Growth Factors for Hair Restoration in Reno Tahoe and Carson City, NV

Hair loss affects millions of people and leads to thinning hair, receding hairlines, and reduced confidence. By adding growth factors to scalp treatments, such as microneedling or direct injections, patients can experience more potent and productive hair restoration solutions without surgery.

These advanced treatments harness the body’s natural healing mechanisms to stimulate hair follicles, promote new growth, and improve scalp health.

What Are Growth Factors?

Growth factors are proteins that are produced in our bodies and play a crucial role in cell signaling, tissue repair, and regeneration. In the context of hair restoration, these proteins stimulate dormant hair follicles, enhance blood circulation to the scalp, and support the growth of thicker, healthier hair.

When used in hair restoration treatments, growth factors can be derived from platelet-rich plasma (PRP), stem cells, or bioengineered sources. Bonaldi Aesthetics uses a hair growth factor solution from AnteAGE MD®, which incorporates 12 bioidentical growth factors and cytokines that stimulate the hair follicles. Cytokines are a type of growth factor instrumental in cell-to-cell communication.

What Benefits Do Growth Factors for Hair Restoration Provide?

Hair restoration using growth factors offers several advantages over traditional hair loss treatments:

Stimulates Hair Follicles

Unlike most non-surgical hair treatments that merely slow down the rate of hair loss, growth factors stimulate and reactivate hair follicle stem cells, promoting hair follicle development and extending the hair growth phase.

Improves Hair Health and Thickness

These regenerative proteins nourish the scalp and restore follicle function, increasing hair volume and improving the quality of each strand.

Non-surgical Hair Restoration

Growth factor hair treatments require no incisions or sutures and no significant recovery period. The microneedling and injection techniques used to deliver this treatment deep into the scalp make it a convenient option for those seeking effective natural hair restoration.

Enhances Scalp Health

A healthy scalp is necessary for hair regrowth. Growth factors reduce inflammation, improve hydration, and support a balanced scalp environment, creating ideal conditions for hair follicles to thrive.

Safe and Well-Tolerated

Since growth factors come from natural sources, they carry little to no risk of side effects when compared to other hair restoration treatments and are well-tolerated by most patients.

Treats Hair Loss in Both Men and Women

This treatment is effective for individuals experiencing various types of hair thinning and loss, regardless of gender.

Can Be Combined with Other Hair Restoration Methods

Growth factors can be used along with PRP therapy, exosomes, laser or RF treatments, and even hair transplants to enhance results.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Growth Factors for Hair Restoration?

Regenerative hair restoration using growth factors can be an ideal solution for men and women experiencing mild to moderate hair loss who want to rejuvenate their natural hair growth. Good candidates include:

  • Those with early-stage hair thinning
  • Individuals with androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness)
  • Those experiencing stress-related or temporary hair loss
  • People with age-related hair thinning
  • Individuals looking for non-surgical hair restoration options
  • Patients who want to optimize their hair transplant results

This treatment is not recommended for individuals with complete baldness or those with medical conditions that cause irreversible follicle damage. A consultation with our hair restoration professional can determine if this approach is suitable for your needs.

How Are Regenerative Hair Growth Treatments Performed?

The hair restoration process using growth factors is straightforward and easily performed as an in-office procedure using these steps:

Consultation and Scalp Assessment

Our hair restoration specialist will assess your scalp, hair density, and medical history. After discussing your symptoms and concerns, they will explain your options and potential results to determine the treatment that will best meet your needs.

Preparing the Scalp

Before treatment, the scalp is cleansed to remove oils, dirt, and hair products. A topical anesthetic may also be applied to minimize discomfort.

  • Microneedling Method: A microneedling device creates tiny channels in the scalp, allowing growth factors to penetrate deeper and stimulate follicular activity. Radiofrequency can be combined with microneedling, PRP, and growth factors for maximum benefits.
  • Direct Injections: The growth factors are injected into specific areas of the scalp using a fine needle to ensure precise delivery into thinning or receding regions.
  • Laser Therapy: Laser treatments are typically performed after growth factors are delivered to the scalp.

Post-Treatment Care

After the procedure, patients receive specific aftercare instructions. There is minimal downtime, and most people resume daily activities within 24 hours.

After Hair Loss Treatment With Growth Factors

Mild redness, tingling, sensitivity, or minor swelling are expected in the treated areas, which will subside within a few hours.

  • Short-Term Changes (Two to Four Weeks): You may see some initial hair shedding, which is a natural part of the follicle renewal process, as scalp circulation increases and healthier function returns.
  • Long-Term Results (Three to Six Months): This is when noticeable improvements in hair thickness and density appear. These changes are due to the strengthening of existing hair and reduced thinning.

For the best results, multiple sessions spaced four to six weeks apart are often recommended.

How to Maintain Hair Restoration Results

To maximize the longevity of hair restoration results, use gentle, sulfate-free shampoos and avoid excessive heat styling. Consuming a balanced diet with adequate protein, vitamins, and minerals while keeping stress levels low helps to support healthy hair growth.

Hair dyes, perms, and relaxers can weaken hair and significantly impact hair restoration outcomes. However, even with the best care, periodic booster treatments every six months to a year may be necessary to sustain results.
