Types of Hair Restoration at Illume
- Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) Hair Transplant
An FUE hair transplant is a minor surgical procedure known for its effectiveness in being a hair loss solution. This transplant process is done by extracting individual hair follicles from one area of your skin and transplanting them to another part of your body where hair is sparse or absent.
Our board-certified plastic surgeons use cutting-edge technology instead of traditional scalpels to gently extract your own individual hair follicles from the donor site, typically located at the sides and back of your scalp. The FUE procedure can be done for both men and women. Men get this procedure done if they are looking for more freedom hair styling.
- Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Injectable
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a non-invasive procedure that uses the healing properties of a patient’s own blood to stimulate hair growth in a specific area. The platelets contain growth factors that can trigger cell reproduction and stimulate tissue regeneration or healing in the treated area.
As a result, it triggers the activation of hair follicles, leading to improvements in hair thickness and density.
- Exosomes for Hair Loss
Exosomes are one of the most exciting therapy tools in regenerative medicine and can be used for hair loss treatments as well. Exosomes protect the hair follicles from harm and enhance their overall health.
Additionally, they play a vital role in fostering healthy cell communication necessary for optimal hair growth. Currently, exosomes are not FDA-approved for hair loss, extracellular vesicles have shown promising clinical results for treating hair loss from physicians around the world.
- Hair Growth Supplements
Hair-growth supplements provide a non-invasive alternative to surgical procedures for patients looking to fix their hair loss concerns. At Illume we offer a range of supplements tailored to promote healthy hair growth. Nutrafol, Viviscal, and Actiiv are among the options we provide, each offering unique formulations designed to nourish the scalp and support hair follicle health.
Are you a good candidate for Hair Restoration?
While there is no specific age for hair restoration, it is advised for anyone considering it to be over 25.
If you are looking for surgical procedures to be done, an ideal candidate has healthy hair on the back of the head and on the sides. This is where the donor site would be, and grafts would be taken from. It is better to start the treatment before complete baldness sets in, as it allows for the utilization of existing hair to help hide the initial stages of the restoration process.
Looking to get ahead of the game and are seeing early signs of hair loss? Non-surgical preventive techniques serve as an initial approach.
