For many men and women beginning to lose their hair, or have lost it completely, going bald can often be traumatic. If you are suffering from hair loss, you know firsthand how stressful it can be. Fortunately, there are treatments that can work to effectively stimulate new hair growth in balding areas and eventually restore the hair growth. These treatments come in a variety of applications with many different benefits tailored to work properly with your specific hair loss.

How to Treat – Alone or in Combination

PRP Hair Restoration 

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been shown to have numerous growth factors that aid in restoring hair loss. PRP therapy involves collecting the candidate's blood and spinning it down into a concentrate of plasma that has a high platelet concentration. This is then injected back into the candidate's scalp. Studies have reported enhanced growth after hair transplant surgery and increased hair counts when used in conjunction with PRP therapy.

Microneedling

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy (CIT), is a noninvasive procedure that stimulates new collagen production. Using microneedles, tiny punctures induce collagen and elastin production. The release of these properties combined with richly concentrated serums with vitamins aid in strengthening hair follicles and promoting hair growth.
