Regenerative Options for Hair Restoration & Hair Loss Prevention
WHAT IS ACELL?
ACELL – A Great Addition to Your Hair Transplant
ACell is an FDA-approved cellular regeneration product used in wound healing that has recently been combined with a patient’s own stem cells and has been shown to improve hair regrowth for both men and women.
In hair restoration, ACell is combined with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and injected into the scalp. The application of ACell + PRP causes miniaturized hair follicles to become healthier and larger, producing more robust hair growth. ACell activates follicular progenitor cells (adult stem cells) and PRP is loaded with growth factors that promote rapid angiogenesis and localized cell growth. Effective for both male and female pattern hair loss, ACell + PRP has also regrown hair in alopecia areata, eyebrow hypotrichosis, and other patient cases with non-hereditary hair loss.
ABOUT ACELL
ACell’s MatriStem® technology is a naturally occurring, non-crosslinked, completely resorbable, acellular material. MatriStem devices are unique from other scaffold technologies in that they fundamentally change healing by triggering abundant new blood vessel formation and recruiting numerous cell types to the site of injury.
It appears that these cells, including progenitor cells, have the potential to differentiate into numerous types of site-specific tissues. During the healing process, the scaffold is degraded and completely resorbed, leaving new tissue where scar tissue would normally be expected. This proprietary UBM scaffold technology can be used in a broad range of medical applications such as wound care, general surgery, gastrointestinal surgery, urology as well as plastic & reconstructive surgery.
PRP Therapy
PLATELET-RICH PLASMA (PRP) INJECTIONS
In recent years, doctors have learned that the body has the ability to heal itself. Platelet-rich plasma therapy is a form of regenerative medicine that can harness those abilities and amplify the natural growth factors your body uses to heal tissue.
WHAT IS PLASMA AND WHAT ARE PLATELETS?
Plasma is the liquid portion of whole blood. It is composed largely of water and proteins, and it provides a medium for red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets to circulate through the body. Platelets, also called thrombocytes, are blood cells that cause blood clots and other necessary growth-healing functions.
Platelet activation plays a key role in the body’s natural healing process. This is true in many bodily healing applications including when used in combination with hair transplant procedures including Follicular Unit Transplants and Follicular Unit Extraction techniques.
WHAT IS PLATELET-RICH PLASMA (PRP) AND WHAT ARE PRP INJECTIONS?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses injections of a concentration of a patient’s own platelets to accelerate the healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles and joints. In this way, PRP injections use each individual patient’s own healing system to improve musculoskeletal problems.
PRP injections are prepared by taking anywhere from one to a few tubes of your own blood and running it through a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets. These activated platelets are then injected directly into your injured or diseased body tissue. This releases growth factors that stimulate and increase the number of reparative cells your body produces.
HOW DO PLATELET-RICH PLASMA INJECTIONS WORK?
Platelet-rich plasma has been found to significantly enhance the healing process, and using a PRP injection as an addition to hair transplant procedures is becoming more common. And for good reason!
Some of the key advantages of PRP injections are that they can reduce the need for anti-inflammatories or stronger opiate-based medications. In addition, the side effects of PRP injections are very limited because, since the injections are created from your own blood, your body will not reject or react negatively to them.
At Best Hair Transplant in Redondo Beach, we infuse our PRP treatments will allograft MSCs. We have found this mixture provides the best results for our hair transplant patients.
Allograft Stem Cell Therapy for Hairloss
REVERSE HAIR LOSS WITH STEM CELL THERAPY
If you’re suffering through any of the afflictions listed above, you’ve likely tried everything to stop your hair loss. Oftentimes, to no avail. Creams, pastes, fad diets… you name it. However, did you know that you may be able to reverse hair loss with stem cell therapy? In fact, using stem cells with PRP for hair loss may be the answer you’ve been looking for.
In an average time of 6 months, using stem cells with Platelet-Rich Plasma has been shown to improve hair growth. This non-invasive procedure can help stop hair loss in its tracks. It can also stimulate the scalp and hair follicles for improved blood flow. Consequently, new cell growth is encouraged. As a result, you may see fuller, thicker hair.
REVERSE HAIR LOSS NOW
Stem cell therapy may be able to help reverse hair loss. You may benefit from stem cell injections to treat your hair loss. These include hair loss due to hereditary issues, hormonal issues, and various medical disorders.
Most importantly, stem cells are able to reverse hair loss with stem cell therapy in both men and women. Men and women are both able to benefit from this treatment.
WILL STEM CELL THERAPY REVERSE MY HAIR LOSS?
Many patients wonder if using stem cells with PRP is the best option for them. Of course, that all depends on their health and their unique circumstances. If you’re looking for a hair loss solution that involves less downtime, then stem cell therapy may be a great option to treat your hair loss.
