PRP Treatment
The procedure of the PRP treatment begins with a small blood sample of the patient placed in a centrifuge in order to separate the white and red blood cells of the plasma. The compound obtained is called platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and is injected into the scalp with a very thin needle. Patients can choose to do this procedure with sedation for their comfort and return to normal activities the same day.
An entire PRP treatment typically takes an hour and a half. First, the nurse draws your blood and places it into a centrifuge where it’s spun at speeds so high that the different parts of the blood become separated. The platelet rich plasma is removed and then injected into your scalp. Your body’s growth factors go to work for the maximum aesthetic outcome. PRP continues to provide rejuvenation for up to three months after the initial injection.
In most cases, hair grows back stronger and more luminous. Different results are obtained depending on the advancement of the androgenetic alopecia, so the sooner the treatment is performed, the greater the possibility of hair regrowth. It is recommended to have a series of 3 treatments. This regenerative therapy also prevents further hair loss. Ask you provider at Turquoise Springs Medical Spa about any of your hair loss concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this be done in one visit?
No. The best results in the medical literature have been seen after three to four treatments spaced about 4 weeks apart. For that reason, our medical director will only do this procedure if you agree to do at least 3 treatments. We wish to make sure we can give you the best result possible.
What results can I expect?
It is possible your hair follicles cannot be stimulated to produce a viable hair follicle again. In most patients, however, hair growth will begin with wispy, fine hair and progress to thicker and more viable hair growth by the end of the third treatment. A fourth treatment may be indicated depending on progress.
How many treatments do I need to see results?
At least three treatments, four weeks apart. At times a fourth treatment is necessary.
Does hair color matter?
However, the younger the patient, the more likely the treatment will be successful. It is better to start when hair is first thinning than to wait until the hair is thinning, graying, or absent.
