PRP INJECTIONS FOR HAIR

This non-surgical hair restoration treatment is ideal for patients who have recently started to experience thinning hair or loss of hair. It can be difficult to revive long-dormant hair follicles, so it is ideal to address the issue early for more optimal outcomes. Anything beyond a Norwood 3 level of hair loss will likely require a different approach to hair restoration.

This procedure is available to both men and women, along with those 18 years of age or older.

PRP treatments typically cost $1,500 per treatment. However, because we recommended at least three treatments, we offer discounted package pricing.

We highly suggest at least three PRP injection sessions – once a month for three months. We do not suggest more than six within a year because there’s an element of diminishing returns with this specific injection and we don’t want to do more than necessary to restore your hair.

After your first 12 months, we suggest at least one PRP session a year to keep up with any progress made.

The most common side effect we’ve encountered is pain and discomfort at the injection site. Patients may also experience temporary swelling between the forehead and eyebrows. Because we do draw blood, some patients may feel fatigued or weakened for a few hours after the treatment.

If you do not follow proper hygiene protocols for your hair, an infection may be possible but is unlikely.

Because this is a non-surgical procedure, you can return to your daily life as soon as you leave the office. We suggest you avoid wearing hats or other head coverings for at least 48 hours while the injection sites heal. You can even wash your hair again after a full 24 hours after the treatment.

However, you should avoid taking any anti-inflammatory medications after your treatment — the discomfort that you feel means that the injections are doing what they need to do.
