Hair loss can be a stressful and emotional experience for many people because hair is part of your identity. Yet, as we age, it is normal for hair to gradually thin and change texture, however, some people lose hair at a more drastic rate than others.
While the rate of hair loss will vary among individuals, common causes may include physical stress, pregnancy, certain prescription medications, vitamin deficiency, autoimmune disorders and hereditary pattern baldness.
Reasons for hair loss can be numerous but at DMGAesthetics, we offer a revolutionary solution for hair restoration that may be the answer to your hair loss problems.
The platelet-rich plasma procedure for hair restoration, or PRP, is designed to produce natural hair regrowth through the collection of your own blood and platelets. During your visit, a small amount of blood will be drawn and mixed with a cell separator gel and your PRP will be injected into your hair loss area to stimulate regrowth.
