With advancements in hair restoration techniques and procedures in the past few years, hair loss doesn’t have to continue negatively affecting men’s self-esteem.

Dr. B is an expert in the field and offers complimentary consultations to ensure your utmost comfort and confidence. 

A majority of men will experience noticeable hair loss by the time they are in their mid-thirties. Men’s ability to grow hair is greatly impacted by genetics, as well as other factors like diet, stress, side effects from medications, and changes in hormone levels in the thyroid glands.

One of the most effective options to treat hair loss is Hair Restoration with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). This treatment has very low risk, is effective, and the active ingredients come from your own body.

The benefits of PRP for men

Hair restoration with PRP treatment can be used to treat male pattern balding, hair thinning, and hair loss. Thanks to this type of treatment, it is now possible to treat hair loss without an invasive procedure such as surgery. Most importantly, this procedure does not cause any pain and you can go right back to work or elsewhere after your PRP hair restoration treatment is performed.

Some common benefits of hair restoration with PRP include:

  • Increases the blood supply to the hair follicles

  • Improves hair growth and thickness

  • Non-invasive and non-surgical procedure

  • Stimulates cell growth and repairs tissue

  • Cost-effective procedure with no downtime

  • Boosts self-confidence and quality of life

GROWTH FACTORS IN PRP

Growth factors found in PRP include:

  • PDGF (Platelet derived Growth Factor) - PDGF helps in cell growth, new generation and repair of blood vessels, and production of collagen.

  • FGF (Fibroblast Growth Factor) - FGF assists in tissue repair, cell growth, and collagen production.

  • VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) - VEGF boosts growth and generation of Endothelial cells.

  • TGF-B (Transforming Growth Factor Betal) - TGF-B helps in the growth of epithelial and Endothelial cells, and promotion of wound healing.

  • KGF (Keratinocyte Growth Factor) - KGF is responsible for growth and generation of Keratinocytes. 

  • EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) - EGF helps in the promotion of Epithelial cell growth and wound healing, and Angiogenesis.

HOW DOES PRP HAIR LOSS TREATMENT FOR MALE-PATTERN BALDNESS WORK?

Your platelet-rich plasma hair restoration treatment begins with a visit to our clinic where your blood is drawn, just as it would be for routine work and testing. After sufficient blood has been taken out, it is then put in a centrifuge to spin at a high velocity to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other components of the blood.

Once the platelet-rich plasma is isolated, it is injected into the areas of the scalp where you are experiencing hair loss or baldness. PRP is an autologous treatment (the blood is taken from your own body) so there is no adverse reaction to the treatment.

PRP injections for hair restoration leave no scarring, and have no downtime. For most patients, the skin on the scalp may feel like a slight sunburn, but the skin will recover completely in 24 to 72 hours. 

IS PRP FOR MEN'S HAIR LOSS A PERMANENT SOLUTION?

Your hair restoration with PRP is not a permanent solution to the various forms of hair loss, but it is certainly one of the most effective and long-lasting. Once you have completed your course of PRP injections (usually three), you will experience dense hair growth between six to 12 months after your first injection. You can easily maintain your results with yearly follow-ups after your initial series of treatment. 

Consult a hair restoration specialist at our clinic to plan the ideal hair care routine based on your wants and needs. If you perform an internet search for “PRP injection for men's hair loss: before and after,” you’ll be able to see the dramatic results that this treatment can offer.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR PRP TO WORK ON HAIR?

It is essential to view PRP hair restoration treatment as a long-term investment. With PRP containing various growth boosting factors, start of hair growth can be seen relatively quickly within four to six weeks, but full appreciable results can be only noticed between six to twelve months after you began your treatment.
