The growth factors in the Pure PRP concentrate stimulate new blood vessels to grow for the hair follicles, which promotes the production of hair follicles and even thickens the hair shafts.

This reverses hair miniaturization, which is commonly seen in androgenetic alopecia. ​

FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

Dr. Mik will assess the degree of hair thinning, perform a simple hair analysis, and
recommend injection sites on the scalp that need to be injected with Pure PRP. After a
small amount of blood is taken from the patient to produce the Pure PRP concentration,
the scalp is cleaned and numbed with a local anesthetic. Calcium-activated Pure PRP is
injected via syringe and applied topically with a derma-roller. The derma-roller creates
microscopic channels that allow the PRP to penetrate deep into the skin on the scalp
where it stimulates the growth of hair follicles and creates new blood vessels.

In order for the treatment to be comfortable for the patient, their scalp has a local
anesthetic injected around in a circular pattern about 10 minutes before the procedure.

There is not any downtime for the patient for this procedure. Aesthetically there may be
some redness of the treated areas of the scalp and minor bruising for a few days after
the procedure.

PRP treatment is extremely safe. Because PRP is produced from your own blood, there
is no risk of an allergic reaction. In addition, PRP contains a concentrated amount of
white blood cells, your natural defenders against infections. As a result, infection is
extremely rare with our PRP treatment.

Initially, 3 to 6 treatments 4-6 weeks apart are recommended for optimal results.
Thereafter, maintenance treatments are recommended every one to two years
depending on hair type.

Dermapen Micro-Needling Skin Treatment

Dermapen oers a solution for skin conditions such as wrinkles and ne lines, acne scarring, stretch marks, wound healing stimulation, skin tightening, lifting and rejuvenation.

The Dermapen micro-needling device provides unparalleled collagen induction therapy by fractional delivery of needles into the epidermis and dermis. These micro-injuries comprised of a series of ne, sharp needles puncture the skin to encourage and harness the power of the body’s innate ability to regrow and repair the skin through the physiology of collage induction. Dermapen micro needling promotes scar-less healing and natural collagen reproduction, similar to fractional laser treatments, IPL, laser resurfacing, and chemical peels, but without the side eects and downtime.

Micro needling can be performed under a local anesthetic if needed, but is usually painless. The Dermapen device is rolled over the surface of the face to create many microscopic channels deep into the dermis of the skin, which stimulates your own body to produce new collagen. At a microscopic level, proliferated skin cells, such as broblasts, migrate to the point of injury and transform into collagen bers, resulting in increased ber strength and elasticity. This treatment improves your skin by increasing production of collagen, facilitating natural repair and growth and making the skin stronger and thicker. The new collagen lls depressed scars and wrinkles from the bottom up, lifting the depression so they are level with the surrounding skin. This process takes two to three months to produce visible results, and can also help thicken thinner, ne skin types.

The mechanism of injury is a natural process, which makes Dermapen a holistic approach to skin therapy.
