Restore Your Youthful Head of Hair With PRP Hair Restoration in Houston

It can be a terrible feeling when you first start to notice your hair thinning, receding, or balding. Unfortunately, this is an extremely common issue that can impact both men and women of all ages. For many of us, hair loss begins taking place long before we’re ready for it, which tends to make us feel quite self-conscious about our looks. In many cases, hair loss can even lead to significant feelings of anxiety and depression. PRP hair restoration in Houston may be the perfect solution if you’re interested in a simple hair loss treatment that can create noticeably thicker, fuller hair.

What Is PRP Hair Restoration?

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) hair restoration is a minimally invasive treatment used to help stimulate the growth of thick, luscious hair. PRP hair restoration is frequently used to treat patients dealing with bald spots, thinning hair, and receding hairlines.

PRP hair restoration utilizes platelet-rich plasma from the patient’s own blood, which is then injected into specific areas of the scalp to promote increased hair growth. Platelet-rich plasma is blood that contains a high concentration of platelets, which are packed with cytokines and growth hormones. When this special plasma is injected into an area of the scalp that’s balding or thinning, it stimulates the growth of new, thick hair.

Who Is a Candidate for PRP Hair Restoration?

If you’re an adult who would like to enhance the volume and density of your hair without undergoing surgery, you could be a good candidate for PRP hair restoration. Ideal candidates for the procedure are typically experiencing thinning hair, a receding hairline, and/or balding. The procedure is typically best for individuals in the early or middle stages of hair loss who have dormant hair follicles in the area they’re looking to target. It’s also important that you have at least an average platelet count in your blood and aren’t currently pregnant or breastfeeding.

What Is the PRP Hair Restoration Procedure Like?

Before your PRP hair restoration treatment, you’ll first need to have a consultation with Dr. Sturm to discuss the treatment. She’ll closely examine your hair and scalp and ask you about your specific hair restoration goals. The doctor will also have questions about your health, medical history, and any medications you’re taking to ensure that you’re a good candidate for the procedure.

After you’ve had your consultation, the actual PRP hair restoration procedure is relatively simple. First, one of our doctors will draw a small amount of blood from your arm. That blood will then be inserted into a centrifuge, which will spin it to separate out the platelet-rich plasma. This plasma will then be injected with a fine needle into the areas of your scalp where you’re looking to stimulate hair growth.

What Is the Recovery Like?

Typically, the recovery period for PRP hair restoration is very short. Some patients can resume their normal routines immediately, but you may need to take a day or two off work while you heal. Ideally, you should also avoid strenuous exercise and limit your sun exposure for around a week. To increase your chances of seeing quality results, you will likely need to alter your hair care routine for a few weeks as well.
