PRP Hair Therapy works on the basis on utilizing growth factors within the platelets. Seven growth factors exist in normal platelets. The growth factors enter the hair bulb circulation and stimulate the stem cells. This leads to changes in the follicle. Hair loss is one of the most disappointing cosmetic issues that can happen to both men and women. Hair loss can lead to a drastic deterioration in confidence. For those that are looking to reverse the effects of hair loss, PRP therapy is a useful option.

Dr. Rapaport is a renown expert in non-surgical hair loss solutions for men and women. His primary technique to restore hair is PRP. Not all PRP is created equal. Proper injection technique and the method of PRP concertation are both crucial to extract the most benefit for the patients.
The PRP procedure consists of a few steps. During the initial consultation Dr. Rapaport will examine your hairline and order blood tests to determine your current state of health and the likely reasons for hair loss. After the results arrive, Dr. Rapaport will advise on the treatment options and the number of procedures.
During the hair restoration procedure, Dr. Rapaport will draw a small amount of your blood and prepare the concentrated platelet-rich plasma in a PRP centrifuge. In the next step your scalp will be treated with a topical anesthesia. Then Dr. Rapaport will inject the PRP in the areas where you desire hair growth. There will be a few sessions spread one month apart. Hair growth will be noticeable in a few weeks from the first treatment and will keep improving over the course of treatment.
One should note that although the process itself, including the device for separating plasma, has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Injecting into the scalp to treat hair loss has not yet been reviewed. However, Dr. Rapaport noted, PRP has already been used effectively and safely in many other medical fields. These fields include, but are not limited to, Orthopedics, Sports Medicine, Cosmetic Surgery, Oral Surgery and Neurosurgery.
PRP does not work for all types of hair loss. It is important that patients are correctly evaluated by Dr. Rapaport who is a hair expert prior to commencing therapy to determine if they are candidates.

While PRP is not a cure for baldness (Androgenic Alopecia). It offers significant benefits for hair loss sufferers. The genetic medical problem will always remain. However, there is evidence that regular treatments can significantly slow down the effects of Androgenic Alopecia and works to increase hair density.
Treatment will vary based on your need. Initially, your provider may recommend several treatments spaced 1 month apart. After the initial treatment, many physicians suggest maintenance treatments 2-4 times per year.
No, collecting the PRP usually only takes 10-15 minutes. And the PRP treatment itself is even faster. It often takes as little as 3-5 minutes.
There may be some sensitivity. However, most physicians utilize effective anesthetic solutions, such as cold ambient air or a topical analgesic to minimize any potential discomfort. Talk to your physicians about the right option for you.
Not all hair loss is the result of genetics. Certain health conditions can contribute to temporary or permanent hair loss, so it is important to be evaluated by Dr. Rapaport in order to determine the cause. With an accurate diagnosis, it is more likely that you will be able to achieve positive results. Common causes of significant hair loss include:
While the patterns of baldness for men and women differ, they both have a common cause. With male pattern baldness, hair loss typically occurs on the top and front of the head. With female pattern baldness, thinning occurs on the top and crown of the head. This thinning in women often starts as a widening of the center hair part that leaves the front hairline unaffected.
Some health conditions can cause temporary hair loss. In many cases, if the health condition is addressed or managed, the hair will regrow. Some chronic health conditions may alter hormonal balance, nutrition and vitamin absorption and other deficiencies that may lead to hair loss.
Scar tissue caused by physical injury, burns, or cosmetic surgery can interfere with hair growth, damaging the hair follicles and potentially causing permanent hair loss.
An autoimmune disease in which the body attacks its own hair follicles, resulting in sudden hair loss on the scalp, face, and body.
A variant of androgenic alopecia, it is the most common type of hair loss that affects women, although men can also be affected by the condition. It is mainly caused by hormonal disbalances and metabolic deficiencies.
Trauma to the hair follicles by wearing tight hairstyles, such as ponytails, braids, or extensions can cause the hair to stop growing.
I’m very pleased with the treatment for alopecia I have received from Dr. Rapaport. I’ve seen improvement in the thickness and volume of hair covering my scalp. Dr. Rapaport patiently responded to my questions and explained treatment options clearly. The office staff is professional and amicable. If you suffer from hair loss…make an appointment with Dr. Rapaport.
I was referred to Rapaport Hair Institute, by my sister, who was treated for thinning hair by Dr. Rapaport. She only needed one treatment and started seeing results right away. I made my appointment, I remembered being so embarrassed how my hair looked, I barely wanted to take off my hat. The staff was very kind and sensitive to my feelings. I needed more than 1 treatment because, I was suffering from traction Alopecia. I started the PRP treatments with exosomes… A year and a half later my hair is in a much better place. My hair is thicker and longer overall in a healthy growing place. Thank you Dr. Rapaport and staff
