PRP therapy process
PRP therapy is a three-step process. Most PRP therapy requires three treatments 4–6 weeks apart.
Maintenance treatments are required every 4–6 months.
Step 1
Your blood is drawn — typically from your arm — and put into a centrifuge (a machine that spins rapidly to separate fluids of different densities).
Step 2
After about 10 minutes in the centrifuge, your blood will have separated into in three layers:
platelet-poor plasma
platelet-rich plasma
red blood cells
Step 3
The platelet-rich plasma is drawn up into a syringe and then injected into areas of the scalp that need increased hair growth.
Time in office: 60 – 90 minutes
Recovery time: 2-3 days
Results last: 6 – 12 months (recommended done 1x/month for 3 months to improve hair caliber and hair growth)
$1500 first treatment;
follow up treatment in 4 weeks: $750
