Caitlin was a new patient to the Medi Tresse Scarsdale, NY office. Her hair loss gradually started at 24 years old and her concern was that her scalp was showing and drawing more attention to her hair loss, causing more additional stress.
Previously, Caitlin tried Minoxidil for about one year, as well as Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy about five years ago. Minoxidil is a topical formula to help promote hair growth, and most commonly known for assisting with the effects of androgenetic alopecia, or Female Pattern Hair Loss (FPHL).
Caitlin came to Medi Tresse seeking a solution to prevent further hair loss and in hopes of regrowing some hair so her scalp does not show as much. She booked her initial consultation and was diagnosed with androgenic alopecia, which is also known as Female Pattern Hair Loss (FPHL).
With all of our treatments, we have three main goals: stop further loss, make the hair you have thicker, healthier, and if possible regrow hair. We like to remind all of our patients that attaining any of these goals is a success.
Caitlin and the Medi Tresse team decided that the best treatment plan for her would be three treatments of Optimal Platelet Concentration™ Therapy and the LaserCap HD+. Medi Tresse is one of the first hair loss clinics in the country to be able to provide this unique hair restoration treatment to their patients.
Exclusively offered by Medi Tresse, this Optimal Platelet Concentration™ Therapy gives the Medi Tresse team the ability to personalize treatment by providing an optimal number of platelets into the scalp to support blood vessels and hair restoration. Like PRP Therapy, this procedure relies on platelet-rich plasma to fight hair loss.
The LaserCap® is a device that utilizes Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) to stimulate the hair follicle cells to grow. The LaserCap® utilizes a cool beam laser that encourages tissue repair and recovery on the scalp. These forms of light are not capable of burning skin, which makes prolonged use safe for patients.
The LaserCap® is a non-surgical treatment option and can be used in the comfort of your own home.
Supplements for hair regrowth are important for any individual going through female hair loss, and as Caitlin is a vegetarian, supplements are especially important for her. In addition to the LaserCap® and Optimal Platelet Concentration™ Therapy, she has also been utilizing Tresse Fortifier and Revitalizer as a part of her treatment plan.
Optimal Platelet Concentration™ Therapy is available at the following Medi Tresse locations: Boston, Worcester, Westchester, New York City offices, and available soon at the Chattanooga office. The LaserCap® and LLLT are available at all locations. The Tresse Fortifier and Revitalizer can be shipped directly to your home.
Caitlin had three treatments of Optimal Platelet Concentration™ Therapy at the Medi Tresse office. All three treatments were four weeks apart and over the course of the eight weeks, she has seen significant hair regrowth results.
Caitlin is happy with the current 8-week results and will be continuing the treatment plan. As a part of her treatment plan, Caitlin will continue to do booster treatments every 6 months with OPC Therapy and LaserCap®. The treatment plan moving forward will also include Tresse Prebiotic to bolster the supplement regiment and add Minoxidil to maintain the results as she is a vegetarian and supplements are important to her.
