Understanding PRP Hair Restoration
PRP Hair Restoration procedure involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and injecting this platelet-rich plasma into the scalp. These platelets release growth factors that rejuvenate hair follicles, enhance blood supply, and encourage new hair growth. PRP is particularly effective for individuals experiencing early-stage hair thinning or androgenetic alopecia.
