What Is Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy?

PRP therapy uses concentrated plasma from your blood to help regenerate the hair follicles and stimulate new growth. The process involves drawing a small blood sample, isolating the platelets and growth factors, and injecting this rich plasma directly into thinning areas on the scalp.

This approach activates dormant follicles and strengthens fragile hair strands at the root level. Most patients receive three treatments over three months, followed by a booster every 6 to 12 months to maintain results. Results typically appear around month three, with full benefits developing over a year.

“I have had nothing but a great experience with Medi Tresse. Sarah has been AMAZING from my very first appointment, where she took the time to explain the different treatment options and what kind of results I would get, and we worked together to pick the best option for me. I have been doing the PRP treatments–both regular and painless (the painless is worth it!), and I believe they have helped. I can't wait to stay on track to see even more progress with my hair regrowth. Highly recommend!!” — Alicia Aniello
