At Kare Plastic Surgery + Skin Health Center in Santa Monica, Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is used to enrich the growth factors within the hair follicles of the scalp. PRP has also been shown to decrease inflammatory mediators that are responsible for some types of alopecia or skin reaction. The stimulation of hair follicles is seen in patients after PRP therapy.
PRP treatment can be performed using local anesthesia in a clinic setting. Results are usually seen within months after treatment as the hair follicles begin to grow. Both men and women are candidates for PRP Hair Restoration.
