Once the blood is spun down and the PRP is removed it is activated just prior to placing it into the desired areas. Although the exact mechanisms are not known it is felt that the anagen or growth cycle is stimulated and prolonged.

PRP stimulates adult hair follicle stem cells deactivated by hair loss genes. This effectively reverses the hair follicle miniaturization process that eventually leads to thinning hair and baldness by reinvigorating dormant follicles and bathing them with PRP which is rich in growth factors and nutrients for stimulating hair growth. By this mechanism, PRPinjections stimulate hair growth and sustain viable native hairs longer. This means that you need to have some native hairs in the area of treatment in order for it to be successful. It will not work in a completely bald area or in areas of scars etc. We are not exactly sure on how frequently you will need the PRP injections currently we feel most people are having good results up to 6 month intervals. Many people require several months for the first treatment to manifest its effects.

There are several mechanisms to "activate" the factors in the PRP. When used in conjunction with surgery we have found that the "trauma" of creating incisions in the scalp stimulates the body to create those factors and when the PRP is injected or applied the bodies own natural process causes the PRP to begin its work. This is what the micro needling does. It brings your own factors to the area and then the concentrated PRP.

There are kits available that also contain those factors required to stimulate and activate the PRP. The micro needling or trauma method will create a little more redness and occasionally bruising than the nonautologous activation method. Either way there are some needles involved.

EXOSOMES

Exosomes Therapy for Hair Loss: A Breakthrough in Regenerative Medicine

Welcome to our practice, where we strive to offer the latest advancements in regenerative medicine to address a variety of health concerns, including hair loss. One of the most promising treatments we offer is exosome therapy.

What are Exosomes?

Exosomes are tiny vesicles (or sacs) secreted by cells that play a crucial role in cell-to-cell communication. They contain various bioactive molecules such as proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, which can influence the behavior of target cells. In regenerative medicine, exosomes have gained significant attention due to their ability to stimulate tissue repair and regeneration.

How Does Exosome Therapy Work for Hair Loss?

Exosome therapy for hair loss involves the use of exosomes derived from stem cells, typically mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). These exosomes are rich in growth factors, cytokines, and other signaling molecules that promote hair follicle growth, improve hair density, and prolong the hair growth cycle.

When injected into the scalp, exosomes exert their regenerative effects by:

1. Stimulating Hair Follicle Stem Cells: Exosomes contain growth factors like FGF, VEGF, and PDGF, which activate dormant hair follicle stem cells, promoting hair growth.
2. Reducing Inflammation: Chronic inflammation in the scalp can contribute to hair loss. Exosomes have anti-inflammatory properties, helping to create a more conducive environment for hair follicle regeneration.
3. Improving Blood Circulation: Enhanced blood flow to the scalp delivers essential nutrients and oxygen to hair follicles, promoting healthier hair growth. Exosomes can stimulate angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, supporting improved circulation.
4. Protecting Hair Follicles: Exosomes can shield hair follicles from damage caused by oxidative stress, environmental factors, and hormonal imbalances, helping to preserve existing hair and prevent further loss.

Benefits of Exosome Therapy for Hair Loss

• Non-surgical: Exosome therapy is a non-invasive treatment that involves injections into the scalp, making it a safe and convenient option for patients seeking hair restoration.
• Natural and Biocompatible: Exosomes are derived from natural sources, making them biocompatible with the body and minimizing the risk of adverse reactions or rejection.
• Minimal Downtime: Unlike surgical hair restoration procedures, exosome therapy typically requires minimal downtime, allowing patients to resume their daily activities shortly after treatment.
• Long-lasting Results: Many patients experience noticeable improvements in hair density, thickness, and overall quality within a few months of undergoing exosome therapy. Results can be long-lasting with proper maintenance and follow-up treatments.

Is Exosome Therapy Right for You?

Exosome therapy for hair loss is suitable for both men and women experiencing various forms of hair thinning or hair loss, including androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness) and telogen effluvium. However, individual results may vary, and candidacy for treatment will be determined during a personalized consultation with our experienced medical team.
