Hair Loss
Hair loss affects 70% of men and 40% of women and can start as early as a person’s teens, with risk increasing with age. Hair loss can result in the loss of confidence and has been one of the more difficult areas to treat – with painful surgical processes, lotions and pills that don’t work, and expensive hair pieces. It is often an area that can cause frustration and embarrassment. Whether it is for a receding hairline, a balding area, a lack of fullness and volume, or thinning or sparse hair overall, our hair loss procedures may be the all-natural solution for hair loss.
Miniaturization of the hair follicle is the clinical hallmark of balding. Certain studies have established that stem cells residing in the scalp remain at persistent numbers, but the conversion of stem cells to the progenitor cells required for follicle stimulation and cycling is reduced in balding patients. Efforts to assist in this regeneration of the hair follicle may induce a more robust and stronger recycling of the hair follicle. Once these stem cells are administered, they have the ability to re-activate dormant follicles, forming new cells of mesenchymal origin.
The PRP, platelet rich plasma, provides a targeted placement of stimulating growth factors, aiding in the regeneration of follicles during hair growth cycles. This procedure is performed either in the clinician’s office using local anesthesia. Results are typically seen during the next cycle of hair growth and improve over time with each hair growth cycle.
