PRP hair restoration

Everyone loses a certain degree of hair with age. Although they are dramatic methods of hair restoration that include hair transplantation, men and women alike may benefit from an innovative hair restoration technique that stimulates hair growth and revascularization hair follicles. This treatment is known as PRP or platelet rich plasma and is used more and more commonly for hair restoration in patients who seek an alternative to a hair transplant. PRP is useful for male pattern alopecia as well as brittle hair and women who are going through stressful periods or hormonal changes. This method of stimulating hair growth has many long-term benefits and may be a suitable option for you  if you live in Beirut Lebanon.

How does PRP work?

Within every persons blood is a mixture of plasma, red blood cells, platelets, fibrin, stem cells, and rich growth factors. Platelet rich plasma utilizes these growth factors within blood to stimulate hair growth and blood supply  to dormant or inactive hair follicles. When used for hair restoration, the infusion of platelet rich plasma can stimulate dormant hair follicles so that they can grow thicker, quicker, and more densely.
 
The treatment begins with drawing of your own blood followed by centrifuge purification of the platelet rich plasma portion of the blood. The solution is done  infiltrated back into the hair bearing scalp in order to stimulate hair growth through growth factors contained within the platelets.
 
Patient will note an increase in density, rate of hair growth, and caliber of hair arising from the areas of treatment. We would recommend that you couple  PRP hair restoration with a nutrient rich diet and supplements containing collagen and biotin.
