PRP Therapy for hair loss or naturally thin hair can be highly effective to regrow hair or improve hair quality in men and women of all ages. Millions of men and women around the globe suffer from thin hair or hair loss for various reasons. Dr. Farah Sultan incorporated PRP Therapy because she understands that hair loss can affect the confidence and the overall emotional wellbeing of the individual suffering from hair loss. Our skilled staff extracts a small amount of blood from the patient during the visit, followed by separating the platelet rich plasma from the rest of the blood with a system called a centrifuge. The platelet rich plasma is then injected into areas of the scalp where hair thinning has occurred. PRP can be an effective treatment for hair loss caused by hormonal changes, hair loss caused by stress, hair loss caused by trauma, and also hair loss caused by traction (tight hairstyles, tape ins, weave). We also found that PRP Therapy can be effective in slowing down genetic hair loss such as male pattern baldness and female pattern baldness. In the past years PRP has become very popular in aesthetics for skin rejuvenation and seems effective for male and female rejuvenation. Furthermore, platelet rich plasma therapy can be very helpful to assist in prep for hair transplantation, during hair transplantation to improve survival of hair grafts, and after hair transplantation to speed up the healing of hair grafts.
Yes, it’s considered a very safe, natural, relatively affordable, and less invasive alternative treatment option than hair transplant surgery. Dr. Farah Sultan, who performs it frequently, says it can stimulate the follicles and slow down the rate of hair loss. There are no side effects or allergic reactions because the blood is derived from the patient’s own body.
Dr. Farah sultan will also identify the root cause and cater each treatment to the individual patient’s need in conjunction with hormone replacement therapy, supplements, laser cap, and hair loss products.
