PRP / Cellenis PRP
Cellenis PRP injected directly at the follicular level stimulates natural hair growth and scalp health using your body's own growth factors — no synthetic chemicals, minimal recovery.
Uses your body's own growth factors
Cellenis PRP is derived from your own blood, delivering the same growth factor signals your body uses naturally for tissue repair — with no synthetic additives.
Injected at the follicular level for direct stimulation
PRP is delivered precisely at the depth of the hair follicle, placing growth factors exactly where they need to be to stimulate follicular activity.
No synthetic chemicals or hormones
The Cellenis PRP protocol uses only the patient's own blood components, making it an appropriate option for patients who prefer to avoid pharmaceutical interventions.
Improves hair density and scalp health
Over a series of treatments, patients typically see improvements in hair shaft thickness, density, and scalp condition as the follicular environment is restored.
Minimal recovery time
Most patients experience mild tenderness at injection sites for one to two days, with no significant restriction on daily activities following treatment.
Also known as
Cellenis PRP is processed from the patient's own blood and injected directly into the scalp at the level of the hair follicles. The concentrated growth factors — including platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and epidermal growth factor (EGF) — stimulate dormant follicles, prolong the active anagen growth phase, and improve scalp vascularity. The treatment is typically performed in a series of three to four sessions spaced four to six weeks apart, with maintenance treatments recommended every six to twelve months to sustain the benefits.
TITLE:
PRP Hair Restoration for Thinning Hair and Shedding | Dr. David Burbank CA
DESCRIPTION:
How do injections made from your own blood trigger thinning hair to grow back thicker and healthier?
✅ Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is created by spinning your blood in a special separator that drives the red blood cells to the bottom and pushes a gold liquid to the top.
✅ This gold liquid contains the vital regenerative components of your blood that actively heal tissue and rebuild healthy connective structures.
✅ When injected directly into the scalp, PRP activates a deep immune-regenerative response to structurally restore your scalp skin and awaken hair follicles.
✅ The procedure is made completely tolerable and comfortable through specialized numbing protocols so that you do not experience pain.
✅ You will notice a dramatic reduction in hair shedding—such as fewer hairs on your pillow or in the shower drain—within just days to weeks after your treatment.
✅ You can wash your hair gently as soon as the next day, though you must wait a few days before using harsh chemical hair dyes or irritating styling products.
✅ This treatment works by reviving follicles that are currently dormant, sick, or underperforming, making early-stage thinning the absolute best time to treat.
✅ Because your hair follicles will naturally face ongoing aging or systemic triggers over time, consistent maintenance sessions are required to keep hair growing thick.

VIDEO TRANSCRIPTION (CONDENSED):
Q: How do injections made from my own blood trigger my thinning hair to grow back thicker and healthier?
Dr. David: Your immune system is naturally regenerative. By isolating platelet-rich plasma (PRP)—the gold liquid that separates to the top when we spin your blood—we harvest the exact components needed to regrow tissue, restore the health of your scalp skin, and trigger thicker hair growth.
Q: Does getting these natural growth factor injections directly into my scalp hurt?
Dr. David: Without numbing, scalp injections would absolutely hurt. Because we utilize specialized numbing techniques before the procedure, the injections are entirely tolerable and you will not experience pain.
Q: How many days do I need to wait before I can wash my hair, dye it, or use styling products?
Dr. David: Because we use needles, the scalp needs a few days to fully heal before exposure to irritating chemicals like hair dyes. You can wash your hair as early as the next day, but you must do it very gently to avoid irritating the healing areas.
Q: How many sessions will I need before I notice my hair stop shedding so much?
Dr. David: You will begin to notice a significant reduction in shedding within days to weeks. The primary way you will track this improvement is by noticing far less hair collecting in the shower drain or left on your pillow in the morning.
Q: Can these injections fix advanced male pattern baldness, or does it only work for early-stage thinning?
Dr. David: It depends on the follicles. If baldness is so advanced that the follicles are completely gone, PRP cannot grow entirely new ones. It works by reviving follicles that are still present but are currently dormant or sick, which is why treating early-stage thinning is highly recommended.
Q: Will my hair temporarily shed more right after my scalp treatment?
Dr. David: No. This PRP treatment will not cause your hair to experience increased temporary shedding after a session.
Q: How long do the hair density results last, and do I need to get maintenance shots?
Dr. David: Your hair density will steadily improve and last for months, but hair restoration is never a one-and-done solution. Because your scalp will naturally return to its regular aging process or original thinning triggers, ongoing maintenance treatments are always required to sustain and continue hair regrowth..
