PRP Scalp Therapy for Hair Loss

Arocha Hair Restoration offers platelet-rich plasma (PRP) scalp injections as a non-surgical option for hair thinning and loss. Blood is drawn, centrifuged to concentrate growth-factor-rich plasma, and injected directly into the scalp to stimulate follicle activity. PRP is documented across the clinic's patient gallery and research blog, and is often combined with surgical transplant to support graft survival and accelerate recovery. No downtime is required and pricing is provided at consultation.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy at Arocha Hair Restoration harnesses the body's own growth factors to address hair thinning without surgery. A small volume of blood is drawn from the patient's arm, then placed in a centrifuge that separates red cells from the plasma layer richest in platelets and bioactive proteins including platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1). This concentrated plasma is injected at multiple points across thinning scalp areas to nourish dormant follicles and encourage renewed hair cycling. At Arocha, PRP is offered both as a standalone maintenance treatment and as an adjunct to FUE or FUT surgery, where it is applied during or immediately after the transplant session to support graft survival and reduce inflammation that can slow early growth. The clinic maintains a dedicated PRP patient gallery and has published educational content on current PRP research and protocols, reflecting Dr. Arocha's commitment to evidence-informed practice. Typical PRP protocols involve an initial series of three monthly sessions, followed by maintenance appointments every three to six months depending on individual response. Patients can expect no downtime — mild scalp redness or tenderness typically resolves within a day. Because PRP draws on the patient's own blood, the risk of allergic reaction is minimal. Results vary based on the degree of hair loss, underlying cause, and adherence to the recommended session schedule. Consultation with Dr. Arocha's team establishes whether PRP alone is appropriate or whether surgical restoration would provide more predictable density outcomes for a given patient's hair loss pattern. A free in-person or virtual consultation is available to all new patients, at which individual pricing for PRP is provided. Financing through CareCredit and Cherry is available for those who prefer to spread the cost over multiple sessions.
