Hair loss is a common, highly distressing condition that affects both women and men.
There are numerous disorders that can cause hair loss. One of the most common types of hair loss is androgenetic alopecia, also known as male-pattern or female-pattern hair loss. This condition is characterized by gradual thinning of hair on the scalp. However, hair loss can result from a variety of factors, including genetics, hormonal imbalances, stress, medical conditions, and nutrient deficiencies. Environmental factors, aging, and certain hairstyles or treatments that stress the scalp may also contribute to hair thinning and shedding.
We offer a full menu of hair restoration options to suit each patient’s individual needs. Our comprehensive approach ensures that every aspect of your concerns is addressed directly and with precision. Whether through a single modality or combination treatment, our trusted specialists are here to guide you through a highly personalized and satisfying experience.
Following your initial consultation, our Maryland hair restoration specialists collaborate on how to best address your unique condition and recommend a customized treatment plan to help you achieve optimal results. With all of our specialists under one roof, your diagnosis and treatment are efficiently and effectively addressed and managed. Treatment options may include:
PRP is a cutting-edge treatment that harnesses the power of your own natural blood cells to stimulate hair growth, with no surgery or downtime. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), found in the blood, plays an important role in how our bodies generate new cells and heal from injuries and wounds. Surgeons have been using PRP Therapy for years to help patients heal faster after surgery, and now we can use it to stimulate dormant hair follicles. PRP contains growth factors that stimulate the hair follicles to enter and remain in a growth phase longer, gradually creating thicker, healthier, natural hair.
PRP Therapy Requires a Medical Evaluation
Prior to the procedure, your hair loss will be evaluated by a specialist within our dermatology department to evaluate for any underlying medical causes for your hair loss. This may include blood work and/or a scalp biopsy.
Developed by dermatologists, the KeraFactor hair restoration and scalp health treatment system is a breakthrough formula that will provide you with results from the comfort of your own home. KeraFactor is a unique proprietary serum that has been shown to significantly improve hair growth. The product’s formula contains seven different biosynthetic growth factors, which mimic the core hormones and other proteins in the body that are responsible for hair growth.
NeoGraft is an extremely effective surgical hair restoration procedure that allows for the precise, artistic placement of new hair follicles to recreate a full and natural-looking hairline. This procedure reduces recovery time and works to clear the unsightly scars associated with traditional hair transplants.
Unlike the old-fashioned “punch-grafting” technology that often produces an altered texture or unnatural lines (cornrow appearance), NeoGraft has dramatically improved the results of hair restoration. This innovative technology is designed to replace lost hair, refine the thinning hairline and provide a healthy and natural appearance.
With customized solutions, each patient’s hair restoration experience can vary, depending on the condition of their hair and which specific therapies are included in their treatment plan.
Our PRP hair restoration procedure begins by drawing a small amount of blood from the patient’s arm. The blood is then spun in a centrifuge, where the platelets are separated from the other blood cells. The PRP is extracted and then injected into the areas of thinning hair. A topical numbing agent can be used to minimize any discomfort from the injections, and normal activities can be resumed immediately.
Here at Belcara Health, we offer a selection of KeraFactor products, each designed to help combat the underlying causes of hair loss in both men and women. These products are currently available for purchase in-center or by visiting our online store.
Hair transplantation is a process in which hair is taken from the back of the head and replaced in areas where hair loss has occurred. The NeoGraft device uses a special technology that can quickly and painlessly remove the hair follicles from the back of the head and implant them into the balding areas. The technology used in this new transplant procedure is faster than other outdated methods and increases the success of the grafting process.
Hair restoration procedures are specifically designed to address hair thinning and loss, which can be caused by various conditions. Here are some common ones:
Androgenetic Alopecia (Male and Female Pattern Baldness): This is the most common type of hair loss, affecting both men and women. It's caused by a combination of genetics and hormones (primarily androgens like DHT).
Alopecia Areata: An autoimmune disorder where the body attacks hair follicles, leading to patchy hair loss.
Traumatic Hair Loss: This can occur due to injuries, burns, or surgeries that damage the scalp and hair follicles.
Scarring Alopecia: A group of conditions that cause permanent hair loss due to scarring of the scalp.
Important Note:
In general, hair restoration treatments can help you restore a fuller, healthier head of hair. Our advanced solutions offer substantial rejuvenation with minimal recovery, allowing you to achieve natural-looking and long-lasting results.
If you are experiencing hair loss or thinning, hair restoration can help you enhance your hair’s growth and scalp health. During your consultation, your specialist will assess the condition of your hair and your goals to help you determine your best option.
Good candidates for PRP Therapy for hair restoration include patients with:
PRP Therapy only promotes hair growth where follicles are present, so people with no hair follicles are generally not candidates for this treatment.
Your hair restoration experience begins with a consultation with one of our leading Maryland dermatologists. During your consultation, we assess your concerns and goals, discuss your medical history, examine your physical condition, and possibly perform a few tests, including:

The recovery process for hair restoration varies depending on the type of treatment you receive. Topical treatments typically require no downtime, while procedures like PRP and NeoGraft may involve a brief recovery period. Patients can expect mild discomfort, including temporary pain, swelling, and redness in the treated area. Pain relievers and antibiotics may be prescribed to manage discomfort and reduce the risk of infection. Proper scalp care, such as gentle cleansing and avoiding harsh chemicals or styling products, is essential for optimal healing. You may need to make temporary lifestyle adjustments, including avoiding strenuous activities, limiting sun exposure, and sleeping with your head elevated.
Following your surgeon’s post-procedure instructions carefully is critical for achieving the best results. Your hair restoration specialist at Belcara Health will provide you with a detailed recovery plan, ensuring you feel informed and supported at every stage of your treatment.
Our hair restoration treatments are designed to support and enhance your hair’s natural growth. With each of the options we offer, you can expect gradual improvements in your hair’s growth, density, and thickness.
PRP Therapy usually consists of three to five sessions, approximately 4-6 weeks apart, with maintenance treatments once or twice a year, as needed. The treatments are quick, easy, safe, and effective, with no downtime and no recovery. Most patients notice an improvement in the quality of their hair, with new hair sprouting in thinning areas, in just a few months.
KeraFactor offers ongoing support for your scalp’s health, leading to meaningful improvement over time.
Like normal hair growth, which involves a growth cycle, transplantation is an ongoing process that requires a time commitment. Once the hair follicle has been implanted into the balding area, the implanted hair will stay in place for two-three weeks before shedding. After shedding, the new growth will begin in three-four months. This is both a normal and important part of the process. After that time period, the hair will continue to grow normally. Your restored hair will look natural, healthy and last a lifetime.

Transplanted hair is generally permanent. In techniques like NeoGraft, hair follicles are transplanted from areas of the scalp genetically resistant to hair loss. These follicles continue to grow normally in the transplanted area.
Recovery varies depending on the technique. Minimally invasive procedures like NeoGraft often have shorter recovery times with less downtime. PRP and KeraFactor treatments generally have minimal downtime.
Yes, combining treatments can often enhance results. For example, PRP therapy can be used in conjunction with hair transplantation to improve healing and stimulate hair growth. KeraFactor can be used as a supportive treatment alongside other procedures.
