Hair loss can be an incredibly stressful experience. Most people suffer from various degrees of hair loss as they grow older, but what if you could stop that process? At Rocky Mountain Surgical Arts, we harvest growth factors from your blood to stimulate natural healing and slow down or even halt the progression of hair loss, helping you maintain dense, luscious hair.
The Natural Solution To Hair Loss
Hair loss can take several forms — androgenic alopecia, thinning hair, receding hairline, bald patches on the scalp, and more. Hair loss can also occur because of several underlying factors, such as excess testosterone, years of pulling the hair back tight, and certain lifestyle factors. Until recently, the only reliable hair restoration methods have been surgical, such as hair transplantation. We offer PRP therapy as a natural solution to hair loss, which relies on substances already available in your body, ensuring optimal and natural results.
What is PRP Hair Restoration?
Platelet-rich plasma is a component of your blood with a high concentration of growth factors responsible for most of your body’s healing processes. Hair loss usually occurs because of insufficient blood circulation to the scalp, which prevents the delivery of essential nutrients into the follicles. We draw a small sample of your blood, isolate the PRP serum, and inject it into the scalp. The growth factors stimulate tissue healing and improve blood circulation to activate the dormant hair follicles, leading to hair regrowth.
PRP Hair Restoration Can Correct:
- Androgenetic alopecia (genetic hair loss) in men and women
- Thinning hair or hair loss due to aging or hormonal changes
- Hair loss caused by certain medical conditions or medications
- Hair loss due to stress, nutritional deficiencies, or other environmental factors
- Male pattern baldness
- Female pattern hair loss
- Alopecia areata (an autoimmune disorder that causes patchy hair loss)
- Traction alopecia (hair loss due to tight hairstyles or hair extensions)
- Scarring alopecia (hair loss due to scarring on the scalp)
- Overall hair thinning and loss of hair density.
Benefits of PRP Hair Restoration:
- Non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment for hair loss
- Uses the patient’s own blood, making it a safe and natural option
- Promotes hair growth in various areas of the scalp
- Improves the thickness and density of existing hair
- Reduces the need for ongoing hair loss medications or topical treatments
- Improves self-esteem and confidence

The PRP Hair Restoration Process
During PRP hair restoration, your healthcare provider will draw a small amount of your blood and place it in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other components. The PRP is injected into your scalp in areas where hair loss has occurred. The PRP stimulates hair growth by increasing blood flow and providing important growth factors to the follicles. The procedure concludes within an hour, and you can return to normal activities immediately.
PRP Hair Restoration: Recovery & Downtime
One of the benefits of PRP hair restoration is that there is no significant downtime or recovery period after the procedure. You may experience mild redness or swelling at the injection sites immediately following the treatment, but this should subside within a few hours. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure. However, please follow our aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results and minimize side effects.
PRP Hair Restoration: Results & Longevity
The results of PRP hair restoration depend on the extent of hair loss, your age, and your overall health. Some patients may notice hair growth and thickness improvements within a few weeks to months after the procedure, with optimal results seen after a series of treatments. Most patients need 3 to 6 sessions spaced a month apart for optimal results. After the initial treatments, you may need annual or bi-annual maintenance sessions to maintain the results.
