PRP Hair Restoration
PRP Treatment for Hair Thinning & Density Support
OUR APPROACH
Hair changes gradually. Early evaluation matters.
Hair thinning can develop for many different reasons, and the right approach depends on the pattern of hair loss, scalp condition, treatment history, and individual goals.
PRP Hair Restoration uses platelet-rich plasma prepared from a small sample of your own blood. The concentrated PRP is introduced into targeted areas of the scalp, where naturally occurring growth factors may help support active hair follicles and the hair-growth environment.
At MajorGlow, treatment is individualized according to your concerns and how your hair responds over time. The goal is to support existing hair, improve the appearance of density and fullness when appropriate, and establish realistic expectations from the beginning.
HOW IT WORKS
Your own platelets, concentrated for targeted scalp support.

WHY PRP
A treatment prepared from your own blood.
PRP Hair Restoration uses platelet-rich plasma prepared from a small sample of your own blood, rather than introducing synthetic growth factors.
Because PRP contains naturally occurring platelets and growth factors, it may be used to support active hair follicles and the scalp environment in appropriate candidates.
Treatment can also be incorporated into a broader hair-restoration plan focused on supporting existing hair and maintaining hair density over time.
WHAT IT MAY IMPROVE
What PRP Hair Restoration May Improve
Early Hair Thinning
_edited_edited_edited_edited.png)
Gradual decreases in hair density that may become more noticeable over time. PRP is often considered during the early stages of hair thinning when follicles are still active.
Excessive Shedding

Increased hair shedding that may contribute to reduced overall fullness. PRP can help support the natural hair growth cycle in appropriate candidates.
Hair Density & Fullness

Areas where hair appears less dense or less full than desired. PRP may help support the appearance of improved density and fullness over time.
Hair Quality

Hair that appears finer, weaker, or less resilient. PRP may help improve the appearance of hair thickness and overall hair quality.
Scalp Health
Supports a healthier scalp environment and the function of existing hair follicles.
Results vary depending on the underlying cause of hair thinning, individual characteristics, and treatment consistency.
WHO IT’S FOR
For early thinning, shedding, and reduced density.
PRP Hair Restoration is often considered by individuals who want to support existing hair follicles and address changes in hair density before more advanced hair loss develops.
Treatment may be appropriate for both men and women experiencing certain forms of hair thinning.
YOUR APPOINTMENT
What to Know
Simple preparation. Gradual results.
PRP Hair Restoration requires minimal preparation and is commonly performed as an outpatient treatment. Because hair growth occurs gradually, results develop over time rather than immediately after treatment.
Before Treatment
+
✧ Arrive well hydrated, as hydration can help support the blood collection process.
✧ Inform your provider of any medications, supplements, or medical conditions.
✧ Follow any preparation instructions discussed during consultation.
After Treatment
+
✧ Avoid washing your hair for the remainder of the day unless instructed otherwise.
✧ Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive sweating, or sauna use for approximately 24 hours.
✧ Mild scalp tenderness or sensitivity may occur at injection sites.
Timing Your Treatment
+
Most patients pursue an initial series of treatments before transitioning to maintenance sessions based on individual goals.
Recovery Timeline
+
Most patients return to normal daily activities immediately after treatment.
✧ Mild redness, swelling, pinpoint bleeding, or scalp tenderness at the injection sites may occur and typically improve within 24–48 hours.
✧ Hair should not be washed until the following day unless your provider advises otherwise.
✧ Because PRP works by supporting the hair growth cycle, visible improvements develop gradually over several months rather than immediately after treatment.
Restoration Often Begins With Maintenance
Hair restoration is not always about replacing what has already been lost. In many cases, the earlier goal is to support existing follicles and preserve the appearance of density for as long as possible.
The goal is realistic, progressive support rather than an immediate transformation.
Support what is there. Plan for what comes next.
