Platelet-rich plasma for Hair Loss


Platelet-rich plasma, also known as PRP,  is a type of regenerative medicine that uses your own blood to stimulate skin rejuvenation, healing, and hair growth. A small sample of your blood will be collected and placed into a centrifuge, which spins the sample and isolates the plasma component from the rest of the blood. The platelet-rich plasma is then injected into the target area, allowing the growth factors to stimulate skin rejuvenation or hair restoration.  By isolating the platelets and growth factors from your blood, PRP injections can improve skin texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, promote hair restoration, and enhance youthfulness. 

Dr. Nabatian frequently combines PRP therapy with microneedling. During the microneedling treatment, a small handheld device is used to create precise, microscopic punctures in the skin. Afterwards, PRP is applied to the skin. Microneedling and PRP work synergistically to trigger the production of new collagen and elastin, which tightens the skin and keeps your skin looking more youthful.
