Here at NatureMedica, we combine PRP treatment with Low Level Light Therapy to rejuvenate hair growth for our patients.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a non-invasive treatment that uses the patient’s own blood to promote hair growth. PRP is made by drawing a small amount of blood from the patient and spinning it in a centrifuge to separate the platelets from the other blood components. The platelets are then concentrated and injected into the scalp.
PRP contains a number of growth factors that can stimulate hair follicles and promote new hair growth. PRP has also been shown to improve the blood supply to the scalp, which can also promote hair growth.
PRP is a relatively new treatment for hair rejuvenation, but it has shown promising results in clinical studies. PRP is typically administered in a series of treatments, and patients may see results as early as 3-6 months after treatment.
PRP is generally safe and well-tolerated, with few side effects. However, it is important to choose a qualified and experienced provider for PRP injections.
Here are some of the benefits of PRP for hair rejuvenation:
- Promotes new hair growth
- Improves the blood supply to the scalp
- Thickens existing hair
- Reduces hair loss
- Safe and effective
- Minimal downtime
If you are interested in PRP for hair rejuvenation, talk to your NatureMedica doctor to see if it is right for you.

So, what is PRP?
PRP is injections of a patient’s own platelets to trigger the healing process. There are different types of cells including red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets in everyone’s blood. The platelets are healing cells that clot and promote your body’s healing.
The PRP Process
- The PRP therapy process begins with blood draw from the patient.
- The blood is then rotated, which separates out healing-rich platelets.
- Those platelets are then injected into the patient’s injured tendons, ligaments, muscles and/or joints. In some cases, Dr. Allen will use ultrasound technology to target very specific injuries.
Why choose PRP?
By injecting the patient’s own blood cells to trigger the body’s the healing response, PRP leverages the body’s ability to heal itself and help it heal for good.
