-
PRF uses your own blood to create a fibrin matrix rich in growth factors, making it a natural and biocompatible treatment with minimal risk of allergic reactions or complications.
-
The growth factors in PRF help to activate dormant hair follicles, promoting new hair growth and thickening existing hair.
-
PRF can lead to fuller, denser hair by strengthening hair follicles and encouraging the growth of thicker hair strands.
-
PRF Hair Restoration is a non-surgical procedure, involving a series of injections, making it a minimally invasive alternative to hair transplants.
Benefits to PRF Hair Restoration

Since the procedure is non-surgical, there is little to no downtime, allowing patients to resume their daily activities shortly after treatment.
-
With a series of treatments, PRF can provide long-lasting improvements in hair growth, offering a sustained solution for hair thinning or loss.

PRF promotes better circulation and nutrient delivery to the scalp, improving overall scalp health, which is essential for hair growth.
-
The procedure can be tailored to each patient’s specific needs, addressing individual areas of concern and optimizing results.
Treatment Areas
Crown of the Head:
This area, also known as the vertex, is a common site for hair thinning and is often targeted to improve hair density.
Hairline:
PRF can be used to restore and strengthen a receding hairline, making it a popular option for those experiencing early stages of hair loss at the front of the scalp.
Temples:
The temples are often among the first areas to experience hair thinning, especially in male-pattern baldness, making them key targets for PRF treatment.
PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) Hair Restoration can be applied to various areas of the scalp where hair thinning, hair loss, or receding hairlines are a concern. Here are the primary treatment areas:
Top of the Scalp:
PRF can address diffuse thinning across the top of the scalp, helping to create a fuller, thicker appearance.
Part Line:
Women often experience thinning along their part line, and PRF can help restore hair density in this specific area.
Patchy Areas:
Any localized patches of thinning hair or bald spots can be treated with PRF to encourage hair regrowth and even out the overall appearance of the hair.
AM I A CANDIDATE?
AM I A CANDIDATE?
An ideal candidate for PRF Hair Restoration is someone experiencing early to moderate hair thinning or hair loss who is looking for a natural, non-surgical solution.
This treatment is well-suited for individuals who have thinning hair in specific areas, such as the crown, hairline, or temples, and who want to stimulate hair growth and improve hair density. PRF is also a great option for those who prefer a natural approach, as it uses the body's own platelets to promote hair regeneration without the use of synthetic substances or invasive procedures.
Additionally, candidates should have realistic expectations and be committed to a series of treatments for optimal results. Overall, PRF is an excellent choice for those seeking to enhance their hair health and appearance without undergoing surgery.
What to Expect
Consultation and Preparation:
The appointment begins with a brief consultation to review your hair loss
concerns and discuss the treatment plan. The provider will ensure you're a
good candidate for PRF and explain the procedure in detail.
Blood Draw:
A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm, similar to a routine
blood test. This blood is then placed into a centrifuge, a machine that
spins at high speed to separate the blood components.
PRF Preparation:
The centrifuge separates the platelets and fibrin from the rest of the blood,
creating a concentrated layer of Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF). Unlike PRP
(Platelet-Rich Plasma), PRF forms a fibrin matrix that allows for a slower
and more sustained release of growth factors.
PRF Injections:
The prepared PRF is injected directly into the areas of the scalp where hair thinning or loss is present. The injections are performed using a fine needle and are strategically placed to target the hair follicles that need stimulation.
Post-Treatment Care:
After the injections, your provider will offer guidance on post-treatment care. You may experience mild redness, swelling, or tenderness at the injection sites, but these effects typically subside within a few hours to a day.
Follow-Up:
PRF Hair Restoration usually requires multiple sessions spaced a few weeks apart to achieve the best results. Your provider will schedule follow-up appointments and monitor your progress over time.
The entire process is minimally invasive and relatively quick, often taking about a half hour from start to finish. There’s little to no downtime, so you can typically resume your normal activities right after the appointment.
FAQs
-
PRF differs from PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) in that it contains a fibrin matrix, which allows for a slower and more sustained release of growth factors. This can lead to longer-lasting results compared to PRP.
-
Most patients require a series of 3 to 4 treatments, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart, to achieve optimal results. Maintenance treatments may be recommended every 6 to 12 months to sustain results.
-
Some patients may experience mild discomfort during the injections, but most patients find the procedure to be tolerable. Our providers work quickly to minimize any discomfort patients might experience.
-
Side effects are usually minimal and may include temporary redness, swelling, or tenderness at the injection sites. These effects typically subside within a few hours to a day.
-
Results can vary, but most patients begin to notice an improvement in hair texture and thickness within 3 to 6 months. Hair growth continues to improve with subsequent treatments. We have some patients who notice hair growth within a few weeks post their first treatment!
-
There is little to no downtime after PRF Hair Restoration. You can typically resume your normal activities immediately, though it’s advised to avoid washing your hair or exposing the scalp to intense heat or sunlight for the first 24-48 hours.
