PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma, which is rich in natural growth factors. Dr. Ellen Mahony provides this treatment at her office in Westport, Connecticut. She is one of the few female plastic surgeons in Connecticut certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. With decades of surgical experience, Dr. Mahony approaches each treatment with a strong understanding of what her patients need at different stages of life.
How PRP Works for Hair Restoration
The PRP treatment begins with a small blood draw, just like a routine lab test. The sample is placed in a centrifuge, which spins it to separate the platelet-rich plasma.
Once prepared, we inject the PRP into areas of your scalp where your hair is thinning out. A numbing cream is applied beforehand to keep the treatment comfortable.
PRP is typically performed as a series of treatments, with the goal of seeing gradual improvement over several months. Results vary based on your individual hair health and other contributing factors.
What Makes PRP a Popular Choice
PRP is a non-surgical option for those experiencing early hair thinning. Many people appreciate that it works in conjunction with their body’s natural healing process. Benefits include:
- No synthetic chemicals or medications
- Quick, in-office procedure with minimal downtime
- Uses your own blood, reducing the risk of a reaction
- May improve hair density and strength
- Suitable for both men and women with early to moderate hair thinning
- Can be repeated as needed for maintenance
