Why do I need hair restoration?

You need hair restoration if your hair is starting to thin or you notice classic signs of hair loss. Hair loss may occur due to:

• Physical stress (illness or excessive exercise)
• Emotional distress
• Fungal infections (ringworm)
• Hormone imbalances
• Autoimmune disease (alopecia areata)
• Tight braids and ponytails (traction alopecia)
• Androgenetic alopecia (inherited hair loss)

Inherited hair loss is the most common cause of thinning and balding. This condition, more commonly called male-pattern and female-pattern hair loss, makes the hair follicles hypersensitive to a hormone. The hormone shrinks the follicles, and they gradually stop growing hair.

What hair restoration procedures might I receive?

The Alpha Advantage team restores hair growth with the following natural treatments:

Regenerative therapies

Regenerative therapies containing platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and exosomes promote healing and activate tissue growth. PRP comes from cells extracted from your blood, while many cells in your body release exosomes into cellular fluids.

PRP and exosomes contain proteins (growth factors and others) that communicate with cells deep in the hair follicle, stimulating the follicle to produce new hair again.

Red light therapy

Red light therapy uses low-wavelength light energy to activate cellular activity. As the light interacts with cells, it boosts energy, improves circulation, stimulates nerve regeneration, triggers new blood vessel growth, and revitalizes stem cells in the hair follicle. As a result, the follicle starts growing hair.

What should I expect during hair restoration?

If you choose red light therapy, you relax in a chair with a helmet-like cap over your head that sends out red light.

If you decide to have PRP or exosome treatments, the team harvests the cells from your body. Then, they inject the treatment into balding areas or use a microneedling device to make tiny punctures in your skin and then apply PRP or exosomes over the small wounds.

How long does it take for hair restoration to produce results?

It takes time for follicles to regain health and grow hair, and it typically requires multiple treatments to achieve optimal results. Healing also proceeds at a different pace for each person.

While your provider can’t predict how long it will take to see results, they can give you more specific information after completing an exam and determining the best treatment for you.
