How does PRP help with hair growth?

Platelet-rich plasma contains growth factors that encourage new hair growth and stimulate the hair follicles when injected into the scalp.

Does PRP hair treatment hurt?

PRP hair restoration is a non-surgical procedure—ice packs or over-the-counter pain relievers will resolve any immediate discomfort.

What should I expect during my first PRP hair treatment?

PRP hair restoration is a non-surgical procedure, so anesthesia and long recovery periods are not an issue. During your first appointment, you should expect the following: A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm. The sample is placed into a machine (centrifuge) that separates the blood and isolates the platelet-rich plasma portion. Without red blood cells, plasma will look like the color of straw. The PRP is then injected into the scalp at specific intervals, usually an inch apart. Your PRP hair treatment appointment is short and usually takes less than a half-hour. There are no restrictions after the treatment. The most common complaint is that the scalp feels a little tight.

Is PRP hair treatment for hair loss right for me?

You may be a great candidate for PRP hair treatment if any of the following apply to you: You are experiencing hair loss. You are experiencing hair loss somewhat early in life. You have been diagnosed with androgenic alopecia (thinning at the top of the head that is caused by genetics). You are interested in pursuing a combination of treatment strategies to treat your hair loss. You are prepared to have multiple PRP treatments over a period of time.

How does PRP hair treatment work?

Plasma, rich with the platelets' growth factors, is injected across the scalp to encourage new hair growth and stimulate the hair follicles. PRP has been shown to stop the progressive nature of hair loss concerns and increase hair density and overall health.

What are the outcomes?

Most patients see a positive response between three to six months of treatments: Increased hair length, Early regrowth of hair, Less frequent shedding. The best results are seen when patients receive three treatments one month apart. Then a fourth treatment is performed at 9 months. After this initial regimen, maintenance treatments are performed every six to twelve months. Your aesthetic surgeon may recommend combining PRP hair treatments with other hair loss treatment strategies, like topical creams/foams or prescriptions specific to your situation.

What is PRP and how can it help with hair loss?

PRP hair treatment is a non-surgical procedure that uses your body’s own healing power to combat hair loss and stimulate regrowth. After drawing a small blood sample, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is isolated and injected into the scalp, where growth factors promote healthy follicle activity. PRP is also widely used in skin rejuvenation and injury recovery. At Quintessa, we offer this advanced, drug-free treatment to help you restore your hair—and your confidence—with safe, natural results.

If you’re looking for a non-surgical way to restore thinning hair, ask about platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy at Quintessa. Dr. Butz and the expert staff are proud to offer this advanced treatment—schedule your consultation to learn more.

PRP treatment recovery and expected regimen

PRP hair restoration is a non-surgical procedure with little to no downtime. Mild discomfort can typically be managed with ice packs or over-the-counter pain relievers. While most daily activities can be resumed right away, it’s best to avoid strong chemicals, heat styling, or harsh scalp treatments for a few days. Light scalp massage and warm showers can actually help stimulate circulation. Bruising at the injection site is common and usually fades within a few days.

Keep in mind: PRP is not a one-and-done solution. A series of treatments is usually needed for optimal, long-lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions:

How many treatments will I need?

Most patients require an initial series of 3-4 PRP treatments, spaced approximately 4-6 weeks apart. After completing this initial series, maintenance treatments are typically recommended every 6-12 months to sustain and enhance your results. Your specific treatment plan may vary based on your individual hair loss pattern, response to therapy, and personal goals.

When will I see results from PRP hair treatment?

Results from PRP hair treatment develop gradually. Most patients notice decreased hair shedding within 2-3 weeks of their first treatment. New hair growth typically begins to appear around the 2-3 month mark, with continued improvement in thickness and density over the following months. Maximum results are usually visible 6-12 months after beginning treatment, as the hair growth cycle takes time to complete.

Is PRP hair treatment painful?

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during PRP hair treatment. We apply a topical numbing cream before the procedure to ensure your comfort. During the injections, you may feel slight pressure or mild stinging sensations. The procedure is well-tolerated by the vast majority of our patients, and any discomfort resolves quickly after treatment is complete.

How long do results last?

PRP hair treatment results are not permanent but can be maintained with ongoing care. Without maintenance treatments, improvements typically last 12-18 months before gradually diminishing. With recommended maintenance sessions every 6-12 months, many patients enjoy continued hair growth and thickness for years. Your individual results may depend on factors such as your age, type of hair loss, and adherence to the recommended treatment protocol.

How does PRP compare to hair transplants?

PRP therapy and hair transplants serve different purposes in hair restoration. PRP is a non-surgical option that stimulates existing hair follicles to improve growth, making it ideal for thinning hair or early hair loss.

Hair transplants surgically relocate hair follicles and are typically used for more advanced hair loss or baldness. PRP offers minimal downtime and natural-looking progressive results, while transplants involve surgical recovery but provide permanent placement of hair follicles. Many patients choose PRP first, while others combine both treatments for comprehensive results.

Are there side effects?

Most patients tolerate PRP hair treatment very well, but temporary side effects may include:

Mild Pain or Tenderness: The injection sites may feel sensitive for 1-3 days after treatment
Redness at Injection Sites: Typically subsides within 24-48 hours
Minor Swelling: Usually resolves within 48 hours
Temporary Headache: Some patients experience mild headaches that respond well to over-the-counter pain relievers
Initial Shedding: Some patients experience a brief “shedding phase” as the hair growth cycle resets, which is actually a sign that the treatment is working

These PRP hair treatment side effects are generally mild and short-lived, allowing most patients to return to normal activities immediately after treatment.

What is Exosome Therapy?

In addition to PRP, Quintessa offers exosome therapy as an optional add-on or standalone treatment.

Exosomes are cell-derived messengers used in regenerative medicine to support healing and tissue repair. Some patients choose to include exosomes in their treatment plan as part of a personalized approach to overall scalp and skin health. Our medical team can help you determine if exosomes are a good fit for your goals.
