PRP therapy utilizes your body's own platelet-rich plasma to stimulate hair follicles, promoting new growth and enhancing overall hair quality. This non-surgical treatment is minimally invasive and involves little to no downtime, making it an ideal choice for individuals seeking results without the need for a more invasive procedure.
PRP therapy holds exciting potential for promoting beard growth. This innovative treatment has demonstrated promising results by invigorating dormant hair follicles, thereby encouraging the flourishing of facial hair. However, it's essential to bear in mind that the success of PRP therapy depends on the presence of a sufficient number of active follicles in the intended beard growth area.
At our Toronto Clinic, we recognize that each person's hair loss journey is unique, which is why we specialize in PRP therapy and tailor our approach to suit each individual's needs.
Here are some of the benefits you can expect from treatment:
Just like all procedures conducted at our clinic, an initial consultation with one of our highly skilled medical professionals will take place. During this consultation, we will discuss your concerns, treatment expectations and briefly review your pertinent medical history. This information is vital to ensure that we can deliver the results you desire while maintaining realistic expectations.
We will start by collecting a sample of your blood. Subsequently, we will securely store the blood sample in a container and place it within a centrifuge device. The centrifuge operates at high speeds, effectively separating the plasma from the red and white blood cells. The extracted plasma is then processed and prepared for your treatment. You may experience momentary discomfort during the injections, and there could be occasional redness and bruising immediately after the treatment. However, these effects typically resolve rapidly. To enhance your comfort during the procedure, a numbing cream is applied. Typically the procedure last from 60-90 minutes depending on the area we are treating.
To maintain the best results, refrain from touching the treated areas for a minimum of 8 hours. Common and temporary side effects, such as bruising, swelling, itching, or discomfort, may persist for up to 5 days. If you encounter any discomfort, you can use Tylenol as directed for relief. Please avoid applying ice as it may reduce inflammation. Additionally, in the week following your treatment, it's advisable to steer clear of blood-thinning substances and direct sun exposure. Staying hydrated and maintaining a healthy diet are also essential during this period.
The number of necessary treatments varies for each patient and depends on the desired outcome. As a standalone therapy, our medical experts suggest a series of three injection sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, for optimal results. It's also advised to have a yearly follow-up treatment to uphold your results.
