Once the root cause of hair loss has been identified and addressed, we can turn our focus to hair restoration. For optimal results, combining multiple treatment modalities is often recommended.

Nutritional Support: Nutrafol

Nourishing hair follicles from within is crucial. Nutrafol is a drug-free supplement formulated with vitamins, minerals, and botanical ingredients to support hair health. By enhancing cellular function, it helps revitalize hair density and texture. Additionally, Nutrafol supports red blood cell health, ensuring essential nutrients reach the hair follicles. This supplement also strengthens hair follicles, leading to thicker, faster-growing hair with reduced shedding. Nutrafol offers tailored options for women under and over 45, as well as postpartum women. A vegan formula is available, and a specific formulation for men addresses their unique hormonal needs. With extensive research and top dermatologist recommendations, Nutrafol is a trusted choice for hair restoration.

Stimulating Blood Flow: Minoxidil

Minoxidil also plays an important role in hair restoration. It works by increasing blood flow to the hair follicles, delivering vital nutrients and oxygen. Available in both topical and oral forms, minoxidil has specific formulations for men and women. Results may take several months, and the effectiveness of minoxidil can vary depending on the type and severity of hair loss. Consult a healthcare provider to determine if minoxidil is appropriate for you and determine the best delivery form.

Harnessing Your Body's Healing Power: Platelet Rich Fibrin Matrix (PRFM)

PRFM is an innovative treatment that leverages the body's natural healing abilities. Platelets, the first responders to injury, release growth factors and stem cells to stimulate repair and regeneration. Selphyl technology captures this healing power, allowing for a PRFM treatment up to seven days after blood draw. The concentrated platelet-rich plasma is injected into the scalp to promote hair follicle growth and improve overall hair health. Multiple treatments and specialized nutritional preparation are often recommended for optimal results. Consulting with a knowledgeable healthcare provider is essential to determine candidacy for this procedure.

By combining Nutrafol, minoxidil, and PRFM, individuals can create a comprehensive hair restoration plan. Remember, individual needs vary, and consulting with a healthcare professional is crucial for personalized recommendations.
