Thinning Hair and Hair Loss

A non-surgical regenerative therapy for men and women at PPMR in Greenville, SC

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy offers a proven and non-surgical regenerative treatment that helps stimulate natural hair growth and strengthen existing hair follicles.

PRP uses a concentration of your body’s own platelets and growth factors to encourage healthier hair growth and improve scalp health to restore hair loss and thinning hair. Because the treatment uses your own blood, it works with your body’s natural healing processes.

How PRP for Hair Loss Treatment Works

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy uses your body’s own regenerative healing factors to stimulate hair follicles and support healthier hair growth.

The process begins with a small blood draw. That blood is then placed in a centrifuge that separates the platelet-rich plasma from the other components of the blood. This plasma contains a concentrated amount of platelets, growth factors, and signaling proteins that help support tissue repair and regeneration. Once prepared, the platelet-rich plasma is carefully injected into targeted areas of the scalp where hair thinning is occurring.

These growth factors help activate several biological processes that are important for hair growth. They can improve blood supply to the hair follicle, stimulate stem cell activity, and encourage new cell growth within the follicle. Together, these processes help create a healthier environment for hair follicles so they can produce stronger, thicker hair.

PRP is particularly helpful for people experiencing hair thinning or early hair loss, when hair follicles are still active but producing weaker or finer hair. By supporting follicle health and improving scalp circulation, PRP can help slow hair loss and encourage new growth.

Clinical studies have found that PRP treatments can significantly improve hair density, thickness, and overall hair growth in patients with pattern hair loss. 

The treatment is performed in the office and typically takes less than an hour. Most patients begin with a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart, followed by maintenance treatments to help sustain results.

Conditions We Treat with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is used in many areas of regenerative medicine to support the body’s natural healing process. Because PRP contains concentrated growth factors from your own blood, it can help stimulate tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and promote healing in several types of conditions.

What Makes the PRP
Hair Loss Therapy Different?

Many hair loss treatments focus only on slowing hair loss. PRP therapy is different because it works by activating your body’s own regenerative processes.

Unlike medications or topical treatments, PRP:

  • Uses Your Body’s Natural Growth Factors

    Because PRP is created from your own blood, it contains powerful growth factors that support natural tissue repair and regeneration.

  • Targets the Health of Hair Follicles

    PRP works at the follicle level, helping create an environment that supports stronger and healthier hair growth.

  • Is Non-Surgical

    PRP hair restoration is performed in the PPMR office and does not require surgery or a lengthy recovery period.

  • Treats Both Men and Women

    Hair thinning affects both men and women, and PRP can help address a variety of hair loss patterns.

Frequently Asked Questions About PRP for Hair Loss Treatment

Clear answers to help you feel confident about your treatment options.

Who is a good candidate for PRP hair restoration?

PRP is often most effective for individuals experiencing hair thinning, early hair loss, or a receding hairline. It works best when hair follicles are still active but producing weaker or thinner hair.

Is PRP treatment painful?

Most patients tolerate PRP injections well, like typical injections. A topical numbing agent can be used to keep you comfortable during the procedure.

How many treatments are needed?

Most patients begin with a series of three treatments spaced about four weeks apart, followed by occasional maintenance treatments to help maintain results.

When will I see results?

Hair growth is seen as the hair follicle goes through it's growth stages. Many patients begin noticing improvements in hair thickness or reduced shedding within a few months as the hair growth cycle responds to the treatment.

Is PRP safe?

Because PRP uses your own blood, the risk of allergic reaction or rejection is extremely low. The treatment has been used successfully in multiple areas of regenerative medicine for many years.

Does PRP work for complete baldness?

PRP works by stimulating existing hair follicles. If hair follicles are no longer active, the treatment may be less effective. A consultation can help determine whether PRP is the right option for your situation.
