About Microneedling with PRP
When used with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), Microneedling can stimulate a renewed blood supply and proper nutrients to deprived hair follicles, which can work to restore your hair growth process. The renewed growth helps to fill in areas of receding or thinning hair in both men and women. PRP is a natural serum derived directly from your own cells to initiate regeneration. Microneedling allows us to get a deeper penetration of PRP infused into the skin, amplifying our hair restoration abilities.
Blood is drawn from the arm in the same way as with any blood test. Then, using a centrifuge and a special method, platelet rich plasma is isolated the resultant growth factors. PRP is spread across the scalp during the microneedling procedure and injected directly into the scalp using a very thin needle. Once injected, the platelets immediately activate the body’s localized stem cells and begin rejuvenating and revitalizing the scalp to produce growth. The procedure is very tolerable with minimal discomfort and little to no downtime.
