HAIR RESTORATION
WITH PLATELET RICH FIBRIN (PRF)
A natural and effective treatment option to target hair loss in Phoenixville, PA for individuals seeking to improve hair density and combat hair loss. By leveraging the body’s own healing mechanisms, PRF for hair loss can provide long-lasting and noticeable improvements in hair health over a series of treatments.
WHAT IS PRF FOR HAIR LOSS?
PRF stands for Platelet Rich Fibrin. PRF is similar to Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), but has slight differences in the way it's prepared and it's components. PRF and PRP are prepared from the patient's own blood similar to a simple blood draw. The blood is then placed in a centrifuge (commonly used tool in laboratories to separate substances in liquid according to particle size and density differences). PRF contains platelets, white blood cells, fibrin and stem cells that when injected into tissue release growth factors that stimulate collagen and elastin production.​
WHERE IS PRF INJECTED?
PRF for hair restoration is injected into the scalp in areas experiencing hair thinning or loss. The growth factors in PRF stimulate hair follicles, encouraging hair growth and improving hair thickness.
WHAT DOES PRF DO FOR HAIR LOSS?
The growth factors and cytokines present in PRF play a critical role in stimulating hair follicles. These components work by:
-Promoting Angiogenesis: The formation of new blood vessels improves blood flow to the hair follicles, providing them with the nutrients and oxygen needed for growth.
-Enhancing Cellular Growth: The growth factors in PRF encourage the proliferation of cells in the hair follicle, leading to stronger and healthier hair.
-Extending the Anagen Phase: PRF helps prolong the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle, allowing hair to grow longer and thicker.
HOW EFFECTIVE IS PRF FOR HAIR RESTORATION?
Efficacy: studies have shown that PRF for hair loss can significantly improve hair density and thickness. On average, patients experience a 30-40% increase in hair density after several sessions.
BACKED BY SCIENCE
Reduction in Hair Loss: clinical trials have shown that PRF therapy for hair loss can reduce hair shedding by 25-50% within the first few months of treatment.
DOES PRF GROW HAIR?
Yes! When PRF is injected into the scalp, it stimulates hair follicles. This promotes hair growth and improves hair density or thickness. The growth factors in PRF can enhance the health of hair follicles, which is beneficial for those experiencing hair thinning or early stages of hair loss.
Results are variable, and it takes at least 3-4 treatments over a few months to see significant improvement. It's always best to first consult with a provider at Nakd Aesthetics to determine if PRF therapy is suitable for your specific condition.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SEE RESULTS FROM PRF HAIR RESTORATION?
Results from PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) for hair restoration or treatment typically begin to appear after about 3 months. It’s important to note, noticeable improvements in hair growth and density are more evident after several treatment sessions, which are often spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Full results can take longer to become apparent, depending on individual factors such as the extent of hair loss and the condition and overall health of the hair follicles.
Patience is key, as hair growth is a gradual process. Following the recommended treatment plan also ensures optimal results.
HOW MANY PRF TREATMENTS ARE NEEDED FOR HAIR GROWTH?
Generally, at least 3 to 4 treatments are needed for optimal results. Treatment sessions can be spaced apart 4 to 6 weeks. Maintenance treatments typically suggested every 6 to 12 months to sustain the results.
Recommendations can vary depending on the severity of hair loss, individual response to the treatment, and other factors like age and overall health. A consultation with a provider at Nakd Aesthetics can provide a more personalized treatment plan.
