Get PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy

Visit a dermatologist who offers PRP therapy. A small blood draw is taken, processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, then injected into the scalp at thinning areas. Typical protocol is 3-4 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart, then maintenance every 6-12 months.

Why It Works

PRP concentrates growth factors from your own blood and delivers them directly to hair follicles. These growth factors stimulate dormant follicles and prolong the growth phase. Multiple studies show improvements in hair density and thickness.

Tips

• Costs typically range from $500-$1500 per session and are rarely covered by insurance
• Results vary significantly between individuals
• Avoid blood thinners and anti-inflammatories for a week before treatment
