A leap in hair restoration and maintenance science, platelet-rich plasma therapy or PRP is a new, non-surgical treatment option for hair loss which uses your own blood to isolate numerous growth factors which are then used to treat areas of thinning. At Barber Surgeons Guild®, years of research drives our approach to hair restoration and hair maintenance as we innovate and implement the latest in advanced medical treatments and technology. The BSG PRP Maintenance Therapy has benefits of thickening and volumizing existing hair, combatting the process of DHT related miniaturization, and slowing down the rate of future hair loss which all contribute to its role in hair maintenance. To be effective for the long term, our protocol offers serial treatments to ensure the hair is well maintained.
Long utilized by high-level athletes and orthopedic surgeons to aid in recovery from injuries or post surgeries, PRP is one of the latest in innovative and non-surgical therapeutic treatments for hair loss. Platelet-rich plasma or autologous conditioned plasma is derived from whole blood and centrifuged to remove red blood cells, leaving a concentrate of platelet-rich plasma. In this isolated fraction are numerous essential growth factors which are used to will present in blood cells stimulate hair thickening and combat Androgenetic Alopecia, which is the medical term for male pattern baldness, or male pattern hair loss due to DHT (Dihydrotestosterone). The prominent growth factors found in PRP, include vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), transforming growth factor β (TGF-β), and insulin-like growth factor (IGF).
ATP is the organic compound for energy storage. Each ATP molecule has a specific amount of energy and all of the work done in our bodies from contracting a muscle, to growing a hair is done by using the energy stored in ATP. We eat and breath to bring in nutrients and oxygen which are used together to charge up used ATP (known as ADP or Adenosine diphosphate) back into more ATP. This is the process known as aerobic respiration. We now have the ability to create ATP in the lab, and use it as a medical therapy. BSG’s PRP Maintenance protocol includes applying an ATP solution to the scalp immediately after a session of scalp micro-needling to help the molecule get to the follicles where they can help provide additional energy.
PRP, being naturally derived, is safe, relatively painless due to our quick numbing of the area, and produces natural results. The procedure is quick, only requiring about 30 minutes. Barber Surgeons Guild® offers its PRP Maintenance program at a monthly membership rate to ensure long term success.
At Barber Surgeons Guild® we treat both men’s and women’s hair loss. If you’re a woman that suffers from hair loss but may not be a good candidate for surgical hair restoration procedures, Barber Surgeons Guild®’s PRP therapy offers the latest in non-surgical hair loss treatment options.

It’s important to note that, even with its hair growth properties, PRP is no substitute for hair restoration procedures. The BSG PRP Hair Maintenance protocol will thicken up the hair and help slow future loss, but if a more dramatic result is sought after, robotic hair restoration is the best way to achieve that goal. Many people however utilize BSG’s protocol even after they have had a restorative procedure to ensure best long term results, while others utilize it well before they ever could possibly need a procedure, simply to keep their hair as thick as possible.
