PRP stands for Platelet Rich Plasma. We take a sample of your blood in our office, extract the PRP, and apply it to your scalp. PRP contains highly concentrated growth factors which, when applied to your scalp, promote new hair growth and improve the health of existing hair.
Hair Restoration
Ask Dr. Shell about her signature Chandler Hair Restoration treatment to prevent hair loss and hair thinning!
Dr. Shell provides the ultimate non-surgical procedure to address hair loss and hair thinning for both men and women.
Highly concentrated growth factors are extracted from your own blood (PRP therapy) to generate new hair growth and thicker hair. We then use a highly specialized technique to add an FDA approved cellular regeneration product known as ACell. ACell has remarkable regenerative properties and works by activating huge numbers of adult stem cells to promote rapid angiogenesis and localized cell growth. We then add a unique combination of microneedling to stimulate circulation directly to the hair follicles.
Addressing the issue of hair loss or thinning as early as possible yields the best results for both men and women. Let us help you to protect, nourish and support your hair follicle growth now and forever.
We locally anesthetize (numb) the treatment site to make the treatment as comfortable as possible. You may experience mild tenderness and swelling at the injection sites for three to five days following treatment. However, there is no downtime after treatment.
One treatment consists of extracting and preparing the PRP in our office, cleaning and anesthetizing the treatment area, injecting the PRP into the scalp, and treating the scalp with microneedling. It takes around 90-120 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.
We recommend one treatment each month for the first three months. If you experience good results after three months, we then recommend one maintenance treatment every three to six months. Add Acell to reduce the frequency of treatments.
You can expect to see improvement in hair texture and thickness and new growth of small, fine hairs within three to four weeks. Please keep in mind that it typically takes six to nine months from the first treatment to see appreciable results.
