What is PRF Hair Restoration?

If you need to stop the advance of hair thinning, extensive shedding, or hair loss, PRF Hair Restoration in Pleasanton calls upon your body’s natural resources to trigger healthy hair growth. Our team of medical providers are equipped with a next-generation system that separates a small blood sample into several important base factors. The serum is then injected into your scalp to stimulate dying hair follicles to restore. The PRF Hair Restoration serum he generates is comprised of:

White blood cells and platelets, that stimulate healing and reduce inflammation

Fibrin, which helps with clotting

Growth factors, which stimulate elastin and collagen

Why hair restoration with PRF?

PRF is the next generation PRP, a non-surgical alternative for thinning, balding, receding hairline, excessive shedding, and other types of hair loss. No chemicals, no drugs, just natural hair regeneration with visible results.

Benefits of PRF Hair Restoration

  • 1

    Increases blood supply to hair follicles

    PRF serum stimulates more blood flow to the cells and hair follicles. Better circulation provides your body with more nutrients and building blocks to repair damaged or weakened cells.

  • 2

    Improves hair growth and thickness

    With PRF, hair follicles are stimulated with growth factors that make the follicles stronger, causing them to produce stronger, thicker hair.

  • 3

    Minimally-invasive

    Only a small amount of blood is taken, and once it’s isolated, the PRF is injected into the scalp. No incisions are made, and there is no scarring.

  • 4

    Repairs tissue, triggers natural cell growth

    The growth factors and natural healing qualities that PRF contains repair the weakened or damaged tissues and cells, resulting in stronger, healthier hair follicles.

  • 5

    100 percent natural and additive-free

    PRF comes directly from your own blood. Nothing is added, making the treatment completely natural. There is no risk of allergic reaction.

  • 6

    Contains more platelets than PRP, and other autologous blood concentrates, with up to ten times the quantity of platelets

    PRF is derived differently than PRP. With PRF, the blood is spun at a lower speed, protecting the platelets from damage, and also allowing some of the white blood cells and stem cells to remain in the platelet substance that is used for treatment. Thus, PRF contains more healing factors.

  • 7

    Slow release produces superior hair restoration: The Fibrin Scaffold

    PRP can produce improvements, but PRF takes natural hair regeneration to the next level. The fibrin scaffold in this product allows for a slower release of the growth factors and cytokines, which continue to trigger cell renewal for up to seven days.

PRF vs. PRP

What is EzPRF?

EzPRF is an innovative system that produces powerful, rejuvenating Platelet-Rich Fibrin from your own blood. The EzPRF Mini Spin produces PRF with a centrifuge device. This uniquely gentle device preserves the cells, leaving them undamaged and thus more effective in the process. The EzPRF centrifuge spins the blood at a slower speed than other devices, resulting in significantly more stem cells, growth factors, and white blood cells in the final substance applied to the scalp. This is why PRF obtained with EzPRF is exceptionally effective when it comes to restoring a thick, full head of hair and stimulating hair follicle cell growth.

PRF Hair Restoration – imagine the difference!

As the human body ages, the hair follicles are less active, or can shrink in size, producing finer, thinner, weaker hair strands. Hair loss can also be triggered by health conditions, medications, life events, stress, and nutrient deficiencies. PRF Hair Restoration is an ideal approach for both men and women, and most patients are candidates, as it does not involve foreign or synthetic substances – it is derived from your own blood.

PRF is a natural, non-surgical, minimally-invasive way to improve your hair, your appearance, and your self-esteem. The components of PRF Hair Restoration encourage your hair to become stronger, thicker, and fuller. The PRF Hair Restoration treatment must be performed before the hair follicles stop producing hair.

At Sculpt MD, PRF Hair Restoration is one way a medical provider can help you achieve your aesthetic goals. You’ll meet with your medical provider in an initial consultation where they first ensures he understands your individual concerns. They will examine the current condition of your hair and advise you about PRF Hair Restoration in Danville, and whether this treatment will work for you.

What are PRF Hair Restoration treatments like to experience?

You can undergo PRF Hair Restoration treatments in our luxurious, private Livermore, CA, offices. The procedure starts with taking a vial of blood from the arm, and then processing it in a slow-moving centrifuge. The centrifuge is part of the key to the stellar results of the PRF Hair Restoration treatments, as it garners a more concentrated quantity of platelets, fibrin, and growth factors. Once your serum has been created, one of our medical providers injects it into the thinning area with a microneedle. The number of injections varies, but the entire procedure usually requires only about one hour to complete.

What happens during a PRF treatment?

The first step of your hair restoration in Danville is drawing a small amount of blood, about two teaspoons, from your arm. The PRF is then isolated and purified. It is inserted into the skin via microneedling or by injection directly to the treated area.

During the microneedling portion of the treatment, tiny channels are made on the skin. This will allow the body’s natural response for wound healing to take place, which will produce collagen and elastin. Depending on the size of the area, this can take only 30 minutes.

The second part of the procedure will be the application of the PRF. It will be applied directly to the channels created during the microneedling process to further stimulate the natural healing process and creation of collagen. This will mean an overall enhancement in growth factors. This process can also take about 30 minutes, meaning one treatment will take about 60 minutes on average.

The microneedling combined with the power of PRF allows the treatment to be applied directly onto and into the skin, sinking deeply into the lower layer of the skin. This provides a significant boost in the regeneration ability of the skin, supporting the body’s natural ability to heal and rejuvenate itself. The combination of PRF and microneedling results in smoother, firmer and healthier skin inside and out.

What is the recovery time?

With PRF Hair Restoration treatments, you can return to your usual activities immediately following your session with a medical provider. You experience minor soreness and swelling which can be resolved with over-the-counter medication. We recommend you wait until a day or two to wash your hair or use heated tools like a hair dryer. You also should avoid exercise the day of your treatment. While you may need a series of PRF Hair Restoration treatments for best results, healthy hair growth occurs over time, generally a few months, as the hair follicles restore.
