Your Body's Healing Elixir
What are PRP Injections for Hair Restoration?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy for hair restoration is an innovative treatment that harnesses your body's own healing capabilities to stimulate hair growth. PRP is derived from your own blood and contains a high concentration of growth factors that can rejuvenate dormant hair follicles and improve the health of existing hair.
Unlocking Natural Regeneration
What is the PRP Hair Restoration Procedure Like?
PRP injections for hair restoration at Longevity Men's Health Clinic is a straightforward process:
- Blood Draw: A small amount of your blood is drawn, similar to a routine blood test.

PRP Hair Restoration Results
Initial improvements may be noticeable within 3 months, with optimal results typically seen after 6-12 months of treatment. Results can last for 12-18 months, but like most cosmetic procedures, occasional touch-up treatments are recommended to sustain the effects. We typically suggest treatments every 4-6 months for maintaining optimal long-term results.
Enhancing Your Results: Nutrafol and Other Supplements
At Longevity Men's Health Clinic, we believe in a comprehensive approach to hair restoration. In addition to PRP treatments, we often recommend supplements like Nutrafol to support optimal hair health from the inside out.
Nutrafol is a clinically-tested supplement that contains a proprietary blend of natural ingredients designed to target multiple root causes of hair thinning. It can be an excellent first-line treatment or a complementary therapy to PRP injections.
Benefits of combining PRP with Nutrafol:
- Addresses both external and internal factors affecting hair health
- Provides essential nutrients for hair growth
- May enhance and prolong the effects of PRP treatments
During your consultation, we'll discuss whether adding Nutrafol or other supplements to your treatment plan could benefit your specific case.
