PRP Scalp Treatment Overview

Ariessence® Pure PDGF+ scalp treatment is primarily used to stimulate dormant hair follicles and encourage natural hair regrowth. Ariessence® Pure PDGF+ is packed with healing components that accelerate tissue repair and cellular regeneration. When injected into the scalp, PDGF+ stimulates stem cells around the hair follicles, helping to reactivate hair growth.

Growth factors—proteins essential for cell growth and healing—are found in the alpha granules of platelets. These factors are released during treatment, enhancing the scalp’s natural ability to support healthy hair growth.

This regenerative treatment harnesses your body’s natural healing power to combat thinning hair in a safe, minimally invasive way. By stimulating hair follicles and encouraging new cell growth, PDGF+ promotes the development of thicker, healthier hair. It also improves blood flow to the scalp and strengthens existing hair shafts, gradually enhancing hair density and overall vitality. PDGF+ scalp treatments are an excellent option for those seeking fuller hair without surgery or harsh medications.

Choosing PDGF+ Scalp Treatment

Unlike more invasive options, PDGF scalp treatment requires no incisions or stitches and offers minimal downtime. This is a lab-derived serum rich in PDGF, offering a consistent dose of growth factors without requiring a blood draw.  It’s a preferred option for those looking to restore hair health with subtle, yet noticeable, results.

How it Works

Step 1: Consultation

Step 2: Treatment Planning

Based on your scalp and hair type, your care team will recommend the PDGF+ approach to achieve your desired results. You’ll receive a detailed explanation of the treatment process, the benefits of combining PDGF+ with complementary treatments, and a personalized roadmap for achieving optimal results.

Step 3: Treatment

PDGF+ treatment begins with the gentle application of a local anesthetic, ensuring maximum comfort and minimizing discomfort for the patient. .

PDGF+ is meticulously injected just beneath the scalp’s surface using an ultra-fine needle. Our experts follow a highly precise pattern to target and treat areas with significant hair loss effectively, ensuring optimal results.

Step 4: Follow Up

We’ll guide you through a customized follow-up plan to ensure your treatment is successful. We track progress to maximize natural regrowth. After a treatment, it is normal for your scalp to feel slightly numb. However, this sensation should subside on its own within a few hours, allowing you to freely resume your normal activities.
