What is Microneedling with PRP for Hair Restoration?
Microneedling with PRP is a cutting-edge treatment that promotes hair regrowth by creating tiny micro-injuries in the scalp, triggering the body’s natural healing process and stimulating collagen production. PRP which is drawn from your own blood contains concentrated growth factors that encourage the repair of damaged follicles and increase blood flow to the scalp.
Who is a Candidate for Microneedling with PRP for Hair Restoration?
Microneedling with PRP is ideal for individuals experiencing thinning hair, a receding hairline, or mild to moderate hair loss. This treatment can benefit patients with hair loss conditions such as androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss) or those looking to improve scalp health and maintain existing hair thickness. This treatment may not be suitable for patients with more advanced hair loss or underlying medical conditions that affect hair growth.

“I’ve been a patient of Dana’s for several years now, even following her when her practice locations changed. Having seen a few different aesthetics providers, I can attest to both her professional skill and keen aesthetic eye. Dana takes a great deal of time to understand my goals and designs specific treatment plans that will help me meet those goals.”

Your microneedling with PRP session begins with your doctor drawing a small amount of blood, which is processed to extract the platelet-rich plasma. A numbing agent is applied to the scalp to ensure your comfort throughout the microneedling procedure. The microneedling device is then used to create tiny micro-injuries in the areas of the scalp where hair thinning or loss is occurring. These micro-channels stimulate collagen production, improve blood circulation, and prepare the scalp to absorb the PRP. Once microneedling is complete, the PRP is applied to the treated areas, penetrating deeply into the scalp to nourish hair follicles and encourage new hair growth.
Recovery from Microneedling with PRP for Hair Restoration
Recovery from microneedling with PRP is minimal. Some patients may experience mild redness or tenderness in the treated areas, which typically resolves within one to two days. You can typically resume normal activities the same day, although we recommend avoiding harsh hair products and excessive sun exposure for the first few days. To support the healing process, it is important to keep the scalp clean and avoid using styling products immediately after treatment.

How Long Will Results Last After Microneedling with PRP?
Most patients begin to see noticeable improvements in hair density and thickness within three to six months, as the hair growth cycle requires time to respond to treatment. Full results typically appear after a series of sessions. Regular maintenance treatments every six to twelve months may be recommended to sustain optimal results.
