What is hair restoration with platelet-rich plasma (PRP)?
Hair restoration with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an innovative, non-surgical treatment that harnesses your body's own healing and growth factors to stimulate hair growth. This procedure involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and then injecting this platelet-rich plasma into your scalp.
At LongJuve, our skilled practitioners use advanced centrifuge technology to ensure the highest quality PRP for your treatment. This concentrated plasma contains growth factors that can stimulate hair growth in several ways. PRP hair treatment:
- Stimulates hair follicles that are dormant
- Increases blood supply to the hair follicles
- Thickens hair shafts
- Slows down or stops hair loss
We are also proud to offer the latest in laser hair restoration technology, such as the FoLix laser system for Hair Loss. FoLix is the first FDA-cleared fractional laser for hair loss treatment, and shows an increase in hair count and improvement in scalp hair appearance in clinical studies. FoLix also is an excellent way to preserve scalp appearance during medical weight loss treatments, which can sometimes result in thinning hair.

Hair Restoration Results
Hair restoration results develop gradually. Most patients start to notice improvements in hair thickness and reduced hair fall within 2-3 months after beginning treatments. Significant results typically become visible after 4-6 months.
How long do hair restoration results last?
The longevity of results from your treatment can vary depending on individual factors such as the extent of hair loss and your body's response to treatment. Many patients enjoy improved hair growth for 12-18 months after completing a series of treatments. To maintain results, we typically recommend maintenance sessions every 6-12 months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Platelet-rich plasma therapy for hair restoration involves injecting a concentration of platelets from your own blood into the scalp. The growth factors in the PRP stimulate hair follicles, promoting natural hair growth and improving the thickness and density of existing hair.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) hair restoration is a promising treatment that harnesses the body's natural healing abilities to stimulate hair growth. By concentrating platelets from your own blood, a solution rich in growth factors is created. When injected into the scalp, this platelet-rich plasma (PRP) works to stimulate hair follicles. These growth factors nourish the hair follicles, promoting increased blood flow and stimulating the production of new hair. While not a miracle cure, PRP has shown encouraging results in improving hair density and thickness for many individuals experiencing hair loss.
The number of PRP treatments needed for effective hair restoration typically ranges from 3 to 4 sessions. These treatments are usually spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart to allow the hair follicles adequate time to respond and regenerate. Following this initial series, many patients may require maintenance treatments annually to sustain the results. The exact number of treatments can vary based on individual factors such as the extent of hair loss and how well your hair follicles respond to the PRP injections. Consulting with a specialist will help determine a personalized treatment plan that best suits your needs.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the platelet-rich plasma injections. We use very fine needles and can apply a topical numbing cream to ensure your comfort throughout the treatment.
PRP injections can be effectively combined with other hair restoration methods, such as FoLix laser therapy. Your LongJuve practitioner will discuss the best comprehensive approach for your needs.
Side effects of PRP treatment are generally mild and temporary. After a series of PRP injections, you may experience slight scalp sensitivity, redness, or swelling at the injection sites. These typically resolve within a day or two.
PRP injections are generally considered safe for treating hair loss. Because it uses your own blood, there is a very low risk of adverse reactions. As with any procedure involving injections, there is a small risk of bruising or irritation where the PRP injections were administered.
