Restore thicker, healthier hair with PRP hair restoration at Seaside Dermatology. This advanced, regenerative treatment uses your body’s own growth factors to stimulate follicles and improve hair density. It’s ideal for treating androgenetic alopecia, thinning hair, receding hairlines, and early-stage hair loss, helping you achieve natural, gradual regrowth.
Overview
PRP hair restoration is a regenerative treatment that uses platelet-rich plasma derived from your own blood to stimulate hair follicles and support natural hair growth. After a simple blood draw, the sample is processed to concentrate platelets rich in growth factors, which are then carefully injected into targeted areas of the scalp. These growth factors help improve follicle function, extend the hair growth phase, and enhance density. At Seaside Dermatology, this treatment is tailored to your pattern of hair loss for optimal, natural-looking results.
Concerns Treated:
- Androgenetic alopecia (male and female pattern hair loss)
- Thinning hair across the scalp
- Receding hairlines and widening parts
- Early-stage hair loss before significant follicle miniaturization
- Hair shedding related to stress or hormonal changes
- Reduced hair density and weakened hair strands
How It Works
PRP hair restoration works by delivering a concentrated solution of platelets and bioactive growth factors into the scalp to stimulate dormant or weakened hair follicles. After centrifugation separates platelet-rich plasma from whole blood, the PRP, rich in growth factors, is injected into targeted areas. These signaling molecules promote new blood vessel formation and prolong the anagen (growth) phase, leading to thicker, healthier hair over time.
Benefits:
- Use of your body’s own platelets for a natural, biocompatible treatment
- Minimal risk of allergic reactions or adverse effects
- Stimulation of hair follicles at a cellular level for regenerative results
- Improvement in hair thickness, density, and overall scalp health
- Minimal downtime with a quick, in-office procedure
- Compatibility with other hair restoration treatments for enhanced outcomes
- Gradual, natural-looking improvement over time
Your Experience
Treatment
During your PRP hair restoration, you begin with a small blood draw, similar to lab work. Your sample is placed in a centrifuge to isolate PRP from the other components. Once prepared, your provider maps the treatment areas on your scalp and may apply a topical anesthetic for comfort. Using precise injection techniques, the PRP is delivered into targeted areas where hair thinning is present, ensuring even distribution across the scalp for optimal coverage.
Recovery
PRP hair restoration is well-tolerated, with minimal side effects since it uses your own blood. You may notice mild redness, swelling, tenderness, or pinpoint bleeding at injection sites, which typically resolves quickly. There is no downtime, so you can return to your normal routine the same day. You’ll receive simple aftercare instructions, such as avoiding strenuous activity, excessive heat, or washing your hair for a short period to support the treatment process.
Results
You may begin noticing changes within a few months as your hair growth cycle responds to treatment. A series of initial sessions, typically spaced about four weeks apart, is recommended to build results. Maintenance treatments are scheduled every few months to sustain the results. Longevity varies based on your hair loss pattern and consistency of treatment, but ongoing sessions help sustain follicle stimulation and long-term hair health.
