Treatment for Hair Loss in Twin Falls, ID

TED Treatment

The TED (which stands for transepidermal drug delivery) is a painless medical device that uses ultrasound waves and air pressure to temporarily disrupt the phospholipid bilayer in the skin and painlessly drive growth factors into the scalp to stimulate hair growth and improve hair thickness. The TED treatment is a great option for anyone experiencing hair thinning or hair loss and is particularly beneficial for hereditary and age-related hair loss and temporary hair loss from conditions such as childbirth, post-surgery, etc. Our signature hair loss protocol at Onyx involves supplementation with clinically-proven hair loss supplements, TED treatments, and an at-home topical product to further encourage optimal results.

Every patient responds to treatment differently, but TED has been clinically validated with more than 20 published studies, and patients rave about the results. After two weeks, most patients notice less shedding and early signs of growth. One month after treatment, many patients see new hairs starting to grow. After two months, patients report increased hair volume, and after four months, many patients report less scalp showing and their bald spots beginning to fill in. If you have been bothered by bald spots, thinning hair, or excessive shedding, contact us today to see if TED is right for you!

PRP / PRF Treatment

Platelet rich plasma (PRP) and platelet rich fibrin (PRF) are cosmetic treatments that use a person’s own blood to stimulate hair growth. Platelets are very small cells in the blood that the body uses for clotting.

PRP/PRF is collected via a blood draw and placed inside a centrifuge which separates the PRP/PRF from other blood components. After the spinning process, the PRF is collected from the top of the vial into a syringe. It is then injected and microneedled into the scalp over areas of thinning and hair loss. When PRF is injected and microneedled into areas of hair loss, it causes a mild inflammatory response which triggers the healing cascade.

Many patients have heard of platelet rich plasma or PRP. PRF is considered a more advanced form of PRF because it contains more platelets, growth factors, stem cells, and white blood cells. After PRF is injected, the platelets are arranged and organized in the tissue and release several enzymes and growth factors that promote healing and tissue restoration. These can help to stimulate hair follicles, reduce hair loss, and improve hair density. After PRF injections, topical PRF is microneedled into the scalp. Microneedling is a procedure that uses an automated pen device with a sterile needle cartridge to create thousands of microinjuries in the skin. These microinjuries also initiate the healing cascade and increase blood flow to the area. Microneedling has been shown to improve hair loss by stimulating stem cells and activating growth factors. When combined with PRF, patients can obtain optimal results for hair loss.

The patient’s scalp is numbed with anesthetic cream before treatment and a small quantity of blood is drawn from a vein. The blood is then spun down in a special centrifuge to separate its components which include red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma. The platelet-rich plasma is then separated from the rest of the blood and drawn up for injection into the scalp. The PRF is first injected into the areas of the scalp with hair thinning, and then microneedled into the scalp. Treatment takes approximately 75 minutes.
