A downside to PRP therapy for hair loss is that treatment is expensive and rarely covered by medical insurance.
Numerous research studies have found that PRP therapy may help promote hair growth, increase hair thickness, and quality of hair growth by directly targeting the hair follicle.
The beneficial effects of PRP therapy for hair regrowth may vary for each person. In studies, PRP treatment showed positive effects up to 12 months after the last treatment, with maintenance treatments recommended for sustained results.
PRP therapy is generally considered safe, with minimal risk of adverse reactions since it utilizes your body’s own blood components. However, as with any medical procedure, there may be slight discomfort, bruising, or swelling at the injection site.
While PRP therapy is a promising option for many individuals with hair loss, it may not be suitable for everyone. Our Nurse Practitioner conducts a thorough evaluation during the consultation to determine if PRP therapy is right for you based on your medical history and individual needs.
