Understanding PRP Hair Treatment in Manhattan

What is PRP Therapy?
PRP, or Platelet-Rich Plasma, is a treatment derived from a patient’s own blood. It involves concentrating platelets found in the blood to create a plasma rich in growth factors. These growth factors, when reintroduced to the scalp, can stimulate hair follicles, encourage hair growth, and improve the overall health of the scalp.
How Does PRP Work for Hair Loss?
PRP therapy works by delivering concentrated platelets and growth factors directly to the scalp. This process stimulates dormant hair follicles, increases blood supply to the hair follicle, and can enhance the thickness and density of hair. It is particularly effective in treating androgenetic alopecia and other forms of hair thinning.

"Over the past several months, I've been receiving platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatments with Dr. Kopelman, and the results have been wonderful. Before starting the treatments, I was experiencing noticeable hair thinning that was affecting my confidence. However, each PRP session has brought about visible improvements."

PRP for Hair Loss New York Process

Consultation and Evaluation: The first step is a thorough consultation to evaluate your hair loss and determine if PRP therapy is the right choice for you. We assess your hair’s condition, discuss your medical history, and tailor a treatment plan to meet your specific needs.
The PRP Treatment Session: During the treatment, a small sample of your blood is drawn and then processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets. The PRP is then carefully injected into the scalp at areas of thinning hair. The procedure is relatively quick and causes minimal discomfort.
Follow-Up and Maintenance: Patients may require multiple PRP sessions, typically spaced a few weeks apart, for optimal results. Maintenance treatments every 6 to 12 months can help sustain the positive effects on hair growth and density.

Frequently asked questions about Platelet Rich Plasma

PRP therapy involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and then injecting this platelet-rich plasma into your scalp. The high concentration of growth factors in platelets is believed to stimulate hair follicles, promote hair growth, and decrease hair loss by enhancing blood supply to the hair follicle and increasing the thickness of the hair shaft.
PRP therapy has shown promise in treating androgenetic alopecia (male and female pattern baldness) and other forms of non-scarring alopecias. However, its effectiveness can vary based on factors such as the individual’s health, the area being treated, and the extent of hair loss. It may not be as effective for those with more advanced hair loss or other types of alopecia that involve scarring.
During a PRP treatment session, blood is drawn from your arm and then processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets. The scalp is usually numbed to minimize discomfort, and the PRP is then injected into areas of the scalp where hair loss has occurred. The procedure typically takes about an hour, and you can usually return to your normal activities shortly afterward with minimal downtime.
The number of PRP treatments needed can vary, but initially, a series of 3 treatments spaced about 4-6 weeks apart is commonly recommended. After the initial series, maintenance treatments every 3-6 months may be suggested to sustain the results. The specific treatment plan can vary based on individual response and the severity of hair loss.
PRP therapy is generally considered safe since it uses the patient's own blood, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or infections. However, as with any injection procedure, there is a potential for side effects such as pain at the injection site, scalp tenderness, swelling, and headache. Infections are rare but possible. It’s important to have PRP therapy performed by a qualified healthcare provider in a sterile environment to minimize risks.
