PRP THERAPY
What is PRP Therapy
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a non-surgical treatment that has been used to promote hair growth and hair health in individuals with hair loss. PRP is a concentrated solution of platelets derived from the patient’s own blood, which contains growth factors that can stimulate hair follicles and improve hair growth.
PRP with ACell Treatment
Stem cells and cellular regeneration are at the cutting edge of hair restoration science. PRP with ACell treatment offers a new way to treat hair loss, strengthen weaker hairs, and possibly stimulate new hair growth without surgery. While no treatment currently exists that can replicate the results of a professional hair transplant, PRP with ACell shows promising results for total hair health. As a leader in innovation in the Hair Restoration industry for over 25 years, Dr. Anthony Mollura uses PRP with ACell treatments in conjunction with other non-surgical treatments to offer a fully customizable treatment plan for each individual patient.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a concentrated solution of platelets derived from the patient’s own blood, which contains growth factors. The growth factors signal your tissue to regenerate. ACell is an FDA-cleared, naturally-occurring extracellular matrix used in regenerative medicine to repair tissues, close wounds, and stimulate hair follicle regeneration. It acts as a scaffold that recruits stem cells to damaged areas. This treatment is appropriate for both men and women that are experiencing pattern hair loss and other forms of hair loss.

How many sessions of PRP are needed for noticeable results?
Most patients require an initial series of 3 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart with a 4th treatment 6 months after. Maintenance treatments every 4-6 months are recommended to sustain results.
Does PRP therapy hurt?
The procedure involves minimal discomfort. A numbing agent may be applied to the scalp before the injections to ensure your comfort during the treatment.
How soon can I expect to see results?
Patients often notice improvements in hair texture and thickness within 3-6 months. Full results typically become apparent after a year of consistent treatment.
Can PRP be combined with other hair loss treatments?

Am I a good candidate for PRP hair loss treatments?
