PRP or TED: Which hair growth treatment is right for you?

This post comes from a recent Newsletter from Dr. Bauman that you can subscribe to here. 

Hello, it’s Dr. Bauman.

There’s never a “good” time to lose your hair.

But if you are dealing with hair loss, here’s good news:

You have more effective hair restoration options available today than you did just a few years ago.

For example, PRP with PDOgro™ and TransEpidermal Delivery, or TED.

If you’re interested in upgrading the look, feel, and health of your hair, then PRP with PDOgro™ or TED can help. They’re two of our most popular hair restoration therapies.

But which one is right for you?

To truly answer that question, I’d need to sit down with you for a one-on-one consultation. That way, I could diagnose the root cause of your hair loss and create a treatment plan tailored to your hair health challenges and goals.

Go here to book a private one-on-one consultation (available both in-person and online)

In this email, however, I can tell you about both PRP with PDOgro™ and TED so you can get a sense of which one might be the best fit for you.

First, let’s talk about PRP with PDOgro™.

PDOgro™ is our next-level, next-generation PRP that makes our traditional PRP therapy even more effective.

PRP with PDOgro™ uses your own body’s powerful growth factors and a safe, FDA-cleared “scaffold”: PDO threads.

As these PDO threads are absorbed by your scalp, they stimulate new blood vessel formation, collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid production. They trigger a massive release of growth factors. And they also activate fibroblasts, special cells that are involved with hair growth.

Result: A healthier, thicker head of hair that lasts a full year.

Although PRP with PDOgro™ does require local anesthesia and a blood draw, it’s a generally comfortable procedure. There’s no downtime or recovery time.

You can finish a PRP with PDOgro™ treatment in an hour or two.

To get an even better idea of how PRP with PDOgro™ works and what it can do for you, please watch this interview I recorded with ABC News.

Now let me tell you about TransEpidermal Delivery, or TED—the latest technology in hair restoration.

Through a combination of sound waves and air pressure, TED painlessly delivers a potent hair growth serum into your scalp. This serum contains amino acids, numerous powerful growth factors and state-of-the-art peptides designed to increase blood flow, optimize scalp health, anchor hair fibers, and stimulate hair follicles to produce thicker, stronger, healthier hair.

With TED there’s no pain, no needles, no anesthesia, and no downtime.

And a typical treatment takes only 20 — 25 minutes, and patients have said “it’s relaxing.”

If you’re uncomfortable with needles (and plenty of people are), then TED is a great needle-free alternative to PRP with PDOgro™.

For a deeper dive into what makes TED so unique (and to see before-and-after videos of real life TED patients), please click here.

Your choice between PRP with PDOgro™ and TED will ultimately come down to your hair health challenge and goals, and which treatment is likely to get the best results for you.

As I said earlier, there’s never a “good” time to lose your hair.

But I hope you’ll agree that it’s GREAT news to have access to effective hair restoration treatments that did not even exist a few years ago.

If you’re a new patient, or…

If you’re an existing PRP with PDOgro™ patient and it’s been over a year since your last treatment, or you’d like to learn about utilizing TED to enhance your existing hair growth treatment plan…
