Hair Restoration in Montrose, Chicago
Hair thinning and shedding can be frustrating—and the “right” solution depends on the cause. At Leeia Derma Spa in Montrose, Chicago, our Hair Restoration program focuses on two of the most requested non-surgical options in modern medical aesthetics.
PRP Hair Restoration (Platelet-Rich Plasma)
What PRP Is
What to Expect During PRP
What to Expect During PRP
PRP uses a small sample of your own blood that is processed to concentrate platelets, which contain growth factors.
This platelet-rich portion is then placed into targeted areas of the scalp to support follicle function in selected candidates. PRP for hair growth is widely used, but it is considered off-label (no FDA clearance specifically for hair growth indication), which is common in medical practice when appropriately counseled and performed by qualified clinicians
