Hair restoration using natural growth factors is a non-surgical procedure used to support hair and scalp health in individuals experiencing hair thinning. This technique involves using the patient’s own blood, which is processed to concentrate platelets, growth factors, and other bioactive components found in plasma.

The mechanism of action is believed to involve growth factors in the platelets that may support hair follicle function and overall scalp health. While this approach has gained popularity, individual results can vary, and multiple treatment sessions may be recommended.
