Platelet Rich Fibrin

Are you bothered by hair thinning or loss? Are you looking for an effective treatment to restore hair in affected areas? 

Many men and women suffer from hair thinning and premature balding. Causes for hair loss differ from one person to another.

Dr. Peter Smilovits offers Platelet-rich Fibrin therapy for Hair Loss. PRF procedures involve a simple injection of your own platelets (cells in your blood) into your scalp. This is a safe and effective way to restore hair with minimal to no downtime.

What Is PRF For Hair Loss?

Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) and now also a more effective option Platelet-rich Fibrin (PRF) for hair loss is a series of injections that use the components of a person’s own blood to stimulate, repair, and rejuvenate hair growth. Platelets are small cells in your blood that are involved in the blood clotting process and which contain healing growth factors. Those growth factors are like signals that give instructions to your tissue to regenerate and multiply.

When PRP is injected into the skin, it causes mild inflammation that triggers the healing process. Platelets release growth factors that work with your stem cells to reverse the miniaturization of the follicle and jump-start dormant hair back into the growth stage.

Benefits from PRP Hair Regrowth include:

Increases in the blood supply to the follicle

Increases hair thickness

Stimulates and promotes the growth phase

Balances hair growth cycle

Decrease hair loss

What Is The Procedure Like?

We start with a consultation. During your consultation, we will discuss what causes hair loss and what types of hair loss can be treated with PRF. 

We then develop a treatment plan to deliver optimum results.

Day of your treatment: an anesthetic is applied to the treatment area. We will draw your blood which is then separated and concentrated through a process called centrifugation. We will take only the platelet-rich plasma and inject it into the desired areas of the scalp.
