PRF HAIR RESTORATION

Did you know that growth factors from your own blood can be injected for hair restoration!


What is PRF HAIR RESTORATION? PRF hair restoration therapy is a three-step medical treatment that involves injecting concentrated plasma into the scalp. PRF, or platelet-rich fibrin, uses your body’s own stem cells to stimulate hair re-growth. Since PRF growth factors come from your own blood, the body more easily accepts the treatment and increases natural tissue regeneration. The tissue growth stimulates hair follicles, making them larger and healthier so they can produce thicker hair. Both men and women benefit from PRF hair restoration’s many benefits including thinning hair, receding hairline and baldness.


PRF vs PRP?
In comparison to Platelet Rich Plasma(PRP), Platelet Rich Fibrin(PRF) does not require the use of any additives or anti-coagulants to unlock your body’s natural healing properties. PRF provides a blood concentrate that is richer in platelets and longer-lasting growth factors for maximum stimulation and best results. While PRP only releases growth factors for a few hours, PRF releases growth factors for up to 1 week.


How is the treatment done?
During the procedure, a small sample of your blood is collected and then spun in a centrifuge in order to separate your red blood cells from everything else. After centrifugation is complete, your own platelets, white blood cells, and mesenchymal stem cells are collected. The PRF, rich in growth factors, is then injected into the scalp where hair loss is being experienced. 

Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) Hair Restoration

Does PRF hair restoration work? Generally, patients see optimum results after four sessions and we advise maintenance treatments very 6-12 months after initial sessions.


What is the downtime?
After PRF hair restoration treatment, expect to have swelling in the areas of injection for a few days, possible bruising, and tenderness. This will resolve in a few days after treatment, but always plan for a 1-2 week period of healing time. 


How many treatments are recommended?
At least 4-5 PRF hair restoration treatments are advised, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, for best results.
