PRP — Hair Restoration & Undereye

me.losangeles aesthetics offers PRP (platelet-rich plasma) treatments for both hair density restoration and undereye rejuvenation. The hair restoration protocol uses micro-injections of concentrated platelet-rich plasma into the scalp to stimulate dormant follicles, with published data showing approximately 19.7% hair density increase after three sessions and up to 38% after a full series. Undereye PRP targets dark circles and puffiness via injection of growth-factor-rich plasma beneath the eyes to reduce inflammation and stimulate collagen. Both protocols use the client's own blood — no synthetic materials.

me.losangeles aesthetics on Sunset Blvd in West Hollywood provides two distinct PRP protocols targeting different anatomical concerns: scalp hair restoration and undereye rejuvenation, both grounded in autologous growth factor delivery. For hair restoration, the PRP process begins with a venous blood draw — typically 10–20 mL — which is centrifuged to separate the platelet-rich plasma layer from red blood cells and platelet-poor plasma. The resulting PRP concentrate contains three to five times the baseline platelet count, with corresponding concentrations of the growth factors these platelets release upon activation: platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and epidermal growth factor (EGF). These signalling proteins bind to receptors on dermal papilla cells and hair follicle stem cells, stimulating cellular proliferation, extending the anagen (active growth) phase of the hair cycle, and promoting miniaturised follicles toward their full diameter. The clinical evidence base for PRP hair restoration includes studies demonstrating approximately 19.7% increases in hair density after a three-session protocol and up to 38% density improvement after a complete treatment series — improvements that persist for one year or more with appropriate maintenance. At me.losangeles, scalp PRP injections are administered at the level of the follicular bulge across the affected zones, with the standard protocol consisting of three sessions spaced approximately one month apart. For undereye PRP, the same growth-factor-rich plasma is micro-injected into the periorbital soft tissue beneath the eyes. The tear trough is among the most difficult facial zones to treat — conventional filler can cause the Tyndall effect (bluish discolouration) in thin-skinned patients, and the delicate anatomy limits what synthetic products can safely achieve. PRP's autologous nature eliminates allergy risk entirely; the growth factors it delivers reduce subcutaneous inflammatory signalling that contributes to the dark colouration of the undereye, and the collagen stimulus improves the thickness and reflectivity of the overlying skin over one to two months following each session. me.losangeles also offers PRP as an add-on to its SkinPen microneedling sessions — a protocol commonly known as the Vampire Facial — for clients targeting broader facial skin quality alongside the specific hair or undereye concerns. As a fully autologous treatment, PRP at me.losangeles carries no risk of allergic or foreign-body reaction. Located in West Hollywood, the clinic serves clients from Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Hollywood, and across the Los Angeles basin.
