Non-Surgical Hair Restoration
Cleveland | Columbus | Pittsburgh | Detroit | Cincinnati
At Wick Facial Plastics in Cleveland, Dr. Elizabeth Wick and her team offer the most advanced non-surgical hair restoration therapies designed to stimulate regrowth, slow shedding, and improve scalp health. Whether you're noticing the earliest signs of thinning or looking to boost surgical results, our regenerative treatments blend science with artistry to restore confidence—one follicle at a time.
We offer a range of cutting-edge, minimally invasive hair restoration treatments for men and women, including:
Platelet-Rich Therapies (PRP vs. PRFM)
Both treatments harness your body’s natural healing powers:
- PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) involves isolating and re-injecting your body’s growth-factor-rich plasma to stimulate hair follicles and increase blood flow to the scalp.
- PRFM (Platelet-Rich Fibrin Matrix) is a newer, more stable formulation that allows for slower, sustained release of growth factors for longer-lasting stimulation.
Dr. Wick will help determine which is best based on your degree of hair loss and treatment goals.
Topical Exosomes
Exosomes are regenerative cell-derived particles that signal follicles to activate growth, reduce inflammation, and increase hair density. We apply them directly to the scalp post-microneedling for maximum absorption and effect.
Nanofat Transfer
Nanofat—micro-filtered fat harvested from your own body—is rich in stem cells and regenerative cytokines. When injected into areas of thinning, it supports follicular rejuvenation and scalp vitality.
Emerging & Experimental Treatments
- Scalp Microneedling improves scalp vascularity and absorption of topicals like exosomes or PRP.
- Botox for Scalp (Botox Capitis) is an emerging treatment theorized to relax tension around follicles and improve circulation—currently offered selectively in research-supported cases.
- Injected Finasteride (Microdose Delivery) is a highly targeted method to inhibit DHT (a hormone linked to hair loss) without the systemic side effects of oral finasteride. Small doses are injected directly into thinning areas of the scalp. While still considered investigational, early studies suggest it may slow shedding with minimal hormonal impact.

Results
Recovery & Results
Initial Recovery
Mild redness, swelling, or scalp sensitivity may occur for 24–72 hours. Most patients return to normal activity the same day
Side Effects
Hair shedding may temporarily increase before improvement (a normal sign of transition to a new growth cycle)
Results
Optimal results typically appear after a series of 3–6 treatments over several months
Common Questions
How many treatments will I need?
Most patients benefit from a series of 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, with maintenance every 6–12 months.
Is PRFM better than PRP?
PRFM may offer longer-lasting benefits due to its sustained-release matrix, but the best choice depends on your goals and scalp condition.
Who is a good candidate for exosomes or nanofat?
Patients in early-to-moderate stages of thinning or those seeking regenerative maintenance after surgery often benefit most. Nanofat may be best for diffuse thinning or inflammatory scalp issues.
Can I combine treatments?
Yes. At Wick Facial Plastics, we often layer therapies like microneedling, PRP, and exosomes for synergistic results.
Is it safe?
All treatments are performed by medically trained staff using FDA-cleared techniques and equipment. Autologous options (like PRP and nanofat) are derived from your own body, minimizing risk.
