Hair Lossin Christchurch

Quick Answer

Thinning hair in men and women is most often androgenetic: follicles miniaturise over successive growth cycles, producing finer, shorter hairs until they stop cycling altogether. It is easiest to influence early, while the follicle is still alive, which is why we assess it rather than wait. Silk treats it with platelet-rich plasma. A small volume of your own blood is drawn and spun to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, which a registered nurse then injects across the thinning areas of the scalp. Each session takes 45 to 60 minutes. The initial course is three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart, at $600 a session or $1,550 prepaid for three. Improvement typically shows from two to three months, with the full result over six to twelve months.
