Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections are a groundbreaking regenerative therapy for hair thinning and hair loss. Dr. Gelber offers PRP injections in Toluca Lake, Burbank, Studio City, and North Hollywood as a part of a holistic plan for hair loss. This cutting-edge therapy harnesses the body’s natural healing abilities, using concentrated platelets to promote blood flow and reactivate hair follicles to grow hair.
What Are PRP Injections?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy for hair loss involves drawing your own blood, spinning it to concentrate platelets rich in growth factors, and injecting this plasma into your scalp to stimulate dormant hair follicles, reduce thinning, and promote thicker hair growth, particularly effective for androgenetic alopecia (pattern baldness) and early hair loss. It’s a natural, non-surgical option.
What Happens During The Treatment
During PRP injections in Toluca Lake, Burbank, Studio City, and North Hollywood you will have a small amount of blood drawn from your arm, much like a regular blood test. This blood is placed in a centrifuge, which separates the platelets and growth factors from other components.
After using a numbing cream, the concentrated PRP solution is carefully extracted and injected directly into the scalp at multiple sites. The entire procedure is completed in the office and typically takes about an hour.
The Recovery Process After PRP Injections
- You can return to normal activities the same day.
- Avoid washing your hair or using hair products for at least 12 hours.
- Skip heavy exercise, heat styling, and sun exposure for 24–48 hours.
Some mild soreness or redness on the scalp is normal and should go away within a few days.
Dr. Gelber will also schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress after PRP injections in Toluca Lake, Burbank, Studio City, and North Hollywood.
