Hair loss occurs when new hair growth fails to replace hair that has fallen out. 

For those seeking a more natural approach to hair loss and hair restoration procedures Platelet-Rich Concentrate using autologous medicine technology can help increase hair density and reduce hair loss to normal levels thus encouraging hair growth through a biological treatment prepared from the patient’s own blood. Platelets are key factors in tissue repair mechanisms1. They provide essential growth factors, such as FGF, PDGF, TGF-β, EGF, VEGF, IGF, which are involved in stem cell migration, differentiation and proliferation. Platelets also stimulate fibroblasts and endothelial cells to induce the deposition of new extracellular matrix and neo- vascularisation, respectively. Plasma contains many factors essential for cell survival including nutrients, vitamins, hormones, electrolytes, growth factors (such as IGF and HGF), and proteins. Among the plasma proteins, the molecules vital for the coagulation process and for formation of the fibrin polymer will serve as a scaffold for cell migration and new tissue generation. Platelet-Rich Concentrate stimulates the proliferation and differentiation of stem cells in the hair follicles, the growth factor VEGF triggers neo angiogenesis and stimulates the blood supply to the hair follicles, furthermore, the dormant hair follicles are stimulated by the growth factor released, studies have shown that there is a significant increase in the diameter and thickness of the hair. Furthermore Platelet-Rich Concentrate improves hair follicle stem cell activation, microcirculation, nutrition and reduces inflammation of hair follicles.

At Dr Sknn we use a technology platform for standardised autologous medicine which is backed by a large number of clinical studies with over 200 publications produces a platelet recovery of  >80% with no loss of plasma growth factors and fibrinogen, with a depletion of 96.7% of pro-inflammatory granulocytes and a depletion of ~99.7% erythrocytes.

At Dr Sknn, during the consultation a medical history including a physical examination will be performed including photographs. During the consultation there will be an opportunity to discuss any concerns, expectations, results, or questions you may have. Prior to the treatment any post treatment advice and risks associated with the treatment are discussed ensuring you fully understand them and a consent form is signed.
