What Is PRP Hair Restoration?
PRP Hair Restoration offers a natural, regenerative solution for hair thinning and loss using your body’s own platelet-rich plasma (PRP). At Medical Specialists MN in Edina, our Twin Cities specialists use advanced PRP techniques to stimulate dormant hair follicles, improve scalp health, and encourage thicker, fuller hair—without drugs, implants, or surgery.

How It Works
Consultation & Hair Health Assessment
Your journey begins with a detailed evaluation of your hair loss pattern, medical history, and treatment goals. We’ll assess your scalp, hormone levels, and candidacy for PRP.
PRP Collection and Preparation
A small blood sample is drawn in-office and spun in a medical centrifuge to isolate platelet-rich plasma (PRP), packed with growth factors that stimulate hair follicles.
Precision Injections Into Scalp
Your provider will apply a topical anesthetic for comfort and then inject the PRP into areas of thinning hair. The process takes about 30 minutes and is well tolerated.
Recovery and Results Timeline
You can resume normal activity immediately. Most patients begin to notice reduced shedding within weeks, with fuller regrowth and better texture over 3–6 months.
Frequently Asked Questions About PRP Hair Restoration
FAQ
How many PRP sessions will I need?
Most patients benefit from a series of 3 initial sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments every 6–12 months help sustain long-term results.
Is PRP hair restoration safe?
Yes. Because it uses your own blood, PRP carries little to no risk of allergic reaction or rejection. It’s a safe, natural alternative to surgical transplants and medications.
Does PRP work for both men and women?
Absolutely. PRP can treat male pattern baldness, female thinning at the crown or part line, hormonal shedding, and even postpartum hair loss in women.
Is there any downtime or recovery?
No downtime is needed. You may feel mild soreness or redness at the injection sites, but most patients return to work or daily activities immediately after treatment.
