Hair Restoration

What to Expect on the Day of Hair Restoration

We strive to have all our patients feeling relaxed and confident when it comes time for the procedure. The day of your appointment for Hair Restoration may look different depending on the specific restoration plan; below is a breakdown of what it may look like for PRP or MDPen Microneedling.

PRP Hair Loss Treatment:

PRP Restoration treatment consists of two major parts; the blood draw, and injections into the scalp. We start with a cleanse of your scalp, followed by a numbing cream. Then our technician will draw blood from a vein, this blood will be placed into a centrifuge which rotates to separate the plasma from the red blood cells, and then transferred to a syringe for injection into the receding follicles. PRP treatments usually take one hour.

MD Pen Microneedling:

This process is minimally invasive, the actual procedure time can vary based on the size of the treatment area, but it generally takes less than 10 minutes. We may choose to use a topical or local anesthetic to ease any pain. The microneedling procedure begins with our microneedle pen; the MDPen looks like a regular pen but contains tiny needles at the end. Our skilled technician will use the mechanical action of the pen to allow these needles to puncture the scalp and cause minor surface wounds. Patients describe this feeling as a miniature prick, that becomes numb after a few minutes. After the scalp microneedling is completed, you’ll experience some redness and bleeding, which is normal.
