PRP Hair Restoration
A non-surgical option for early to moderate thinning — your own platelets, concentrated and placed where follicles need support.

Is PRP Right for You?
Best for Active Follicles
PRP works where follicles are thinning but still alive — recent or progressive thinning, not long-standing bald areas.
Men & Women
Early pattern thinning in men (including many of our hormone-therapy patients) and diffuse thinning in women respond best.
An Honest Assessment
Dr. Ferrel examines your scalp and history and tells you plainly whether PRP is likely to help — and if it isn’t, she’ll say so.
What to Expect
A small sample of your blood is processed with FDA-cleared equipment to concentrate platelets and growth factors, which are injected into the scalp. Hair responds on its own cycle — changes build gradually over months.
- A series of sessions about a month apart, then maintenance
- 45–60 minutes per visit, minimal downtime
- Can be combined with prescription topical or oral therapy
Honest Expectations
Published studies and clinical experience suggest PRP can improve density and thickness for well-selected patients, but responses vary and no result can be guaranteed. This is a medical treatment tailored to you — not an overnight fix.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it hurt?
Most patients describe brief pinching during injections; numbing options make it very tolerable.
When will I see results?
Because hair grows in cycles, visible changes typically take three to six months from your first sessions.
