“5 months post-procedure and I couldn’t be happier with the results.” – Real Client Reviews
Posted on Sal TuostoFebruary 24, 2024 Dr. Nam was amazing. Professional and answered all my questions though out the process.Posted on Armando gonzalezFebruary 24, 2024 Amazing centers and practice really good team Nam has been amazingPosted on Jaime TorresFebruary 17, 2024 Experience with Dr Nam and Philadelphia Hair Restoration was great and easy going. I had already gotten a restoration done back in 2022 in Colombia so wanted to fill in spots so contacted them. From the initial consultation visit to the day of the procedure Dr. Nam was very accommodating and answering any questions I had. I felt that he and his staff were very experienced and made me feel relaxed the whole time. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking about it. I got 2500 grafts done in one day.Posted on James ThomasJanuary 26, 2024 When I decided to go forward with my procedure I met with four different doctors in the area. It became clear very quickly that Dr. Ken was going to be my best option as he explained both the procedure and the recovery process very clearly and he tempered my expectations (no, you're not going to look like Elvis) During the recovery process you will have doubts as to the success of the procedure but because Dr. Ken had informed me before hand of those doubts my mind was at ease. 8 months later it turns out Dr. Ken undersold me as I cannot be more impressed with the results, Dr. Ken & his staff. If your going to spend 8 hours with a doctor going through a life changing event it is a good idea to find a good one and I believe I may have found the best one in the area. So, a big Thank you to both Dr. Ken & his Staff for both the professionalism and just as importantly the incredible results. Bill DPosted on Jay WainwrightDecember 8, 2023 These guys were really great at explaining the process to me and answering questions I had. The procedure is long and the first few days are tough but I am glad I did it and I love the results so far.Posted on Steven CookDecember 4, 2023 Staff nice and friendly, Dr. Nam was very nice and has been very responsive.Posted on Kelly FordSeptember 7, 2023 Had a great day (long but enjoyable) with Dr Nam and the team. Dr Farole checked on me a few times and overall made the process better. I’m looking forward to seeing the results but PHR made the long day as enjoyable as it could be and were professional and informative. Dr Nam has me text him directly with any questions and seems available immediately.
What Are the Benefits of a PRP Hair Treatment?
If you are looking to reclaim your hair’s fullness and vitality without invasive procedures, our PRP hair treatments harness your body’s natural healing mechanisms to stimulate lasting regrowth and improve overall scalp health.

No Incisions, No Grafts, No Surgical Downtime
This quick, non-surgical treatment requires zero recovery time, making it the perfect solution to fit into a busy schedule with no disruption to your daily routine.
Minimally Invasive, Highly Successful
By boosting blood circulation and nurturing the scalp environment, this minimally invasive process creates the ideal conditions for sustained, long-term hair renewal.
Strengthen Thinning Hair With Your Body’s Own Growth Factors
PRP delivers concentrated growth factors directly to the root to awaken dormant follicles and increase hair shaft diameter, restoring volume and density from root to tip.
Are You a Good Candidate For PRP Hair Restoration?
PRP is a versatile regenerative treatment that often works best when hair loss is caught early. It is a safe, effective option for both men and women, especially patients who still have active hair follicles that are thinning but not completely gone.
You may be a good candidate for PRP if you:
- Have thinning hair or “dormant” follicles, rather than completely bald areas
- Want to avoid incisions, stitches, or a surgical recovery period
- Notice your hair strands becoming finer, shorter, or weaker over time
- Want to protect your existing hair and help prevent further loss
- Prefer a natural treatment that uses your own blood, with no risk of an allergic reaction or an artificial-looking result
PRP may not be the right fit if you:
- Have areas of the scalp that are smooth and shiny, which may mean the follicles are no longer viable for stimulation
- Have certain medical conditions, such as chronic liver disease or low platelet counts, that can affect the quality of your plasma
- Have untreated scalp health issues that should be addressed before beginning injections
If PRP is not the right fit for your level of hair loss, you may still be a candidate for a surgical FUE hair transplant, which can restore hair in areas where follicles are no longer active.
PRP vs. Hair Transplant Surgery: Key Differences
While both treatments are highly effective, they serve different needs. FUE hair transplants physically move follicles to balding areas, whereas PRP therapy uses your body’s own growth factors to “recharge” and thicken existing hair.
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) | FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) | |
|---|---|---|
Extraction Method
| Removes follicles one by one using precision tools
| Involves removing a strip of scalp from the back of the head
|
Scarring
| No linear scar; dot-like marks are virtually unnoticeable
| Leaves a linear scar that may be visible with short hair
|
Recovery Time
| Shorter recovery time and less post-op discomfort | Slightly longer recovery with sutures or staples |
Graft Volume
| Ideal for patients who prefer short hairstyles | May be better for those needing a high number of grafts |
Invasiveness of Procedure
| May be better for those needing a high number of grafts
| More invasive, with limited styling flexibility post-surgery |

How Does PRP Hair Restoration Work?
PRP hair restoration is a straightforward three-step process that harnesses your body’s natural healing abilities to promote natural hair growth.
Step 1: Blood Draw
A small sample of your blood is collected, similar to a routine lab test, and used as the raw material for your regenerative treatment.
Step 2: PRP Preparation
The blood is placed in a specialized centrifuge to isolate and concentrate platelet-rich plasma, creating a potent serum rich in essential growth factors.
Step 3: Scalp Injection
The concentrated PRP is strategically injected into areas of thinning, delivering growth factors directly to the follicle roots to trigger natural regrowth and thickening.
Results & Recovery: What To Expect After PRP
PRP hair treatment has minimal downtime, and most patients return to their normal routine shortly after their visit. After treatment, you may experience:
- Mild redness or tenderness
- Slight swelling around the injection sites
- Minor bruising
- A mild headache
- Temporary scalp sensitivity
These effects usually fade within 24–48 hours. To protect your scalp, avoid strenuous exercise and direct sun exposure for 1–2 days, wait at least 24 hours before washing your hair, and follow your provider’s aftercare instructions.
Your final PRP results appear gradually. Many patients notice less shedding and early improvements in thickness within a few months, with fuller results developing after a series of treatments.

The Most Commonly Asked Questions About PRP Hair Treatments in Philadelphia
PRP hair treatment is considered safe and well tolerated for most patients because it uses your own blood. Mild redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising may occur, but these effects usually fade within a few days.
PRP results develop gradually, so most patients notice changes after several months of consistent treatment. Some may see early improvements in thickness or texture sooner, but optimal results usually require a series of sessions.
PRP results are not permanent, and maintenance treatments are usually needed to preserve hair density. Many patients schedule follow-up sessions every 6 to 12 months to help maintain their results.
Success rates vary based on age, hair loss severity, overall health, and consistency with treatment. Clinical studies often report success rates around 60% to 80% for patients who follow the recommended PRP treatment plan.
