There are plenty of factors behind hair thinning and hair loss, and these include genetics, nutritional deficiencies, and chronic stress. Luckily, advanced hair restoration techniques such as PRF and PEP have made it possible to stop, slow down, and help treat hair fall – without surgery or downtime. 

Read on to know more. 

PRF For Hair Restoration

Platelet rich fibrin or PRF is a type of growth factor that is injected into the scalp to restore hair growth. It stimulates new hair growth and addresses thinning hair by healing the damaged hair follicles and promoting their quick regeneration.

Unlike surgical hair transplants, PRF hair loss treatments don’t require going under the knife or long recovery time. Moreover, the procedure is safe and the risk of rejection or allergies is next to none because the PRF growth factor is extracted from your own blood.

Some patients notice an initial improvement (i.e., a significant decrease in hair loss and hair thinning) a few days after the treatment. However, the growth of new hair and improved hair strength might take 2 to 3 months to manifest. 

Here are some of the benefits of PRF hair restoration treatments:

  1. A PRF hair restoration makes your hair look and feel lustrous and healthy. 
  2. The procedure is non-surgical and doesn’t require any downtime.
  3. The substance is drawn from your own blood, greatly reducing the risks of rejection and allergic reactions. 
  4. The results are generally long-lasting, so long as you follow a proper hair care routine.  

PEP For Hair Restoration

The PEP Factor treatment for the scalp is a proprietary formulation that contains a natural and bioidentical growth factor known as basic Fibroblast Growth Factor (bFGF), along with copper peptides to improve hair growth, volume, texture, and strength.

The PEP hair restoration technique involves making micro channels in your scalp via the microneedling technique and then infusing the PEP factor into the channels. Unlike the PRF hair loss treatment, it doesn’t require drawing blood at all.

The initial results can take a couple of weeks to kick in, however, maximum results can be achieved after about 6 to 8 treatment sessions. 

Here are some of the benefits of PEP treatments for hair restoration:

 

  1. It can make your hair look and feel more voluminous, smoother, and healthier in a relatively short period of time.
  2. The procedure is non-surgical and doesn’t require any downtime. 
  3. Unlike PRF, it doesn’t require drawing blood. 
  4. The results can be achieved relatively more quickly compared to other hair loss treatments and can last longer. 

PRF and PEP hair restoration procedures have made it possible to combat hair loss and hair thinning effectively without surgery. They can rejuvenate your hair from within by nourishing your scalp at the cellular level.
