Benefits of PRP Hair Restoration in Los Angeles
New Growth
PRP hair restoration diminishes further hair loss and supports the growth of new hair.
Hypoallergenic Source
The platelet-rich plasma utilized in PRP hair restoration is sourced from the patient’s body, so there’s no risk of an allergic reaction.
Looks Natural
PRP hair restoration works with your body’s natural processes for positive results that don’t say “work’s been done.”
Consultation
It begins with a personalized consultation with a trained and licensed Younique provider. During this relaxing and energizing one-on-one session, they will discuss your concerns, treatment goals, and medical history. If the Younique provider determines that PRP hair restoration in Los Angeles is the best option for your concerns and goals, we will schedule the treatment session.
Procedure
First, the Younique provider will cleanse the skin in your treatment area. To prepare the platelet-rich plasma for injection, they will draw blood and place it into a centrifuge, which spins the blood at a high rate. After about 10 minutes, the blood will separate into red blood cells, platelet-poor plasma, and platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The PRP is then skillfully injected into several sites in your scalp’s treatment areas.
Recovery
The injections place the PRP at the base of these hair follicles to stimulate specialized dermal papilla cells. The function of these cells is key to hair growth. Not only will the PRP prevent cells from ceasing to grow hair, but it can also reactivate dormant but still alive dermal papilla cells to grow hair again. Over time, as hair growth cycles progress, you’ll experience reduced hair loss and increases in the density and diameter of your new hair.
Build Your Custom Treatment Plan
The path for your Younique journey begins with this first step.
Who makes a good candidate to have PRP hair restoration in Los Angeles?
PRP hair restoration is a great choice for women or men who are in good general health, have a good platelet count, and suffer from hair loss issues such as:
- Male/female pattern baldness
- Specific types of alopecia (it can treat many of them)
- General hair thinning/hair loss
If you’ve had hair transplants, our PRP hair restoration therapy can support the transferred hair follicles. Individuals with active infections, anemia, hemophilia, or cancer should avoid PRP-related treatments in general.
Are there any side effects to PRP hair restoration?
Because the platelet-rich plasma comes from your own body, the Younique provider is basically injecting your own blood into scalp skin. This means practically no risk of rejection or allergic reaction.
The injection process always carries a risk of side effects. Though rare, they may include:
- Injury to blood vessels or nerves
- Infection
- Bleeding at the injection site
- Mild bruising
- Tiny scar tissue
If anesthetic is used, there’s the chance that you could have a negative reaction to it. Be sure to let your provider know during the consultation about any issues with anesthetics.
