PRP Hair Therapy in San Antonio: Physician-Administered RegrowthYour Blood. Your Growth Factors. Your Hair.
Physician-administered platelet-rich plasma therapy that awakens dormant follicles and thickens thinning hair — using your body's own healing power.
What Is PRP Hair Therapy?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) hair therapy is a regenerative treatment that harnesses concentrated growth factors from your own blood to stimulate dormant hair follicles. It's one of the most evidence-backed, non-surgical approaches to reversing hair thinning and loss.
During treatment, a small blood sample is drawn and processed in a centrifuge to isolate a platelet-rich concentrate. This golden serum — packed with PDGF, TGF-beta, VEGF, and EGF growth factors — is then precisely injected into thinning areas of the scalp, activating stem cells within the follicle to restart the growth cycle.
Patients typically see reduced shedding within weeks and thicker, fuller hair within 3–6 months of starting their protocol.
🩺 Physician-Led, Not Delegated
At Prime Vitality, every PRP session is performed by Dr. Shiv Goel — triple board-certified in Internal Medicine, Functional Medicine, and Aesthetic Medicine. Your treatment is never delegated to a nurse or technician.
How PRP Hair Therapy Works
In one visit, we draw, concentrate, and redeploy your own growth factors directly where your follicles need them most.
Draw & Spin
A small blood sample is drawn from your arm and placed into a medical-grade centrifuge that separates platelet-rich plasma from red blood cells.
Concentrate Growth Factors
The platelet layer (rich in growth factors and cytokines) is isolated into a concentrated PRP serum—often 5–7x baseline levels found in your normal circulation.
Inject Into Follicles
Using fine microinjections, PRP is delivered into thinning areas of your scalp, where it stimulates stem cells, improves blood flow, and promotes thicker, healthier hair growth.
Who Is PRP Hair Therapy For?
PRP is an excellent option if you're noticing thinning but still have active follicles. It can also support transplant results and complement other hair restoration therapies.
Men With Early Thinning
Receding hairlines, thinning at the crown, and early male-pattern hair loss where follicles are still present.
Men Wanting Non-Surgical Options
Patients who want to delay or avoid hair transplant surgery by strengthening existing follicles with a natural, minimally invasive treatment.
Women With Diffuse Thinning
Female-pattern hair loss across the crown and midline who prefer a hormone-friendly, regenerative approach.
Post-Transplant Support
Patients who have undergone hair transplant and want to support graft survival and enhance density around transplanted follicles.
Shedding From Stress or Illness
Patients with increased shedding after stress, illness, or medications, where follicles need help re-entering a healthy growth cycle.
Maintenance & Prevention
Those with a family history of hair loss who want to proactively maintain density and slow progression using their own growth factors.

PRP Hair Therapy FAQ
Answers to the questions we hear most from patients considering PRP for hair loss.
Most patients notice reduced shedding within 4–6 weeks. Visible thickening and new growth typically appear between 3–6 months, with continued improvement for up to 12 months as follicles complete their growth cycles.
We use topical numbing to keep you comfortable. Most patients describe PRP as a series of tolerable pinches and pressure. There is minimal downtime — you can typically resume normal activities the same day, with only mild tenderness or temporary redness.
Most patients start with a series of 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Maintenance sessions every 6–12 months may be recommended to preserve and enhance results, especially if you have a strong family history of hair loss.
Because PRP uses your own blood, the risk of allergy or rejection is extremely low. The most common side effects are mild soreness, redness, or swelling at injection sites, which typically resolve within 24–48 hours.
Yes. Many patients benefit from a combination approach that includes PRP, exosome therapy, low-level laser therapy, and targeted medications. During your consultation, Dr. Goel will design a customized protocol based on your pattern of hair loss and overall health.
PRP works best when there are still active follicles present. If your hair loss is more advanced, we may recommend exosome therapy, transplant, or a combination plan. A consultation with scalp imaging will clarify your best options.
