Early hair loss can have a very real effect on how men in Las Vegas, NV, see themselves and how others may see them. Men typically lose hair in specific areas on the head, including over the temples and on the back of the head through to the crown of the head.
This male pattern balding, more correctly known as androgenetic alopecia, is not uncommon. It is estimated that approximately 85% of all men over 50 have some degree of male pattern balding which can range from mild hair thinning to full hair loss, bald areas of the scalp and continual shedding of the hair.
A New, Effective Option
As an addition to medical therapies such as the use of DHT blockers or the drug minoxidil, PHP for hair loss is an option any man may want to consider. Keep in mind, male pattern baldness may start to become apparent in men during their 20s, and earlier treatment often has more dramatic results in a shorter period.
PHP or plasma-rich platelet therapy has been used for a wide range of treatments. It can be used to stimulate healing in the body, to increase circulation to specific areas as well as to reduce inflammation. PHP for hair loss is also a common use of this technology.
The use of PHP for hair loss is a very simple and nonsurgical procedure. The patient arrives at the clinic in Las Vegas, NV, and is evaluated by a doctor. If approved for the procedure, a small amount of the patient’s blood is drawn and processed, extracting the nutrient-rich platelets.
This prepared sample is then injected into specific areas in the scalp, a process that is like any other type of injection and requires no anesthesia. This process is repeated every three to four months for maximum effective hair growth.
