Regenerate & Restore: Inside Paragon's PRP Hair Therapy
Harness your body's natural growth factors to stimulate hair follicles, increase hair density, and restore fuller, healthier hair growth. PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) for hair restoration uses concentrated platelets from your own blood – delivering powerful growth factors directly to weakened follicles to reverse miniaturization and reactivate dormant hair growth. Each treatment is precisely administered by our medical providers using advanced preparation techniques, designed to address the root cause of thinning hair and help you regain the confidence that comes with a fuller head of hair.
Biology, Growth
Factors and Hair Renewal
At Paragon Sports Medicine, we understand that hair loss affects more than appearance – it impacts confidence and self-image. PRP therapy for hair restoration represents a scientifically validated approach to combating androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss) and other forms of hair thinning. By concentrating platelets and their growth factors to 5-10 times normal blood levels, PRP creates an optimal biological environment for hair follicle regeneration. When injected into the scalp at precise depths, these growth factors prolong the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle, increase follicle size, stimulate stem cells in the follicle bulge, and improve blood supply to miniaturized follicles. The result is not overnight hair regrowth, but progressive improvement in hair density, thickness, and overall scalp health over 3-6 months of treatment.
The Science of
Follicle Regeneration
PRP therapy activates multiple biological pathways to reverse hair follicle miniaturization and stimulate new growth. The mechanism is supported by extensive clinical research:
Growth Factor Delivery
PRP contains over 20 different growth factors including PDGF, VEGF, EGF, and FGF that directly stimulate hair follicle stem cells and dermal papilla cells responsible for hair production.
Follicle Miniaturization Reversal
Growth factors counteract the effects of DHT (dihydrotestosterone) on hair follicles, reversing the progressive shrinking that characterizes pattern hair loss.
Anagen Phase Prolongation
PRP extends the active growth phase of the hair cycle while shortening the resting (telogen) phase, allowing hairs to grow longer and thicker before shedding.
Neovascularization & Nutrient Supply
VEGF and other angiogenic factors improve blood vessel formation around follicles, enhancing nutrient and oxygen delivery to support robust hair growth.
Stem Cell Activation
PRP awakens dormant follicular stem cells in the bulge region, stimulating them to regenerate new hair follicles and reactivate miniaturized ones.
From Early Thinning to Advanced Hair Loss:
PRP Applications
Whether you're noticing the first signs of thinning or addressing more significant hair loss, PRP offers a non-surgical, evidence-based solution. Multiple systematic reviews and meta-analyses demonstrate PRP's effectiveness for androgenetic alopecia, with studies showing 30-40% increase in hair density and significant improvements in hair diameter and growth rate. Clinical trials report that 70-80% of patients experience measurable improvement in hair count, thickness, or both after a series of treatments. Unlike topical treatments that require daily application indefinitely, PRP addresses hair loss at the follicular level through periodic treatments. Most patients notice reduced shedding within 2-3 months, with visible improvements in density and coverage appearing at 4-6 months and continuing to progress through 9-12 months.
PRP hair restoration has demonstrated significant effectiveness across multiple hair loss conditions:

Androgenetic Alopecia (Male) (pattern baldness, crown thinning)
Addressing male pattern hair loss in early to moderate stages, slowing progression of crown and vertex thinning, improving density in areas of active miniaturization

Androgenetic Alopecia (Female) (diffuse thinning, widening part)
Treating female pattern hair loss with diffuse thinning, reversing progressive widening of the central part, increasing overall scalp coverage and hair density
Hair Quality & Maintenance (texture, strength, growth optimization)
Improving hair shaft thickness and strength, enhancing overall scalp health and follicle function, maintaining results in patients on finasteride or minoxidil
The PRP Hair Procedure:
Targeted Delivery. Biological Precision.
Blood Collection & Processing
A small blood sample is drawn and processed in a medical-grade centrifuge to isolate and concentrate platelets to therapeutic levels (typically 5-10x baseline concentration).
Scalp Assessment & Preparation
Your provider evaluates your pattern of hair loss, identifies treatment zones, and cleanses the scalp. Optional nerve blocks or topical anesthesia may be applied for comfort.
PRP Activation & Preparation
The concentrated PRP is activated to release growth factors and may be combined with additives to enhance efficacy and extend bioavailability of growth factors.
Precise Scalp Injection
Using fine needles, PRP is injected throughout areas of thinning at the precise dermal depth where follicles reside (typically 2-3mm), ensuring optimal growth factor delivery to target tissue.
Post-Treatment Protocol & Planning
You'll receive instructions for gentle scalp care, activity modifications for 24-48 hours, and scheduling for your treatment series to optimize follicle response and hair regrowth.
Expertise That Drives Results
PRP effectiveness for hair restoration varies significantly based on preparation and technique. Success requires three essential elements:
With extensive experience in regenerative medicine and a commitment to evidence-based protocols, our providers deliver the technical precision and comprehensive care that separate meaningful hair restoration from disappointing outcomes.
Why Choose PRP for Hair Regrowth
Non-Surgical & Minimally Invasive
An office-based procedure requiring no incisions, general anesthesia, or surgical recovery. Unlike hair transplant surgery, there are no linear scars, no donor site depletion, and minimal downtime.
Scientifically Validated Effectiveness
Multiple systematic reviews and clinical trials demonstrate significant improvements in hair density, hair count, and hair shaft diameter with PRP therapy for androgenetic alopecia.
Natural & Biocompatible
Because PRP uses your own blood components, there's virtually no risk of allergic reaction or rejection. No foreign substances or synthetic materials – just your body's own growth factors concentrated and delivered to follicles.
Addresses Underlying Follicle Dysfunction
Rather than simply covering bald areas or masking symptoms, PRP treats the biological dysfunction occurring within miniaturized follicles – reversing damage at the cellular level.
Synergistic with Other Treatments
PRP enhances the effectiveness of minoxidil and finasteride, can improve outcomes from hair transplant procedures, and works synergistically with other regenerative therapies for comprehensive hair restoration.
