Hair Restoration at Family Medicine NYC

PRP Hair Restoration treatment doesn’t require any surgery and uses growth factors of your body to stimulate hair follicles. This makes your hair thicker, denser, and healthier overall.

In the microneedling procedure, small microchannels are created in the scalp to stimulate the body’s natural healing response and enhance the absorption of the PRP addition. Microneedling and PRP work together to provide improved results.

• Blood Draw and PRP Separation:A small amount of blood is collected and submitted to a centrifuge to extract platelet-rich plasma.
• Microneedling:A professional-grade tool is used to create tiny channels in the hair-thinning regions. This helps PRP to inject into the hair follicles and stimulate them.
• PRP Injection:A fine needle is used to carefully inject the concentrated PRP into the right spots.

• Blood Draw & PRP Separation:A small amount of blood is drawn and placed in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma.
• Microneedling:A professional-grade device is used on areas of thinning hair to create micro-channels for better PRP absorption and follicle stimulation.
• PRP Injection:The concentrated PRP is carefully injected into the targeted areas using a fine needle.

• Immediate:Mild redness, swelling, or tightness in the scalp, usually resolving within 24–48 hours.
• First Few Weeks:Temporary hair shedding is a normal occurrence. This means hair follicles are about to enter a new growth phase.
• Ongoing:Early signs of thicker hair and less thinning can be seen from 3 to 6 months. Between 6 and 12 months, there can be a significant difference in density and scalp coverage.

We suggest three treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart for the best results. After that, maintenance sessions every 6 months and then every year.

Absolutely. PRP employs your own blood, while microneedling is a low-risk procedure. Side effects are typically minor and fade away on their own.

• Months 1-3: Hair shedding reduced
• Months 3-6: Enhanced thickness and less visible hair thinning
• Months 6-12: Clearly noticeable hair density and scalp coverage
