What it is
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) hair restoration draws a small blood sample, spins it in a centrifuge to concentrate the growth factors, and injects that plasma directly into the scalp — stimulating dormant hair follicles into an active growth phase.
Benefits
- Non-surgical, uses the patient's own blood — no synthetic products
- Effective for early-to-moderate thinning in both men and women
- Often combined with FDA-cleared low-level laser therapy for a stronger response
- No downtime beyond mild scalp tenderness for a day or two
Cost
Across the Bay Area, prp for hair loss runs $600–$1500 per session. Peninsula cities like Palo Alto and Los Gatos sit at the upper end, while Fremont and San Jose are generally the most competitive.
Recovery
Minimal — mild scalp tenderness or pinpoint swelling for 24-48 hours. Most patients need a series of 3-4 sessions spaced about a month apart, with maintenance every 6-12 months.
Risks
- Temporary scalp tenderness, redness, or swelling at injection sites
- Results are gradual — visible improvement typically takes 3-6 months
- Not effective on scalp areas with no remaining dormant follicles (fully bald areas)
