Hair Restoration in Sandy Springs

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) hair restoration taps into your body’s own natural healing mechanisms to stimulate hair growth. The process begins with drawing a small sample of your blood, which is then processed to isolate the plasma, rich in growth factors.

Once injected into the targeted areas of the scalp, this concentrated PRP activates dormant hair follicles, enhances circulation, and encourages the natural repair and regeneration of tissue. The result? Stronger, healthier, and fuller-looking hair—all without surgery or harsh chemicals.

PRP is a safe, non-invasive option for individuals experiencing thinning hair or early hair loss, helping you achieve long-lasting, natural results with minimal downtime.

What You Can Expect

Your journey with hair restoration in Sandy Springs starts with a comprehensive consultation where our provider evaluates your hair loss pattern and overall health to determine if PRP is right for you.

The treatment involves three simple steps:

• A small blood sample is drawn.
• Your blood is spun in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets.
• The PRP is injected into the scalp where thinning or shedding is present.

The procedure is quick and minimally invasive, usually completed within 1 hour. Some mild tenderness or swelling at the injection sites is normal and usually fades within a day or two.

Results begin to appear within a few weeks, with full improvements typically seen over the course of 3 to 6 months as your follicles regenerate and hair density improves.

Preparing for Your Treatment
Before Your Appointment:

Stop using anti-inflammatory medications (like Advil, ibuprofen, or aspirin) 3 to 7 days before your session.
Avoid blood-thinning supplements (e.g., garlic, flaxseed oil, ginkgo biloba, vitamins A/C, and omega-3s) for at least 3 days before and after treatment.
Refrain from alcohol, caffeine, cigarettes, and spicy foods 48 hours before your appointment to help reduce bruising risk.
Stay well-hydrated—aim for 64oz of water on the day of your treatment.
Reschedule if you’re experiencing a cold, flu, or fever to prevent added stress on your immune system.

After Your Appointment:

Avoid touching or applying pressure to the treated area for at least 8 hours.
Mild swelling, bruising, or redness may occur and usually resolves within 7 to 10 days.
If needed, use Tylenol (not ibuprofen or aspirin) for any discomfort.
Avoid sun exposure, heat, or strenuous workouts for 48 hours.

Smoking can impair your body’s ability to heal and reduce the effectiveness of your results—try to avoid it.
