Due to age, infection, and even stress, men and women alike can start to lose their hair over time. Whether you have male pattern baldness or alopecia, it can be a difficult time for many when their hair begins to resemble someone much older than they are. Luckily, hair loss can be reversed with hair regeneration therapy, specifically ACell + PRP injection therapy. This treatment uses your body’s natural enzymes to stimulate hair follicles in your scalp while improving the thickness and strength of your hair as it grows in. Find out what to expect during hair generation therapy and what it can do to improve your confidence with this guide!
Reasons Why Your Hair Falls Out
As we age, it becomes more and more common for us to lose our hair or have issues with thickness and fragility. While not everyone will lose their hair, millions will suffer from hair loss each year, causing self-esteem and self-confidence issues. Losing hair is not abnormal, as most people will shed 50-100 hairs a day as their bodies go through the hair regrowth and shedding process. However, you may be noticing that your hair is falling out in clumps or is beginning to thin, and these are both signs of hair loss. While it is more common for men to suffer from hair loss and baldness, many women go through this process, as well. Hair loss occurs for a variety of reasons. Hormonal changes in the body, certain medications, major surgeries, traumatic events and hereditary female- and male-pattern baldness all lead to hair loss in different ways and frequencies. Diets that don’t have enough protein and iron can lead to hair loss, as well as pregnancy and menopause. Skin infections like ringworm and medical conditions like thyroid disease often lead to hair loss, as well. Extreme shock caused by the death of a loved one or rapid weight loss can cause the body to shed more hair than normal, along with medications that treat depression, cancer, high blood pressure and arthritis.
Different Forms of Hair Loss
Whatever the reason behind your hair loss, there are different ways that it can present itself. The general term for hair loss is alopecia, and it is oftentimes sudden and occurs in small circular patches on the head. Other than alopecia, there are other symptoms of hair loss that can occur that don’t seem too disconcerting. Men often experience gradual thinning of hair on top of their head that begins as the hair recedes from the forehead. Women usually retain their hairline but their part will begin to widen over time as they lose hair there. You can develop patchy bald spots that lay around the scalp and cause itchiness as it falls out, or you can have sudden loosening of your hair that falls out in clumps as you run your fingers through your hair. Loose hair typically develops after a traumatic event and causes overall hair thinning. Full-body hair loss occurs from cancer treatments and is characterized by hair loss across the entire body, including eyelashes, eyebrows, leg hair, head hair, etc. Luckily, each of these forms of hair loss can be treated with the help of a medical professional, but you can expect higher success rates the quicker you begin treatment rather than waiting for your body to react on its own. Early treatment will always produce the best results.
How Hair Regeneration Therapy Can Help You
Hair loss can be a frustrating and embarrassing thing to experience, but hope is not lost. One of the most effective but lesser-known treatments for combating hair loss is hair regeneration therapy, and it works by improving the thickness and strength of your hair using your blood’s natural growth enzymes. By injecting the affected areas of your scalp with ACell + PRP injections, your body’s healing and restorative functions will accelerate so that effective hair growth can resume again. ACell technology is a protein complex used for wound healing and PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a component from your blood that stimulates stem cell growth to restart hair growth and reverse hair loss. The entire process takes about 90 minutes to perform, with a blood sample being taken first and then placed in a centrifuge to separate the platelets and plasma. After you scalp is numbed with a local anesthetic, the injection is placed in the affected area and you’re good to go! Your scalp may feel sore for a few days, but the results are well worth the discomfort. Results typically take 2 to 4 months to present themselves, which may seem like a long time, but your body has to go through the regeneration process before your hair will start to come in fuller and thicker. Hair regeneration therapy is an easy and quick way to boost your body’s natural ability to restore your original hair fullness without having to use a bunch of creams or medications that typically don’t work. The process is fast with minimal soreness, and you’ll be left with a head full of hair again.
