What Is Hair Restoration?

Hair restoration stimulates hair growth, prevents further hair loss, and restores thickness to areas of thinning hair. Depending on the severity and type of hair loss, these treatments can include non-invasive therapies, like PRP hair restoration and microneedling, as well as more advanced options like hair transplants. The goal is not just to regrow hair but to help you maintain a full, healthy head of hair.

Hair Restoration Treatments at Premier Dermatology

At Premier Dermatology, we offer hair restoration treatments personalized to meet your specific needs. Here’s a look at some of the options we offer:

PRP Hair Restoration

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy for hair loss is a popular non-surgical hair regrowth therapy. PRP uses your own blood to stimulate hair growth by concentrating platelets and growth factors. The process is simple and minimally invasive and can be highly effective for treating thinning hair and stimulating new growth.

Microneedling

Microneedling involves using tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the scalp, stimulating collagen production and encouraging hair follicles to regenerate. It’s often used in combination with PRP therapy to enhance results.

Topical Medications

We also offer effective topical treatments like minoxidil, which can help slow hair loss and promote new hair growth. These medications are applied directly to the scalp for a non-invasive solution.

Hair Transplants

For those looking for a permanent solution, hair transplants involve relocating hair follicles from thicker areas of your scalp to areas experiencing thinning. This procedure offers long-term results and can dramatically restore a natural, youthful hairline.

Who Is Hair Restoration For?

Hair restoration treatments are ideal for anyone experiencing hair loss or thinning. This includes men and women dealing with androgenetic alopecia (genetic hair loss), those who have lost hair due to medical conditions, or individuals looking for practical solutions to restore volume to thinning areas.

What to Expect During Hair Restoration?

Each hair restoration treatment has a different process, but you can expect a thorough consultation to determine the best option for your needs. Most options are minimally invasive and require little to no downtime during the treatment itself. 

Microneedling or platelet-rich plasma for hair loss takes 30 minutes and is minimally uncomfortable. Depending on the extent of the procedure, hair transplants may take longer.

Hair Restoration Recovery and Results

Recovery times vary depending on the treatment. Non-invasive options like PRP therapy or microneedling have little downtime and can return to normal activities quickly. Hair transplant procedures may require five days to a week of recovery time. Swelling and mild discomfort can be easily managed with over-the-counter pain medication.

Results vary from person to person. Most patients see noticeable improvement within a few months of treatment, with full results visible in six to 12 months.

Benefits of Hair Restoration

Here are some benefits of hair restoration that are worth considering:

  • Non-invasive options like PRP therapy and microneedling provide effective results with minimal downtime.
  • Hair transplant surgery delivers permanent, natural-looking outcomes.
  • These treatments restore volume and thickness to thinning or balding areas.
  • They boost self-esteem and confidence by reversing the signs of hair loss.

How Much Does Hair Restoration Cost?

The cost of hair restoration in Wellesley can vary depending on the type of treatment you choose. Non-surgical options like PRP therapy and microneedling are more affordable than hair transplants. During your consultation, we’ll provide a detailed estimate based on your needs and the treatment plan we develop together.

I have been going to Dr. Lunder for 15 years+. She is a wonderful dermatologist. She watches for precancerous spots and takes great care of my skin. She is always willing to discuss cosmetic treatments but never pushes anything. Her assistant Sue is also knowledgeable and comforting. Her office Premier Dermatology has a very welcome staff. I highly recommend Dr. Lunder and this office.
