Hair of Austin at Austin Face & Body
A holistic approach to hair loss
Hair loss can be a distressing experience for both men and women. At Hair of Austin at Austin Face & Body, we will assess the extent of your hair loss, the underlying cause of your condition, and your age and general health, to decide upon an appropriate treatment approach. In most cases, we opt for a custom blend of procedures and medications that, when combined together, can restore your naturally thick and healthy hair.
PRP Therapy: A three-step process
Step One: The first step of PRP therapy involves drawing blood from your arm. This is the blood that will be used for the procedure.
Step Two: Next, the collected blood will be placed in a centrifuge. This machine will spin the blood to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the platelet-poor plasma and red blood cells.
Step Three: The platelet-rich plasma will be injected into areas of your scalp that are in need of new hair growth.
The entire procedure takes about 45 minutes to complete, depending on the size of the treatment area. After your appointment, the injection site may be sore for up to three days. You may resume hair coloring treatments one week after PRP therapy. Your full results will be apparent within six months, and we recommend maintenance treatments every four to six months.
