Restore Dense & Luscious Hair

Hair restoration is the process of regaining lost hair and improving the appearance of thinning hair. The goal of hair restoration is to restore dense and luscious hair. The methods used can include medical therapy, PRP injections, exosomes, and other advanced techniques. Dr. Gavino will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan to help you achieve a full head of healthy, beautiful hair with minimal side effects and risks.

PRP Injections

The human blood contains numerous components, including red blood cells, white blood cells, plasma, and platelets. The platelets contain a high concentration of growth factors, which are responsible for most of your body’s innate healing and regenerative properties. PRP, short for platelet-rich plasma, is a specialized serum drawn and purified from your blood, and it contains a particularly potent dose of growth factors capable of facilitating hair regrowth.

Hair loss usually occurs because of dormant hair follicles. When there’s insufficient blood flow in the scalp, your hair follicles don’t receive enough nutrients, leading to thinning hair and a receding hairline. During hair loss treatment in Leander, your natural PRP serum is injected into the scalp, the growth factors stimulate cellular regeneration and blood vessel formation, which leads to increased blood flow and nutrient delivery into the hair follicles. Over time, your hair grows denser and more luscious.

Benefits of PRP Hair Restoration:

  • Stimulates hair growth
    Increases blood flow to the scalp
  • Improves the thickness and density of hair
  • Promotes a healthy scalp
  • Minimally invasive procedure
  • Safe and natural
  • No downtime or recovery period
  • Can be combined with other hair restoration treatments
  • Can be used for both men and women

Your Experience

During your PRP hair restoration experience, a small amount of blood is drawn from your arm and placed into a centrifuge. The platelets and plasma are separated from the red blood cells and purified. The PRP serum is injected into the scalp using a fine needle. The procedure is quick and relatively painless, and the entire process takes about an hour. You may experience mild discomfort during the procedure, but it is minimal.

Recovery & Side Effects

Recovery after your hair loss treatment in Leander is minimal, with most patients experiencing little to no side effects. You may experience mild redness, swelling, or discomfort around the injection site, but this usually subsides within a few hours. There is no downtime, and you can return to your normal activities immediately, but avoid strenuous workouts and direct sunlight for a day or two.

The PRP Hair Restoration Results

The results depend on the individual and the reason for hair loss. However, most patients can expect to see an improvement in hair growth, thickness, and density. The effects of PRP hair restoration can be seen as early as 4-6 weeks after the treatment, with maximum results visible after 3-6 months. Most patients need 3-4 sessions spaced a few weeks apart for optimal results, followed by a few maintenance treatments per year to maintain the results.

Exosome Therapy

Exosomes are small, naturally occurring vesicles present in cells, responsible for facilitating communication between cells. They play a critical role in cell growth, repair, and regeneration, which is great for hair loss treatment in Leander. Exosomes are derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and contain a variety of growth factors, cytokines, and other biomolecules that can promote tissue repair and regeneration. Exosomes can improve blood circulation and cellular regeneration to reverse the effects of hair loss and help you achieve luscious hair.

Exosome therapy for hair restoration is a non-surgical treatment that involves the injection of exosomes into the scalp. The exosomes are drawn from the patient’s own blood and are concentrated and purified before being injected into the scalp. The exosomes promote hair restoration by stimulating the growth of new hair follicles and improving blood flow to the scalp, which awakens the dormant hair follicles and leads to dense, luscious hair.

Your Experience

During your exosome therapy session, a small amount of blood is drawn from your arm and processed to isolate the exosomes. These exosomes are then injected into the scalp using a fine needle. This hair loss treatment in Leander is quick and relatively painless, and the entire process takes about an hour. You can return to your normal activities immediately with no downtime.

Recovery & Side Effects

Recovery after an exosome therapy treatment is minimal, with most patients experiencing little to no side effects. There is no downtime, and you can return to your normal activities immediately. However, you may experience mild redness, swelling, or discomfort around the injection site, but these side effects subside within a few hours.

The Exosome Therapy Results

The effects of exosome therapy can be seen as early as 4-6 weeks after the treatment, with maximum results visible around 3-6 months. Multiple sessions are needed for optimal results. The results of exosome therapy can be long-lasting, but maintenance treatments may be necessary to maintain the results.

Medical Therapy

Medical therapy for hair restoration includes using medications to treat hair loss and promote hair growth. These medications can include topical solutions, oral supplements, and injections. The most common medications used in hair restoration include minoxidil, finasteride, and biotin. Medical therapy can be used alone or in combination with other hair restoration treatments, such as PRP or exosome therapy.

Minoxidil and finasteride are two commonly used medications for hair loss treatment in Leander. Minoxidil is a topical solution applied directly to the scalp — it increases blood flow to the hair follicles to promote hair growth. Finasteride is an oral medication that blocks the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that can cause hair loss. Finasteride can slow down hair loss and promote hair growth. Both medications are FDA-approved and safe treatments for hair loss.

Benefits of Medical Therapy:

  • Promotes hair growth
  • Can slow down hair loss
  • Increases blood flow to the scalp
  • Improves the thickness and density of hair
  • Promotes a healthy scalp
  • FDA-approved for hair loss treatment
  • Can be used in combination with PRP and exosomes
