Hair Restoration
At La Jolla Med Spa, we offer a holistic, science-backed Hair Restoration Program designed to not only regrow hair — but to restore confidence.
Our approach goes far beyond a single treatment. We address every aspect of hair loss with a personalized plan that strengthens existing follicles, reactivates dormant ones, and, when appropriate, replaces lost hair through advanced transplantation.
🧠What we recommend for hair restoration:
We need to think of your scalp as a garden. We want to ensure that your garden has the best soil, fertilizer, water, and sunshine to make the crops grow.
✅ Comprehensive Hair Panel Blood Test
A Hair Panel Blood Test is a comprehensive laboratory evaluation used to identify medical, hormonal, nutritional, and metabolic factors that may contribute to hair thinning or hair loss. Rather than treating hair loss alone, this test helps uncover the underlying causes affecting hair follicle health.
Hair growth is strongly influenced by hormones, nutrient levels, thyroid function, and inflammation. By analyzing key biomarkers in the blood, providers can determine whether imbalances are interfering with normal hair growth cycles.
✅ Nutritional support and supplementation for optimal hair growth
Healthy hair growth depends on the right balance of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and metabolic support. At La Jolla Med Spa, we use targeted supplementation to address the nutritional and biochemical factors that influence hair follicle health and the hair growth cycle.
Hair follicles are highly active cells that require consistent nutritional support to produce strong, healthy hair. Deficiencies in key nutrients can lead to thinning, shedding, slower growth, or fragile hair. Through personalized evaluation and laboratory testing, we identify specific deficiencies or imbalances that may be contributing to hair loss.
✅ Injectable Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), or Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) scalp treatments use your body’s own natural growth factors to stimulate hair follicles and support healthier hair growth. These regenerative treatments are designed to improve scalp health and reactivate weakened or dormant follicles.
During the procedure, a small sample of your blood is processed to concentrate powerful platelets and growth factors. This nutrient-rich plasma or fibrin is then carefully injected into the scalp, where it helps stimulate the hair follicles and improve the environment needed for healthy hair growth.

NeoGraft Hair Transplantation
NeoGraft® Hair Transplant
NeoGraft® Hair Restoration is an advanced, minimally invasive hair transplant procedure that restores natural hair growth using your own healthy hair follicles. This state-of-the-art Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technology gently harvests individual follicles from areas of thicker hair and precisely implants them into areas of thinning or balding.
Unlike traditional strip surgery, NeoGraft requires no scalpel, no stitches, and leaves virtually no visible scarring, allowing for faster healing and a more comfortable experience.
​
During the procedure, each follicle is carefully placed at the correct angle and density to recreate a natural hairline and natural-looking hair growth pattern. Over the following months, the transplanted follicles begin producing new, permanent hair that grows just like the rest of your natural hair.
​
NeoGraft is ideal for both men and women experiencing:
-
Receding hairlines
-
Thinning hair
-
Pattern baldness
-
Crown hair loss
-
Hairline restoration
Benefits of NeoGraft Hair Restoration

Hair Growth Timeline
Lo-Shave Hair Transplant (FUE)
A Lo-Shave Hair Transplant is an advanced Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) procedure that restores thinning or receding areas without shaving all of the patient’s hair. The donor area is carefully shaved in a strip technique that allows the hair to fall over the harvest area. The individual hair follicles are carefully harvested from the donor area and implanted into areas of hair loss while leaving the surrounding hair intact.
This technique is ideal for patients who want to maintain their current hairstyle and keep the procedure discreet, allowing them to return to daily activities quickly without the obvious appearance of having had a transplant.
Each follicle is placed with precision to match the natural angle, direction, and density of existing hair, creating seamless and natural-looking results. The transplanted follicles gradually begin producing new permanent hair over the following months.
​
Benefits of a Lo-Shave Hair Transplant

-
Faster return to work and social activities
-

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)
How NeoGraft Works
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a hair transplant technique where individual hair follicles, typically 1-4 hairs, are extracted from the donor area (usually the back or sides of the head) and transplanted to areas experiencing hair loss. It's known for its natural-looking results and minimal scarring compared to older methods like FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation).
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
What it is:
FUE involves surgically removing single hair follicles from the donor area using a small punch tool and then transplanting them to the recipient area (where hair loss is occurring).
Benefits:
Natural-looking results: FUE allows for precise placement of hair follicles, resulting in a more natural-looking hairline and hair density.
Minimal scarring:
Because individual follicles are extracted, FUE leaves behind small, pinpoint scars that are less noticeable than the linear scar often associated with FUT.
Shorter recovery time:
The minimal invasiveness of FUE can lead to a faster healing period compared to FUT.
​
Procedure:
Shaving the donor area: The donor area (where hair follicles will be taken) is shaved to allow for easier access and identification of individual follicles.
​
Extracting follicular units:
Individual hair follicles are carefully extracted using a small punch tool, leaving behind tiny, round scars.
​
Creating recipient sites:
The recipient area (where hair is to be transplanted) is prepared by making small incisions to accommodate the transplanted hair follicles.
​
Transplanting hair follicles:
The extracted hair follicles are then carefully implanted into the recipient sites.
