PRP Treatment for Hair Growth

The Future Of Hair Loss Treatment Looks Bright – Here’s Why!

 

For millennia, men and women alike have been anxious over the loss of their hair. Of course, losing hair isn’t necessarily a signifier of a poor medical condition or bad lifestyle; it can be quite natural, especially in men. That said, losing part of ourselves is never easy, and while many people really do rock the bald look (and may even look better without hair, for example, Jason Statham or Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson), it’s always nice to have more options.

Many treatments have come and gone over the years, and today the full gamut includes hair transplants, pharmaceutical products like finasteride, and promising new applications such as platelet-rich plasma therapy. Moreover, temporary solutions, such as well-applied and secure toupees, provide alternatives.

The future of hair loss treatment is looking brighter than ever. In this post, we intend to explain why:

 

 

PRP for hair growth has become one of the primary options for many private clients seeking treatment. 

 

Platelet-rich plasma for hair growth is applied by drawing the blood safely, processing it, and then injecting it carefully and accurately into the scalp. 

This increases the supply of blood to the follicle and may increase the thickness of your hair. This therapy is well-known and often used to heal injured tendons and musculature. Combined with other medications and therapies, hair growth PRP is considered one of the most reliable and popular options; and is considered one of the more affordable and valuable long-term treatments.

While platelet-rich plasma therapies are considered one of the best methods of treating hair loss now, the future seems exciting as hair follicles have now been grown in labs. This revelation has been suggested to have “wide-reaching implications” such as supplementing hair transplants with extra follicles, while also understanding how cells can regenerate within their “embryonic potential.”

While there’s no brand new miracle-grow solution just yet; we’re one step closer to that reality. Moreover, this treatment could potentially aid those we’re currently discussing, such as platelet-rich plasma therapies, or even aiding with skin grafts after injuries suffered. Science leads medicine, and this is one of the most notable examples of late. 

A drug previously used solely for rheumatoid arthritis, baricitnib is known to inhibit some enzymes known to cause autoimmune disease through molecular signals, these are known as Janus kinases. 

Clinical trials have found this drug performs better than placebo metrics would indicate, and as such the drug has been approved as a treatment for those who might suffer immune-attacking hair loss; such as those who lose their hair through alopecia areata. 

While this treatment may not be used for male pattern baldness just yet, it’s good to know that those with medical conditions that cause hair loss may find some relief through this treatment; and as further tests and results come back, we may find another pathway to a complete solution.

To conclude, we believe the future is bright for hair loss treatment and medication. To learn more, please visit our website.
