PRP Hair Restoration – PRF Hair Loss Treatment In Bryn Mawr & Philadelphia PA

Comprehensive Hair Loss Evaluation & Treatment

Hair thinning and hair loss affect millions of men and women and can significantly impactconfidence and quality of life. At Turner Dermatology, we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of hair loss in both men and women using a comprehensive, medical, and evidence-based approach.

Every patient is evaluated by a board-certified dermatology provider who performs a detailed medical history and thorough scalp and hair examination. When appropriate, advanced diagnostic tools such as trichoscopy or scalp biopsy are utilized to accurately identify the cause of hair loss and to distinguish between scarring and non-scarring alopecia.

We diagnose and treat a full spectrum of hair loss disorders and offer a complete diagnostic workup, including targeted laboratory testing when indicated, to identify contributing medical, hormonal, inflammatory, or autoimmune factors. Our approach focuses on uncovering the underlying cause of hair loss and delivering individualized treatment plans grounded in peer-reviewed, evidence-based medicine.

Medical Scalp Injections (Kenalog)

Intralesional Kenalog (triamcinolone) injections are an established, evidence-based treatment for inflammatory and autoimmune hair loss conditions, including alopecia areata, LPP, and FFA. These injections help suppress inflammation around the hair follicle, slow disease progression, and preserve existing hair.

Kenalog injections are performed in-office and are often combined with topical therapies, oral medications, and regenerative treatments such as PRP or PRF as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.

What is PRP for Hair Loss?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it in a centrifuge to isolate concentrated platelets and plasma, then injecting that solution into the scalp. Platelets contain powerful growth factors that help stimulate dormant hair follicles, improve blood flow to the scalp, and enhance hair thickness and density.

Benefits of PRP:

• Strengthens existing hair
• Promotes new hair growth
• Reduces hair shedding
• Improves scalp health
• Minimally invasive, with no downtime
