What Is PRF Hair Restoration?
PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) therapy is a treatment that uses your body’s own growth factors to stimulate hair growth. The process involves drawing a small amount of blood, extracting the PRF from the blood sample, and injecting the PRF into areas on the scalp where the hair is thinning. PRF is rich in growth factors which can stimulate inactive hair follicles and improve blood supply to the scalp. Studies show that PRF treatments can increase the number and density of hair follicles.
How PRF Helps with Male Pattern Baldness
Male hair loss is commonly caused by androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness). This condition gradually shrinks hair follicles, producing thinner, weaker strands over time. PRP works best in the early to moderate stages of hair loss by increasing hair thickness, slowing further shedding, and improving overall scalp health.
What to Expect During Treatment
One reason why this is such a popular treatment is that it is a quick treatment with minimal downtime. A typical PRF session takes about 60 minutes. Most men need 6 initial treatments spaced about a month apart. Maintenance treatments are recommended every 4–6 months. Visible improvements typically begin within 3–4 months, with continued thickening over time.
