This informational presentation is about hair regeneration.
Are you of someone you know is suffering from Hair loss or thinning hair?
Did you know that men can start losing their hair as their early as their teen years? And
that it's been estimated that 30% of women suffer from hair loss under the age of 50
and that percentage rises up to 50% over the age of 50. For men, traditional medical therapy
has included Minoxidil and finasteride. For women, the medical treatment has been limited
to minoxidil. Although medical therapy has helped many people, there has been a need
for more options to help people suffering from thinning hair.
The search for a cure for hair loss has challenged physicians and research scientists for decades.
In this presentation, you will learn about the pioneering application of a remarkable
wound healing technology to help people suffering from hair loss. This presentation is for informational
purposes and is not a substitute for proper medical examination.
Dr. Amiya Prasad, a highly respected cosmetic and reconstructive surgeon, has worked for
several years developing a medical treatment for thinning hair using a material called
extracellular matrix. As a multispecialty surgeon, Dr. Amiya Prasad has applied extracellular
matrix technology to surgical procedures for eyes, ears, facelifts, reconstructive surgery,
body procedures and hair transplant surgery. Focused in helping men and women with thinning
hair, Dr. Prasad developed his own combination of extracellular matrix, platelet-rich plasma,
Vitamin D and other materials to help people with thinning hair.
How does it work? In the past few years, advancement in wound healing technology such extracellular
matrix or ECM has helped surgeons like Dr. Prasad help patients with complex problems.
When this material was used in hair transplant surgery, it was observed that thinning hair
actually became thicker. Dr. Prasad combined his surgical knowledge using ECM with the
latest research from top universities such as the University of Pennsylvania, Yale University
and the University of Tokyo to create his own formulation and delivery methods to help
men and women with thinning hair. Based on recent scientific studies, the cells
and signals between the cells that produce the hair, stop working resulting in hair thinning
and eventually hair loss. The clinical evidence indicates that this advanced wound healing
technology combined with Dr. Prasad's techniques restarts the cells and necessary signals to
restore the hair growth cycle. Dr. Prasad has helped people who have come
from all over the world.
Dr. Prasad: The work I've done has helped people think
differently about hair thinning. For decade after decade, the hair transplant industry
seems committed to sell surgical procedures and not managing patients. These so-called
hair transplant specialists focus on patients to come back for more surgery knowing that
the patients would continue to lose hair and need more procedures to keep up with their
appearance. We now have an opportunity to change the conversation about hair thinning
and apply hair regeneration as a way to restore your hair without surgery. This doesn't mean
that hair transplantation is obsolete but a significant percentage of people with thinning
hair can benefit from hair regeneration.
So what is the treatment? First, you will meet our staff and have detailed
medical examination including medical photography and microscopic examination. Your treatment
options and suggested plan will be explained and discussed thoroughly. Once it has been
determined that you are a suitable candidate, the clinical team will begin the process.
You will have a simple blood draw like you would have a routine laboratory test. As your
platelet-rich plasma is being prepared and mixed with the extracellular matrix and other
materials customized for you, a topical anesthetic cream is applied to your scalp. The area to
be treated is made numb and then you have your treatment. Most clients go back to work
and normal activities the next day. After your treatment, you will receive instructions.
The staff, including your doctor, is always available to you 24 hours a day. You will
be scheduled for follow-up examinations but you will be welcomed to come back as often
as you like if you have any concerns.
