PRP Hair Restoration
in Rolling Meadows, IL
ALURIA offers PRP hair restoration for adults who want a nonsurgical way to support thinning hair using their own blood components. The treatment concentrates growth factors from your platelets and places them where follicles need support. Each visit requires little downtime, so treatment fits into a busy schedule. This page explains how it works, what each visit involves, and how results develop.
What Is PRP for Hair?
Platelet rich plasma, or PRP, is a concentrate made by spinning a small sample of your own blood to separate platelets from other components. Platelets carry growth factors that play a role in tissue repair and cellular signaling. When applied to the scalp, this concentrate is intended to stimulate weakened hair follicles and support a healthier growth cycle.
How the Treatment Works
PRP hair restoration is built around a structured plan: an initial series of sessions, followed by periodic maintenance visits. Each appointment combines a blood draw, plasma processing, and targeted application to areas of thinning. Because the material comes from your own body, the approach suits patients seeking a regenerative option.
Preparing for Your First Session
- Your Initial Consultation
Your first visit focuses on understanding your hair concerns, health history, and goals. A provider will examine your scalp, discuss the pattern and duration of thinning, and determine whether PRP is a suitable fit. Together you will outline a plan that reflects your needs.
- Hydration and Nutrition Tips
Drinking plenty of water in the day or two before treatment can make the blood draw smoother. Eating a balanced meal beforehand helps you feel comfortable during the appointment. Your provider may share additional guidance based on your health profile.
- Hair and Scalp Readiness
Arriving with clean, product free hair allows the scalp to be prepared efficiently. Skip styling gels, sprays, and oils on the day of your visit. Let your provider know about any medications or supplements you take so your plan can be adjusted if needed.
Step by Step Treatment Process
- Collecting a Small Blood Sample
The session begins with a standard blood draw, usually from the arm. Only a small volume is needed to produce the plasma concentrate. This step takes just a few minutes.
- Processing in a Centrifuge
The sample is placed in a centrifuge that spins rapidly to separate its layers. The platelet rich portion is isolated and prepared for application. This process allows the concentrate to contain a higher level of platelets than circulating blood.
- Preparing the Treatment Area
While the plasma is processed, the scalp is cleansed and target zones are identified. Your provider takes steps to keep you comfortable throughout. Areas of visible thinning receive the most attention.
- Delivering Plasma to the Scalp
The concentrate is placed into the scalp at the level of the follicles using fine, evenly spaced applications. This targeted placement brings growth factors directly to the follicles that need support. Once the applications are complete, the session is finished and you can leave the office.
Schedule Your Consultation
Aftercare and Returning to Routine
Most patients resume normal activities the same day. You will likely be advised to wait before washing your hair and to avoid heavy workouts, saunas, and harsh hair products for a short period. Following these aftercare steps helps the plasma remain in place.
When Results Begin to Show
Hair growth follows a natural cycle, so changes appear gradually rather than overnight. Many patients notice reduced shedding within the first few months, with fuller looking hair developing around three to six months after the initial series. Maintenance sessions help sustain progress over time.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
-
Adults with early to moderate thinning who still have active follicles
-
Men and women experiencing pattern related hair loss or a widening part
-
Individuals in good general health without blood or platelet disorders
-
Patients able to commit to a multi session plan with periodic maintenance
Advantages of PRP for Thinning Hair
PRP can help reduce shedding, increase hair density, and improve the thickness of individual strands. Because it uses your own plasma, it offers a natural approach without synthetic additives. Treatment requires no incisions and little downtime, so it fits easily into your daily routine.

Common Questions About PRP Hair
How many PRP hair sessions will I need?
Most plans begin with three to four sessions spaced about four to six weeks apart. Maintenance visits every several months help preserve results. Your provider will recommend a schedule based on your response.
Is PRP hair restoration suitable for women?
Yes, PRP is used by both women and men experiencing thinning hair. Women with a widening part or diffuse thinning are often good candidates. A consultation helps confirm whether it fits your situation.
How long does a PRP hair appointment take?
A typical appointment lasts about an hour from blood draw to completion. Most of that time is spent processing the plasma and preparing the scalp. You can usually return to your day afterward.
Can PRP be combined with microneedling?
In some cases, PRP is paired with Traditional Microneedling to help distribute the plasma across the scalp. Your provider will decide whether this combination suits your plan based on your hair goals and scalp condition.
How long do PRP hair results last?
Results vary from person to person and depend on factors such as age, genetics, and consistency with maintenance. Many patients sustain improvements with periodic follow up sessions. Ongoing care helps support long term progress.
