Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Hair Restoration
WHERE YOUR RADIANT SKIN JOURNEY STARTS
Hair loss can be an embarrassing issue. Male and female pattern hair loss is a genetic problem that can leave you feeling helpless. Options, like prescription drugs, are often partially effective and carry the potential for unwanted side effects. Surgical hair restoration can be expensive and does not treat the underlying medical problems. Now there is an affordable way for you to regain your hair density back without surgery or harmful side effects. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) for hair restoration involves a simple injection of your own platelets into the vascular layer of your scalp.
PRP for Hair Restoration:
Increases blood supply to the follicle

Triggers and maintains the growth phase
Controls hair growth cycle
