Our Methods for Hair Restoration
As a leading provider of hair restoration in Des Moines, we combine Keravive and PRF injections to improve your hair’s fullness and health.
Keravive
Keravive by Hydrafacial promotes hair restoration by boosting your scalp health and supporting natural hair growth. The Hydrafacial wand uses innovative suction technology that stimulates and opens your hair follicles. Then, it directly infuses those follicles with nutrients and hydration.
Keravive’s formula includes niacinamide to protect your scalp and hair, peptides to nourish the hair follicles, and vitamin B5 and arginine to hydrate your cells deeply. Not only does Keravive promote regrowth in sparse areas, but it also improves your existing hair’s health.
PRF Injections
Through PRF injections, we suffuse your scalp with natural growth factors derived from your own blood. At your appointment, we’ll draw a vial of your blood and put it into a centrifuge to extract platelet-rich fibrin (PRF). Then, we’ll inject it into the targeted areas using a thin needle.
Platelet-rich fibrin is rich in growth factors that play vital roles in tissue repair. In addition to growth factors, PRF also contains white blood cells and stem cells that aid in growing healthy hair. Because PRF has a gel-like texture, it releases the growth factors and cells slowly, sometimes over several weeks. Combined, all these components stimulate hair regrowth.
PRF also eliminates the risk of an allergic reaction and disease transmission, since it only contains ingredients produced by your own body. When you’re looking for hair restoration in Des Moines, PRF delivers healthier hair and peace of mind!
