Restore Thinning Hair in NYC with Expert PRP Treatment

Are You Experiencing Hair Loss or Thinning Hair?

If you’re noticing more hair in your brush, a widening part, or thinning patches, you’re not alone—and effective solutions are available. At Dr. Debra Jaliman’s NYC dermatology office, we specialize in advanced hair restoration treatments, including Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, to help you regain thicker, fuller hair.

Dr. Jaliman has personally treated hundreds of men and women with PRP for hair loss, delivering highly satisfying results through customized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs. Whether you’re just starting to experience hair thinning or have been struggling with hair loss for years, her expertise ensures you receive the most effective and personalized care.

Hair loss can deeply affect your self-esteem and how you see yourself in the mirror. According to recent studies, about 50% of men will experience some degree of hair loss by age 50, increasing to 80% by age 70. Women are also highly affected—especially after menopause—due to declining estrogen and progesterone levels, leading to noticeable thinning.

PRP therapy is a proven, non-surgical solution for hair restoration, especially effective for androgenic alopecia (male- and female-pattern baldness). This innovative treatment harnesses your body’s natural platelets to stimulate hair growth, reduce shedding, and thicken existing hair. PRP can be used on its own or combined with other treatments like topical or oral medications and at-home laser devices for even better results. Many patients begin to see improvement after their first session, with studies confirming significant increases in hair density over time.

PRP Hair Loss Treatment in NYC

PRP hair loss treatment is a non-surgical, advanced solution for men and women experiencing thinning hair, pattern baldness, or hair shedding. At our Upper East Side NYC dermatology clinic, Dr. Debra Jaliman specializes in Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, helping patients achieve thicker, fuller hair naturally with customized care.

What Is PRP Hair Restoration?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy uses your body’s own platelets and growth factors to stimulate hair follicles, increase scalp blood flow, and encourage new hair growth. This treatment also reduces scalp inflammation and improves overall hair density and thickness.

PRP is derived from your own blood, which means there is no risk of allergic reactions. The autologous platelets contain over 1,500 proteins including growth factors essential for hair follicle regeneration.

How PRP Therapy Works

Step 1: Blood Draw and PRP Preparation

A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm. Using a centrifuge, the blood is separated into:

Red blood cells (discarded)
Plasma rich in platelets (PRP, containing growth factors)

Step 2: PRP Injection into the Scalp

The PRP is injected into areas of thinning hair. Optional Zimmer Chiller devices or topical anesthetic creams reduce discomfort.

Step 3: Hair Follicle Stimulation

PRP delivers growth factors directly to the hair follicles, promoting:

Thicker hair strands
Reduced shedding
Scalp rejuvenation
Increased hair follicle density

Results typically become noticeable after 3–4 months, with full improvement over several months.

Who Is a Good Candidate for PRP?

PRP injections are ideal for individuals with:

Androgenic alopecia (male and female pattern hair loss)
Alopecia areata (patchy hair loss)
Early to moderate hair thinning
Those seeking a non-surgical solution

Not suitable for:

Individuals with scarring alopecia
Those with blood or clotting disorders
Pregnant women
Heavy smokers or patients with liver disease or metastatic cancer

PRP vs. Hair Transplants

PRP is non-surgical and minimally invasive, while hair transplantation (FUE: follicular unit extraction) is surgical and requires local anesthesia. PRP can also enhance hair transplant results by stimulating graft growth and improving scalp healing.

Combining PRP With Other Treatments

For maximum results, PRP can be used alongside:

Microneedling: Improves PRP absorption
Exosomes: Peptides and growth factors that enhance hair restoration
Topical medications: Minoxidil (Rogaine)
Oral medications: Finasteride (Propecia), oral minoxidil
Hormone blockers for women: Spironolactone
Laser therapy: FDA-approved HairMax device for men and women
Vitamin supplementation: Biotin, vitamin C, zinc, iron, vitamin D

PRP Hair FAQs

Q: Can PRP regrow hair?

Yes, PRP stimulates dormant follicles and improves hair density over time.

Q: Is PRP painful?

Discomfort is minimal; cooling devices and topical anesthetics are used.

Q: How long until I see results?

Most patients notice improvement after 3–4 months.

Q: Are there any side effects of PRP hair treatment?

Side effects are minimal, usually mild redness or swelling at injection sites.

Q: Can PRP be combined with microneedling or hair transplants?

Yes, combining treatments often enhances hair restoration results.

How does PRP work for thinning hair?

PRP therapy works by enhancing blood flow to the scalp and delivering growth factors that activate dormant hair follicles. This process strengthens thinning hair, reduces shedding, and encourages the growth of new strands. Over a series of sessions, many patients notice visible improvement in hair density and scalp coverage, making PRP one of the most effective non-invasive hair restoration treatments available.

Is PRP effective for treating pattern baldness?

Yes. PRP has proven particularly effective for androgenic alopecia, also known as male- and female-pattern baldness. The treatment stimulates weakened follicles, increases hair shaft thickness, and prolongs the growth (anagen) phase of the hair cycle. Studies show consistent improvement in hair volume and follicle activity, especially when combined with medical therapies such as minoxidil or finasteride under a dermatologist’s guidance.

Can PRP be used to address a receding hairline?

Absolutely. PRP injections can restore hair along the frontal hairline, where early thinning or recession often appears first. The concentrated platelet growth factors help revitalize dormant follicles in this area, promoting gradual regrowth and a fuller, more natural hairline. Consistency is key—results improve with a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart.

Is PRP suitable for individuals with severe balding?

PRP therapy is most effective when some active follicles remain. For individuals with advanced hair loss or complete baldness, PRP may offer limited regrowth but can help strengthen existing hair and slow future loss. In such cases, dermatologists often recommend combining PRP with hair transplantation for optimal, long-term results.

Can PRP be combined with other hair treatments for better results?

Yes. PRP is often combined with microneedling, low-level laser therapy (LLLT), or topical treatments to enhance overall effectiveness. These therapies work synergistically to improve scalp health, boost circulation, and stimulate follicular regeneration, leading to thicker, stronger hair growth over time.

Is PRP hair treatment the same as hair restoration?

PRP is one form of hair restoration therapy—but not the only one. While traditional hair transplantation involves relocating follicles, PRP focuses on revitalizing existing hair and stimulating natural growth through regenerative medicine. Many patients choose PRP as a first-line treatment before considering surgery.
