. Although there are no guarantees, PRP can potentially help the patient by promoting growth in newly transplanted or inactive hair follicles using the body’s natural regenerative properties.
Am I a Good Candidate for PRP Hair Regeneration?
Men and women who are experiencing premature hair loss, who are healthy and have no contraindicating medical conditions, and who are interested in hair regeneration treatment that utilizes the body’s natural healing response may be good candidates for this procedure. Your treatment options will be discussed with you during your consultation.
Are There Side Effects?
As PRP utilizes your body’s own resources, it is typically easily recognized and processed by the body with minimal to no side effects. During your consultation with Dr. Holman and our medical team, any safety information that may apply to you will be discussed. Prior to treatment, factors such as your health and medical history will be evaluated to help you determine if this treatment is right for you.
