Skin & Laser Center of NJ is thrilled to introduce our new Hair Loss Clinic, right here within our dermatology office—created to help you understand and treat hair thinning at its source.
To become part of this hair-focused clinic, you will be scheduled for an initial hair loss consultation. During this appointment, we will obtain a detailed medical history, ask a series of questions, order personalized blood tests, and take hair images. In the following visit, providers might perform a scalp biopsy if needed, and personalize an applicable treatment plan such as a topical regimen, an oral regimen, and/or a procedural regimen.
Since hair loss can be caused by many factors—such as aging, hormonal changes, stress, or inflammation—we focus on identifying your unique cause and developing a personalized plan to support healthier, fuller hair.
Hair loss and shedding are categorized into ‘scarring’ or ‘non-scarring’. These two entities have very different treatment options and protocols. Hair issues are generally complex and deserve the full attention of your provider. Therefore, hair concerns not be combined with other appointments such as skin cancer screenings.
For a deeper investigation, we recommend our new hair loss clinic, which focuses all attention on your scalp health and hair growth. This clinic utilizes the most advanced technology to track hair thickness and density over time, monitor treatment progress, and establish the most successful regimen possible.
HairMetrix® Technology
See progress with more clarity—HairMetrix is an AI-powered hair and scalp analysis system that maps hair density, thickness, and follicle health in real time. At Skin & Laser Center of NJ, this advanced technology helps our specialists precisely track hair loss patterns and evaluate how well your treatment is working without clipping, shaving, or plucking.
Hair Care Supplementation
We take a step-by-step approach to diagnosing and managing hair loss:
SCALP PRP INJECTIONS
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) works by using a concentrated form of your own blood to stimulate dormant hair follicles and prolong the growth phase of the hair cycle. It is considered a regenerative medicine treatment that delivers high concentrations of essential “growth factors” directly to the hair roots. It has been shown to wake up dormant follicles, increase blood supply to the hair roots, and thicken existing hair.
MICRONEEDLING WITH PRP
Combining microneedling with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) typically yields superior hair growth results compared to PRP injections alone. While both treatments are effective, the combination acts synergistically to enhance follicle stimulation and nutrient delivery.
Microneedling creates “micro-channels” that trigger the body’s natural wound-healing response, activating stem cells and collagen production. When PRP is applied topically over these channels, it penetrates deeper and more evenly than isolated injections.
MICRONEEDLING WITH KERAFACTOR MD + RED LIGHT
The combination of microneedling, KeraFactor MD, and red light therapy is a synergistic 3-step protocol designed to revitalize dormant hair follicles and improve scalp health. This approach is often considered more effective than traditional PRP injections because it uses a lab-engineered, high-concentration serum rather than relying on the variable quality of a patient’s own blood.
MICRONEEDLING WITH EXOSOMES
Microneedling the scalp with exosome application is a cutting-edge regenerative treatment that uses extracellular vesicles (exosomes) to “reprogram” hair follicles at a cellular level. This combination therapy is specifically designed to transition dormant follicles into the active growth (anagen) phase, increasing hair density and thickness. Results show a significant decrease in daily hair shedding within the first few weeks.
