What is PRP Scalp Therapy? Does it work for hair loss?

*Dr. Monte Slater, the medical director of  Buckhead Hair Restoration is one of Atlanta’s choices for PRP Scalp Therapy when you are experiencing hair loss. Dr. Slater has spent many years researching hair loss causes and offers effective solutions, such as PRP Scalp Therapy (Platelet Rich Plasma) to his patients that are suffering from hair loss. When you are in Dr. Slater’s hands he strives to achieve the most natural hair restoration for his patients. Experience counts when it comes to hair loss solutions. Many young folks suffer from hair loss due to stress. Dr. Slater is committed to finding the causes of hair loss and equally important the best solution. 

What is PRP Scalp Therapy?

PRP Scalp Therapy is utilized in the hair restoration industry to stimulate follicles that are responsible for hair growth. Dr. Slater draws blood and extracts the Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and then re-injects it into the scalp. The powerful growth factors in your own blood plasma can help combat hair loss. PRP Hair Restoration can be the perfect solution for both men and women suffering from different types of hair loss. PRP Scalp therapy is not guaranteed to return results for everyone, however, patient feedback has been mostly positive. 

PRP Scalp Therapy can be a stand-alone procedure to slow the progress of balding and hair loss in men and also for women that are experiencing stress-induced hair loss or hair thinning due to hormonal issues.  PRP Scalp Therapy requires injections into the scalp utilizing the extracted blood plasma and is often performed along with micro-needling of the scalp for even better results. Dr. Slater determines how to treat his patients for hair loss based on their hair loss cause, age, gender and medical history. He practices safe medicine and provides sound answers and options for hair loss. There are various vendors selling PRP kits, because the PRP has to be derived from the patient, then put into tubes that are put in a machine called centrifuge to spin the blood and separate the plasma from the remaining blood. The price point depends on the Doctor, facility, and kit caused, as well as the brand of the kit used. You will often hear two names in the industry! 

TRUE PRP 

Without getting too deep into medical terminology, each vendor requires different methods to derive the plasma and protocols vary, so does the cost. PRP Treatments range between $500 $1000 per treatment and are also sold in packages of 3-6 at a discount to the patients. The treatment for $950 often includes micro-needling and injections and the kit used to aid with the process is called TRUE PRP. True PRP utilizes a higher concentration of Platelet Rich Plasma and has been proven to be the more effective solution.

PRP Scalp Therapy can be especially beneficial, in conjunction with other non-surgical treatments, in young men, and in females with early stages of hair loss. For men under 35, there is a chance that the rate of hair loss may slow down with PRP Scalp Therapy, and in some cases, the follicle produces hairs with larger hair shaft diameters, and thus it appears as though the hair has grown back.

Most candidates seeking hair loss remedies, are in need of a proper diagnose first. Though male pattern balding seems obvious, sometimes it may not be the cause of the hair loss. Dr. Slater offers Lab work to identify causes and deficiencies that can lead to hair loss.

The most common solutions offered are:

PRP Scalp Therapy, NeoGraft Hair Restoration. NeoLTS Light Therapy in the office, and 

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy can be very effective for men and women who are suffering from hair loss that is hormonally related. Dr. Slater can determine that with a simple blood draw. 

NeoGraft Hair Restoration is the only permanent solution for hair loss. NeoGraft is the best option for folks suffering from a form of hair loss that is most likely to progress and become worse due to genetics. Male pattern baldness is one of those is one of those. NeogGraft is the first FDA cleared FUE system and is often referred to as the “No Linear Scar Hair Restoration Solution” it is is permanent without the headache of a long recovery and pain.

How Does PRP work?

PRP has been in use for decades but is fairly new in the hair restoration field.  Well, when we say fairly new, we mean a bit less than a decade. Within the last 2-3 years, this treatment has been on the news and on various medical shows, the debate goes on. PRP Scalp Therapy is not FDA approved and therefore critics go back and forth about the actual results of PRP as it relates to hair loss and hair restoration.  Dr. Slater utilizes PRP before and after hair restoration and though PRP Scalp Therapy is often used in conjunction with NeoGraft Hair Restoration, it can be effective by itself for the right candidate.  Stress or hormonal changes can often cause temporary hair loss and PRP might just be the boost needed to stimulate those follicles.  The results gained by the treatment are promising for the right candidate.  Dr. Slater recommends 3 treatments 4-6 weeks if you don’t opt for NeoGraft Hair Restoration. And one treatment 2-4 weeks before NeoGraft if you do opt for NeoGraft. He will assess the hair loss and the perfect treatment plan during your free consult.
