PRP Hair Restoration in Cincinnati Ohio
Stimulate Hair Growth.
PRP Hair Restoration in Cincinnati Ohio is a revolutionary procedure for millions of men and women facing premature hair loss. PRP Hair Restoration uses your own Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and injects it back into the scalp to encourage new hair growth.
The application of PRP causes miniaturized hair follicles to enlarge, stimulating the hair regrowth process.
The Causes of Hair Loss
Alopecia, also known as hair loss, is a condition that affects over 40% of women by age 40 and 85% of men by age 50.
Hair loss can be the result of heredity, hormonal changes, medical conditions or medications. Anyone — men, women and children — can experience hair loss.

Process & Results
PRP Hair Restoration
Step 1.
The Consultation
Consultations are performed by our physicians and licensed nurse practitioners. At this visit, the medical provider will choose the treatment best for you. The treatment then will be scheduled for your next visit.
Step 2.
Prepare the PRP
If PRP is the best option for you, your blood will be drawn. Using a centrifuge, the blood will be spun to isolate platelets (also known as platelet rich plasma, or PRP). This portion takes approximately 15 minutes in the office.
Step 3.
Microneedle into the Scalp
The PRP or growth factor is then placed on the scalp and driven into small channels created by a microneedling device. Nitrous Oxide is available for pain tolerance during the entirety of the procedure. This portion take approximately 20-30 minutes to complete.
Step 4.
Recovery
It is common to feel soreness and flaking on the scalp, usually resolved within a week. We ask you avoid water for 8 hours post treatment and avoid shampoo or serums for 24-48 hours. We recommend taking Tylenol or Ibuprofen, post treatment to help manage discomfort.
Step 5.
Repeat
Our treatment protocol consists of 1 treatment every 1-2 weeks for 6 sessions.
Step 6.
Results
New hair growth can be seen as early as three months, but is typically evident between four to eight months and will continue to improve up to a year after treatment. Every patient will need maintenance treatments, at least on an annual basis, but sometimes more frequently.
How does PRP hair restoration work?
What is PRP? Platelet Rich Plasma, PRP, is created from a small sample of the patient’s blood that is spun in a centrifuge and divided into its separate components. Activation of the PRP results in release of at least 8 different growth factors that would normally be used to heal injured tissue. These growth factors are used in PRP Hair Restoration in Cincinnati Ohio and work like magic to promote angiogenesis (or the formation of new blood vessels), improve blood flow, and are the key to rejuvenating the hair follicle and stimulating local cell growth.
The concentrated platelets in PRP contain bioactive proteins, including the growth factors PDGF (platelet derived growth factor) and VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor). These growth factors initiate and accelerate tissue repair, and have also been shown to have positive effects for hair loss. This safe and effective therapy has been around for decades and used successfully in the science of healing wounds and injuries, most notably with thousands of published papers related to PRP and orthopedic surgery.
A combination of the following therapies have been found to be most effective:
