Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP)

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.

If you are still looking for a solution to your hair loss problems, wait no longer! Our offices are one of the few to offer this innovative PRP treatment. At IHRS, our goal is to help you receive expert care when looking to restore your hair. We place the highest priority on quality and service and are committed to helping you discover that the look and feel that you always wanted is attainable. Stop waiting to restore your hair.

New Scientific Breakthrough in Hair Restoration is Here!



IHRS is proud to introduce Platelet Rich Plasma, or PRP Therapy. This revolutionary procedure is changing the hair restoration industry and we can now offer it locally, in Jacksonville. It can be used as a standalone procedure or in conjunction with hair transplants or other hair restoration procedures to help increase the success of your results. You can stimulate hair growth and reverse thinning hair by using your own hair stem cells, in your frontal hairline, crown area, and entire top of your head.

What is PRP Therapy?

PRP, which stands for Platelet Rich Plasma, is a new process in which a clients' own blood cells are used to improve the regrowth of new hair. A client's blood is drawn, then placed in a centrifuge to separate the blood from the plasma, which is rich in platelets. This platelet rich plasma is then injected directly into the client's scalp. The entire process takes about an hour to an hour and a half.

How does it work?

Once the PRP is injected into the client's scalp, it actually releases powerful enzymes that promote the healing of tissue and hair follicles. It contains growth factors that can stimulate the regrowth of your hair and even thickens your existing hair follicles. It's a technology similar to what scientists have been using for years when conducting stem cell research, but without the controversy, because with PRP, we are using your own cells to regrow and strengthen your own hair. It is also currently used by some doctors to heal muscle tissue and allow patients to recover more quickly from surgeries.

Who is a candidate for PRP Therapy at IHRS?

Fortunately, almost everyone is a candidate for this amazing new hair restoration treatment. The best candidates are especially men & women with Male or Female Pattern Baldness or who are just beginning to experience thinning or hair loss and want to stop it in its tracks. It works wonders for people who have undergone hair transplants, increasing the likelihood of successful results. It can also be recommended for those who are looking to regrow or thicken hairs elsewhere on the body, such as the eyebrows.

Still have questions?

Call IHRS at 904-425-5097 for more information or to schedule a free consultation, to determine if PRP Therapy is the right treatment for you. Other options at IHRS include Laser Hair Therapy, Hair Transplants, Sensigraft, and a multitude of other non-surgical hair replacement systems.

Laser Hair Therapy




For so long laser technology has only existed in the world of science fiction, but today lasers have a variety of applications, including treating hair loss. Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a revolutionary, non-invasive alternative to many traditional hair restoration options and at IHRS we are recognized experts in the practice and administration of laser hair therapy.

How Laser Hair Therapy Works
Laser Hair Therapy uses low-level lasers to increase blood flow to the areas of the scalp around the hair follicles. This increased circulation promotes a healthy environment for hair growth, giving the patient thicker, fuller, and shinier hair.

Is Laser Hair Therapy Safe?
Yes. The specific type of lasers used for LLLT meet the international safety standards and the legislative specification for “non-significant risk” products, and is classified as a Class IIIA cosmetic laser.

What Are The Benefits of Laser Hair Therapy Treatment?
·         Laser treatments have shown to greatly help newly transplanted hair by increasing the healing process. In addition to that, here are some other benefits:

  •          Laser therapy may repair damage caused by chemical services
  •          85% of patients say it stops the progression of hair loss
  •          Increased hair strength
  •         May repair and improve hair shaft quality


How Quickly Can I See Results?
Some people have noticed improvement after just five or six treatments. While other clients have indicated that they have experienced hair growth after just 10-12 treatments. Laser Hair Therapy has also been shown to be especially effective when used in combination with a hair loss control program such as our own dhtSENSOR. 


To find out if Laser Hair Therapy is an option for you, call IHRS today for your FREE hair and scalp analysis! Visit www.Hair4Me.com or call 904-425-5097 and let our experts address any questions you may have. Our goal is to help you receive expert care when looking to restore your hair.

Understanding Alopecia




Hair loss is a common problem that affects millions of men, women, and children. For some people hair loss is temporary but for countless others hair loss is a persistent problem that seems to have no end. While people experience hair loss for a variety of reasons, the most common cause of hair loss is Alopecia. While Alopecia describes loss of hair from areas where hair normally grows. It comes in a variety of patterns with a variety of causes.

Alopecia Areata (AA)
Alopecia Areata is a common autoimmune disorder that occurs when the immune system of the body targets the hair follicles and disturbs the natural hair growth and formation. With Alopecia Areata, hair falls out leaving small smooth bald patches on the scalp.   

Alopecia Totalis (AT)
Alopecia Totallis is an autoimmune disorder that results in the total loss of hair, but only on the scalp. Just like with AA, this condition occurs when the immune system starts attacking the hair follicles.   

Alopecia Universalis (AU)
Alopecia Universalis is an autoimmune disorder and the most advanced type of Alopecia. This condition results in the total hair loss all over the body, including eyebrows, eyelashes, and nasal cavity. It’s especially important for those with this condition to take extra care to protect themselves from the sun, bacteria and other potentially harmful elements.

Alopecia Barbae
Alopecia barbae is a form of Alopecia Areata that is localized to the beard area. It can be a single bald patch or more extensive hair loss across the whole of the beard area. While the exact cause of this condition is still unknown, studies indicate that heredity and autoimmune diseases might play a factor.

Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA)
Androgenetic Alopecia, more commonly known as Male & Female Pattern Baldness, is the most common form of hair loss in both men and women. For men who experience male pattern baldness their hairline recedes causing an “M” shape to form. Their hair also thins near the top of their head causing partial or complete baldness. For women who experience female pattern baldness their hair becomes thinner all over the head, but the hairline does not recede. Women who experience Androgenetic Alopecia rarely go completely bald. Researchers have found that a variety of genetic and environmental factors likely play a role in causing Androgenetic Alopecia.

Scarring Alopecias (Cicatricial Alopecias)
The term "Cicatricial Alopecias" refers to a diverse group of rare disorders that destroy the hair follicle, replace it with scar tissue, and cause permanent hair loss. While the cause of this condition is not well understood, what is known, is that redness, heat, pain, or swelling occurs at the upper part of the hair follicle.

Traction Alopecia
Traction Alopecia is a type of hair loss that occurs over time and is caused by putting the hair under constant strain or tension. The constant tension in the affected area either pulls out the hairs' roots completely, or causes the follicles to become inflamed. Over time the damage to the follicles can cause them to waste away or stop producing hair all together. This condition is most commonly found in people with ponytails or cornrows who pull on their hair with excessive force.

If you’re ready to fight back against Alopecia then IHRS is here to help. At IHRS, we can help determine the root of your problem and provide hair restoration solutions that are designed specifically to meet the individual and unique needs of each of our clients.
