What are the steps involved with PRP hair rejuvenation?

PRP hair rejuvenation involves three main steps: blood draw, centrifuge treatment, and injection.

Step 1

To perform PRP hair rejuvenation, Dr. Khedia first draws a small amount of blood from your arm. He then places this blood in an instrument called a centrifuge.

Step 2

Next, the centrifuge rapidly spins the blood until it separates into groups of red blood cells, platelet-poor plasma, and platelet-rich plasma.

Step 3

After he’s isolated the platelet-rich plasma, a process that takes about 10 minutes, Dr. Khedia pulls it into a syringe and injects it into various spots on your scalp.

Is PRP hair rejuvenation right for me?

PRP hair rejuvenation is a great option for you if:

  • You want to regrow your own hair naturally
  • You don’t want to take hair loss medications
  • You don’t want a hair transplant

If you take blood thinners or suffer from any of the following conditions, PRP rejuvenation therapy might not be right for you:

  • Hepatitis C or another chronic liver disease
  • Low platelet count
  • Any platelet dysfunction syndrome
  • Cancer
  • Thyroid disease
  • Sepsis
  • Hypofibrinogenemia
  • Chronic or acute infections

How long until I see results?

Dr. Khedia will perform initial treatments every four to six weeks, and you’ll likely see initial results within two to three months. First, you will notice that your hair is no longer shedding, and then you will notice regrowth.

Depending on your needs and your response to the treatment, Dr. Khedia may recommend you attend maintenance sessions every three to six months to support continued hair regrowth.

If you’ve been experiencing hair loss and thinning, don’t wait any longer to make a change. To find out if PRP hair rejuvenation is right for you, reach out to the team at Sanjay Khedia, M.D today online or over the phone. They can’t wait to work with you.
