PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy is what we are known for at Pure Dermatology Cosmetic & Hair Center! We are the leading hair clinic in Southern California for hair loss! PRP is a three-step treatment where we draw your blood on the day of the treatment, spin your red blood cells in our centrifuge and then collect the Platelet Rich Plasma that is then injected back into your scalp. Think of PRP as a stimulator to help decrease inflammation and increase circulation, which is what is needed to help with overall hair growth. PRP is an excellent choice for patients experiencing generalized hair loss or hair thinning.
