PRP Hair Restoration

Thinning hair can affect how you feel about yourself, especially when it seems to happen faster than you expected. PRP hair restoration is a non-surgical hair restoration method that uses concentrated growth factors from your own blood to stimulate dormant hair follicles and support regrowth over time.

At Physician Artistry in Sterling, VA, Dr. Bruce Thomas provides PRP for thinning hair as part of a whole-body approach to wellness. This is not a quick fix, but many patients experience noticeable improvement in hair density and thickness with consistent treatment.

What Is PRP Hair Restoration?

Platelet-rich plasma therapy involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, and injecting it into areas of thinning or hair loss on your scalp. These growth factors may help wake up inactive follicles and encourage new hair growth.

• Uses your own blood, so no synthetic ingredients or medications
• Supports the body's natural healing and regeneration process
• Can be used on its own or combined with other hair loss treatments
• Safe for men and women experiencing early to moderate thinning

What to Expect During Treatment

Your session starts with a blood draw, similar to routine lab work. The blood is then processed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets. Dr. Thomas injects the PRP into targeted areas of your scalp using a fine needle.

• Session length: 45 to 60 minutes
• Discomfort: Mild, temporary. A topical numbing cream can be applied before injections
• Downtime: Minimal. You may have slight redness or tenderness for a day or two
• Results timeline: Most patients begin to notice changes around 3 to 4 months. Full results develop over 6 to 12 months with a series of treatments
• Maintenance: Follow-up sessions every 4 to 6 months help sustain results

Who PRP Hair Restoration Is For

This treatment works best for patients in the early to moderate stages of hair thinning. It may not be effective if hair follicles are completely inactive or if hair loss is very advanced.

• Men and women experiencing gradual thinning or a widening part
• Patients looking for natural hair restoration methods without surgery
• Those with androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss)
• Anyone wanting to support overall scalp and follicle health
• Patients seeking effective hair loss solutions that fit into their routine

If you're unsure whether PRP is right for you, Dr. Thomas will assess your hair loss pattern and discuss realistic expectations during your consultation.
