What causes hair loss?
Hair loss can be heredity or be an effect of hormonal changes and certain medical conditions. However, 95% of men can blame Androgenetic Alopecia. Andro-what? That's a fancy word for common male pattern baldness (MPB). Anyone can suffer from hair loss on their head, but it is more common in men. 🙇
According to the American Hair Loss Association, by age 35, two-thirds of American men will undergo a noticeable amount of hair loss. By age 50, that stat rises to 85% of men reporting significantly thinning hair.
In short, you're not alone! More and more people each year are seeking out non-invasive hair restoration treatments. Growth Factor Injections are a great solution for men and women experiencing hair loss.

What are Growth Factor Injections?
Growth Factor Injections are a modern hair loss treatment designed to naturally stimulate hair growth using your cells. Found naturally within the body, Growth Factors can be easily harvested from your blood. (In a bit, we'll share what to expect from an injection treatment.)
How do Growth Factors help hair loss?
Once injected, Growth Factors bind to the hair follicle. This is the part of the hair that lives under the skin and is responsible for creating new hair. These bound Growth Factors activate other collagen-producing cells and kick your follicles into shape. They promote tissue regeneration and improve overall scalp condition and health. Plus, they spark natural hair growth! We've heard doctors call it the "organic way of treating hair loss.”
What to expect from Growth Factor Injections
A Growth Factor Injection Treatment here at THE MED SPA™ begins by taking a sample of your blood. It's then put into a centrifuge to separate red and white blood cells and gather your unique Growth Factors (AKA Liquid Gold). Next, we inject your concentrated serum into the thinning areas of your scalp using a very fine needle.
It is a non-invasive treatment with no downtime, but there is a bit of discomfort during the treatment. You may experience some tenderness in the injection area, but this is temporary. For maximum results, we do recommend 4-6 treatments and at least 6 months before visible results. You need to give your body time to work its magic!
Am I a candidate for hair restoration like Growth Factor Injections?
Anyone suffering from hair loss can benefit from Growth Factor Injections. We see both men and women, but the success of this treatment varies.
Growth Factor Injections help promote growth in the areas that are thinning out, not already bald. It cannot resurrect hair in bald areas where the follicle is dormant. Some patients use Growth Factor Injections as a preventative treatment to reduce the rate of hair loss.
