Hair Restoration
Rebuild Density Before Hair Loss Progresses Further
Hair restoration at Aestique Medispa starts with figuring out why hair is thinning in the first place, since a treatment plan built around the wrong cause rarely produces lasting results. Dr. Theodore A. Lazzaro evaluates each patient across our Greensburg, Shadyside, and Wexford, PA locations before recommending a path forward, whether that means PRP hair restoration , a topical protocol, or a combination approach. Most patients seeking a hair loss treatment are further along than they realize by the time they book a consultation, which is part of why earlier intervention tends to produce better long-term density than waiting. As a non-surgical hair restoration option, PRP works with your body’s own biology rather than transplanting tissue from elsewhere on the scalp. Whatever hair loss treatment path fits your situation, it starts with an honest look at how much follicle activity remains.

What Causes Hair Loss?
Hair loss has several distinct drivers, and the right treatment depends on identifying which one applies to you. Genetic thinning, known clinically as androgenic alopecia , accounts for the majority of cases and follows a predictable pattern in both men and women. An androgenic alopecia treatment plan looks different depending on how far the pattern has progressed by the time you start. Hormonal shifts, stress, nutritional gaps, and certain medications can also accelerate shedding, sometimes independent of genetics entirely.
Hair Restoration Options
Aestique offers a range of approaches depending on how advanced the thinning is and what’s driving it. For many patients, PRP hair therapy alone is enough to slow shedding and encourage regrowth in areas that still have viable follicles. Others benefit from pairing PRP hair therapy with topical treatments or microneedling to improve product absorption into the scalp. As a non-surgical hair restoration category, these combination approaches are often the right starting point for a hair loss treatment plan before considering more involved options.
PRP Hair Restoration
PRP hair restoration uses a concentrated portion of your own blood, rich in growth factors, injected directly into the scalp to stimulate dormant follicles. The process kicks off with a routine blood draw, followed by centrifugation to separate platelet-rich plasma from the rest of the sample. That plasma is then injected across the thinning areas, where the growth factors signal nearby follicles to re-enter an active growth phase. Because the material comes from your own blood, this significantly reduces the risk of allergic reaction or rejection, which is part of why this approach has become a common first step before considering more invasive options.
Male Hair Loss vs Female Hair Loss
Male Hair Loss
Male hair loss typically follows a recognizable pattern, with a noticeable recession at the temples and thinning at the crown, driven largely by genetics and hormonal sensitivity at the level of the hair follicles. Because this pattern is so consistent, an androgenic alopecia treatment plan for men can often start sooner and more confidently than for less predictable presentations.
Female Hair Loss
Female hair loss more often presents as diffuse thinning across the scalp rather than a receding hairline, and can be tied to hormonal changes, postpartum shifts, or thyroid function alongside genetic factors. Because the pattern is less predictable than typical male-pattern loss, an evaluation for female hair loss usually includes a closer look at recent life changes, medication history, and bloodwork before settling on a treatment approach.
Treatment Timeline
Most patients begin a series of three to four PRP sessions scheduled four to six weeks apart, since follicles respond gradually rather than all at once. Early signs of reduced shedding often appear within six to eight weeks, with visible hair regrowth typically becoming noticeable around the three- to four-month mark. A maintenance session every six months or so helps sustain results once the initial series is complete.
Results
Results vary based on how much viable follicle activity remains in the treated areas, which is why an in-person evaluation matters more than a generic timeline. Patients who start treatment while follicles are still miniaturizing, rather than fully dormant, tend to see the most noticeable hair regrowth over a full course of sessions. Ongoing maintenance sessions help protect that improvement as the natural aging process continues.
Why Choose Aestique Medispa
Hair loss evaluation isn’t a quick add-on at Aestique. Dr. Theodore A. Lazzaro reviews scalp pattern, medical history, and prior hair-thinning treatment attempts before recommending PRP or any other hair-thinning treatment, since starting with the wrong protocol can waste months of a patient’s time. That same evaluation process applies whether you visit our Greensburg, Shadyside, or Wexford office.

FAQs
Does PRP hair restoration work?
Most patients with some remaining follicle activity see measurable improvement, though results vary based on how advanced the thinning is at the start.
How many treatments are needed?
Most patients begin with three to four sessions spaced four to six weeks apart, followed by periodic maintenance visits.
How long before hair grows back?
Reduced shedding often appears within six to eight weeks, with visible thickening typically noticeable around three to four months.
Am I a candidate for hair restoration?
Most patients with some active follicles remaining are candidates, which your provider will confirm during an in-person scalp evaluation.
Is PRP hair restoration permanent?
Results require periodic maintenance sessions to sustain, since PRP supports existing follicles rather than permanently altering hair growth biology.
