How does amniotic fluid for hair loss work?
Epidermal Growth Factor, or EGF, is one of the major beneficial growth factors in amniotic fluid and tissue products and is responsible for cell growth and proliferation. This growth factor can essentially turn the hair follicle cells back on and kick them into a proliferation state where they are active and producing hair. This is the basic idea, although the mechanisms behind their activity are more complicated than this.
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor, or VEGF, is a growth factor responsible for blood vessel formation and regeneration. You probably already know that blood flow plays a major role in hair growth and hair loss. Vascular Endothelial growth factor can stimulate regeneration of the blood delivery system of the scalp, revascularization, and angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels) are two technical terms for what VEGF does for dermal tissues.
Plasma-Derived Growth Factor, or PDGF, is another growth factor responsible for blood vessel formation, or angiogenesis as stated above.
There are many more cytokines present in amniotic fluid and tissue products that play a part in the positive outcomes being seen in amniotic fluid for hair loss treatments. The combination of all these cytokines results in a hair loss treatment unlike any other option on the market.
Another benefit of amniotic fluid for hair loss treatments is that it is readily available. It can be stored on-site and treatments can usually be performed immediately. There are merits to all types of regenerative treatments and therapies, but in this case, the simplicity, convenience, and availability of amniotic fluid for hair loss treatment seem to be the ideal treatment option for hair regrowth.
Plasma therapy is also an excellent option for hair growth and restoration. Plasma contains platelets and blood cell fragments and is rich in restorative growth factors that accelerate cellular growth and stimulate cells to start regrowing thicker, healthier strands of hair.
By drawing a sample of your blood, separating, and concentrating the platelets, we can produce a highly concentrated solution. Once injected into your scalp, the serum works to boost hair growth.
