HOW DOES platelet fibrin matrix HAIR LOSS THERAPY WORK?
PRFM therapy for men and women is performed without contraindications. This non-surgical procedure utilizes the patient's blood, which is collected from the vein into a 20-22cc specialized tube, centrifuged, and then a concentrate of platelets and white blood cells, called Buffycoat, is aspirated, plus the lower third of the extracted fluids. This area will typically have 3 -5 x concentration of growth factors and is the key ingredient to success in any PRFM procedure.
After this preparation, the PRFM is injected directly into the patient's scalp, with special microneedles that reduce the discomfort of the application. These intradermal applications will release alpha granules, which stimulate the formation of new vessels by increasing blood flow in the hair bulb. It also releases growth hormones and stimulates fibroblasts that produce collagen. There is also a 200% increase in macrophages at the area, where they will destroy bacteria and fungi, controlling seborrheic dermatitis, one of the causes of hair loss that leads to baldness.

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR PRFM HAIR LOSS PROCEDURE?
PRFM treatment is effective for both men and women and can be performed at any age. The great advantage of the therapy is the stimulation of stem cells, which are cells with multiple regenerative capacities and which stimulate the growth and thickening of the hair. PRFM works best in patients with androgenic alopecia, female pattern baldness, female hair loss, and male hair loss. It is very important to be consistent with therapy to see results. Since the platelet fibrin matrix comes from the patient's own blood, there is no risk of rejection or allergic reaction. Doctor consultation is necessary before any procedure to analyze each case and the results that can be expected.
