More than 56 million Americans suffer from thinning hair and hair loss. While hair loss is commonly accepted as something only men experience, over 40% of hair loss sufferers are women. Hair loss can be very emotionally traumatizing but Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy could be the solution that people have been waiting for. IHRS is excited to bring this amazing new treatment to the Jacksonville area. ABC's Good Morning America recently did a segment on PRP therapy talking about the treatment and the experiences that people have had with it. Check out the segment here: http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/video/research-alert-hair-loss-women-38642456

The Science of PRP 

What exactly is Platelet Rich Plasma? PRP basically utilizes stem cell technology but without the controversy because it actually uses your own cells from your body. Our blood naturally contains the platelets that are used within the therapy. The platelets contain growth factors that assist in tissue regeneration and healing. These platelets are what help stimulate the inactive hair follicles into the active growth phase.

What Happens During the Treatment?

PRP is a non-surgical treatment that can be done in our office. When you begin the PRP treatment, our first step is to draw your blood. The blood is then put into a machine that separates the platelets from other blood cells so that only the enriched cells or platelets (PRP) remain. The platelets are then injected into the scalp to help stimulate hair growth, decrease hair loss, and make the hair grow thicker.

During the Good Morning America segment, Robin Roberts spoke to people that have gone through the treatment. Shantelle was one of the women featured who had lost her hair after hormonal changes with her pregnancy. She got the PRP treatment and she said her hair is now “very lush and very beautiful,” following the treatment. Michelle Lowe was another woman featured who used the treatment to bring back the thickness to her hair that she once had. After getting her thickness back from just 2 PRP treatments she said “It’s probably the best thing I have ever done for myself.”

Men- do not worry! PRP is also for you. Almost anyone is a candidate for this revolutionary new treatment. PRP can be used alone or with other treatments such as hair transplants or laser therapy. Results of the treatment will vary depending on whether you are using the treatment for hair loss or thinning hair. Depending on the life cycle of the hair follicle, it could take 2 to 6 months before you are able to see full results.
