Hair Restoration Kirkland: Is PRP Hair Restoration Safe?

By | Hair Restoration

Prior to a Seattle hair restoration consultation, many patients have not heard of PRP hair restoration or platelet rich plasma. Due to this, many wonder: is PRP hair restoration safe? This is understandable if unfamiliar with the non-invasive nature of the procedure.

PRP hair restoration is widely considered a safe procedure. The patient’s blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet rich plasma. No other materials are introduced during the process of preparing the PRP. This results in an extremely low rejection rate for PRP injections. It is also unlikely to have an allergic reaction to the PRP since it comes from the patient’s body. 

Furthermore, the injections themselves carry little risk. Similar to a routine vaccine or injection, PRP hair restoration is no more invasive than these every day procedures. PRP injections are low risk and patients rarely experience any complications. Some side effects common to injections like swelling, redness, tightness, and itching do sometimes occur, but should subside quickly.

Hair Restoration Kirkland: PRP Hair Restoration For Women

By | Hair Restoration, Platelet Rich Plasma

Hair loss related to genetics and aging is usually associated with men. However, women also experience hair loss and thinning related to age and genetics. Like male pattern baldness which is a genetic condition that causes predictable hair loss patterns, female pattern baldness occurs in women.  Female pattern baldness typically occurs along the hair part in what is described as a Christmas tree pattern. In contrast from men, women usually do not experience a receding hairline. PRP hair restoration for women can treat female pattern baldness and slow hair loss.

When treating female hair loss, your Seattle PRP injector will customize the injection sites to fit the pattern of hair loss. While PRP cannot reverse genetics, it can slow the pattern of hair thinning and restore some of the lost hair. This promotes fuller looking hair for longer.

Other than treating differing areas, PRP hair restoration for women is similar to the treatment for men. Many patients see results after four sessions and some choosing to continue maintenance treatments to prevent future hair loss.

The majority of PRP hair therapy patients are men because their hair loss is usually more evident and visible. However, many women struggle with hair thinning and loss without  non-surgical hair restoration options catered to them.
