PRP & PRF Hair Restoration in Agoura Hills
– What it is
What is PRP & PRF hair restoration?
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) are prepared from a small sample of your own blood and contain concentrated platelets and growth factors. These platelet-based treatments can be introduced into targeted areas of the scalp to support the environment around existing hair follicles.
Treatment is generally considered for patients experiencing thinning hair or certain forms of nonscarring hair loss. Results vary, and a consultation is important to determine whether platelet-based hair restoration is appropriate for your type and stage of hair loss.
- Thinning hair
- Early-stage hair loss
- Androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss)
- Prepared from your own blood
- Minimally invasive
- Can be paired with scalp microneedling
– Choosing your treatment
PRP vs. PRF for hair restoration
PRP and PRF are both prepared from your own blood, but processed differently.
PRP
Has been used in hair restoration for many years and is the term patients commonly recognize when searching for platelet-based hair treatments.
PRF
A newer-generation platelet concentrate that contains a fibrin matrix and is prepared differently from traditional PRP.
At AIVI Aesthetics, your treatment plan is selected based on your hair-loss pattern, scalp condition, and individual goals.

PRP & PRF vs. hair transplant
PRP and PRF hair restoration are not hair-transplant procedures. A hair transplant surgically relocates hair follicles from one area of the scalp to another. PRP and PRF are nonsurgical platelet-based treatments intended to support existing follicles in appropriate candidates.
Patients with advanced hair loss or areas where follicles are no longer viable may require evaluation for other hair-restoration options, including surgical hair transplantation.
– Why AIVI
Why choose AIVI Aesthetics for hair restoration?
Hair loss can have multiple causes, which is why treatment shouldn’t be approached the same way for every patient. At AIVI Aesthetics, we take a personalized approach based on your hair-loss pattern, medical history, scalp condition, and treatment goals.
When appropriate, your plan may include PRP or PRF injections, scalp microneedling, or discussion of other hair-restoration options.

– Common questions
PRP & PRF hair restoration FAQs
Is PRP/PRF hair restoration safe?
PRP and PRF use components prepared from your own blood, which reduces certain risks such as allergic reaction to the injected material. However, they are still medical procedures and can involve temporary tenderness, swelling, bruising, bleeding, or headache, as well as less common complications such as infection. Your medical history and scalp condition should be reviewed before treatment.
Who is a good candidate?
Suitable for both men and women experiencing hair thinning or early stages of hair loss. It may be less effective for those with advanced baldness or non-viable follicles.
How long does a session take?
Typically 60 to 90 minutes, including preparation of the platelet concentrate and the treatment itself.
How long do results last?
Typically 12 to 18 months, depending on the product used and your individual metabolism.
Is the treatment painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. Local anesthesia or numbing cream can be used for additional comfort.
How many sessions are needed?
The number and timing of treatments depend on your hair-loss pattern, treatment response, and overall plan. A series of treatments is commonly recommended initially, followed by reassessment and, when appropriate, maintenance treatments.
When can I expect to see results?
Results vary, but many patients start noticing changes in hair thickness and density after a few months, with fuller results potentially visible within 6 to 12 months.
Can this be combined with other hair-loss treatments?
Yes, PRP/PRF hair restoration can be combined with other approaches, including topical treatments or, for appropriate candidates, surgical hair transplantation.
