Thinning hair and reduced density develop gradually at the follicle and scalp level. SOM Hair Restoration works at that level — combining Blue Light for scalp health, SylfirmX RF microneedling for follicle activation, in-office exosomes, PRP, and Plated hair serum, in a staged series.
A dermatologist-trained SOM provider evaluates the cause of your thinning and builds the right plan, staged over sessions for natural, gradual improvement. It works best for early to moderate thinning, not fully bald areas.
The right combination, not a single fix.
Optimizes scalp health for follicles.
Activates follicles and scalp circulation.

SOM Hair Restoration is a broader assessment and combination plan, while the PRP Hair page focuses specifically on scalp PRP. The existing plan lists several possible steps, but the diagnosis and evidence for each option should determine what is recommended; exosome products have no FDA-approved therapeutic indication.
SOM Hair Restoration is non-surgical and does not move follicles like a hair transplant. It may support selected existing follicles, but bald areas without viable follicles or scarring hair loss need a different discussion.
Hair-restoration visits depend on the diagnosis and procedures selected rather than a guaranteed four-session course. An initial schedule should include comparable photographs and a review point to decide whether continuing treatment is worthwhile.
PRP scalp injections or RF procedures can cause tenderness, redness, swelling, or pinpoint bleeding, with recovery depending on the protocol. Ask about procedure-specific risks and aftercare, including RF-related burns or unwanted tissue effects if RF is proposed.
Hair-density changes are assessed over months, and continued treatment may be needed for an ongoing cause of thinning. Results vary; a plan should explain realistic goals, response monitoring, and what to do if shedding persists.
SOM Hair Restoration pricing depends on the assessment, selected procedures, number of visits, and home-care recommendations. Request an itemized plan so you can distinguish PRP costs from optional devices, products, and maintenance.
