PRP Treatment For Hair Loss

One of the hair loss treatments that we are proud to offer at the Aesthetic & Dermatology Center is PRP, or platelet-rich plasma treatments. PRP for hair loss is a serum made from your own blood, and the plasma contains growth factors and bioactive proteins that aid in stimulating the hair follicles and restoring your hair. Platelet-rich plasma contains up to five times more plasma than regularly circulating blood. Because PRP triggers your body’s natural healing response, it is effective in promoting hair growth.

PRP treatment is widely used in other medical specialties such as orthopaedics because of its restorative and healing capabilities, and its effectiveness is one of the reasons we offer it as a treatment for hair loss.

What Causes Hair Loss

Many patients start to notice hair loss because of thinning wispy hairs, a widened hair part, or a thinner ponytail. Hair loss is relatively common and can be a result of genetics, environmental factors, and/or even daily habits.

A few common  types of hair loss that we see are:

Androgenetic alopecia:

Pattern hair loss (pattern baldness) is the most common type of hair loss our patients experience. As the name suggests, it is a genetic type of hair loss, and it only affects the hair on your head. This is the most common type of hair loss that Dr. Green treats; if you’re ready to take the next step and start restoring your hair, call our office today.

Stress induced:

Stress can have an incredible impact on our bodies, and, unsurprisingly, can cause hair loss. Events like grief, sudden weight loss or gain, or even childbirth can cause hair loss. Stress is hard on the body. When stress causes your hair to thin or fall out, don’t add it to your list of stressors. Come see Dr. Lawrence Green at Aesthetic & Dermatology Center.

Traction alopecia:

Putting your hair in a ponytail or bun can be incredibly convenient on windy days, for work outs, or pretty much any time. However, when hair is pulled in one direction for long period of time, it puts constant and prolonged stress on your hair follicles. As a result, you may begin to see your hair line recede. Men and women who frequently sport a ponytail, hat, or helmet are more likely to experience this type of hair loss.

Other Causes:

Hormonal imbalances, metabolic issues, and thyroid problems can all contribute to hair loss. This is your life; live it the way you want!
