More Blood. More Growth Factors. Better Results.
FullDose PRP™: 120cc Protocol with Full Adjunct Therapy
- 120cc blood draw — 4 to 6x the industry standard of 20–30cc
- FullDose PRP™ protocol — highest-volume approach in Las Vegas
- PRP since 1998 — cardiothoracic surgery to aesthetics
- CBS & ABC News featured PRP expert — Thomas Pulice, PA-C
PRP is injected directly into the scalp at follicle level. Growth factors — PDGF, VEGF, EGF, IGF — reactivate dormant follicles, extend the active growth phase, improve scalp blood supply, and reduce inflammation driving miniaturization. No topical treatment reaches the follicle at this depth. But concentration is not equal across providers: a 20cc draw produces a modest signal; a 120cc draw produces a significantly richer preparation. When comparing providers, ask one question: how much blood do they draw?
| Component | Detail |
|---|---|
| FullDose PRP™ Injection | 120cc blood draw centrifuged to high platelet concentration. 80–100 precisely targeted scalp injections covering the full treatment zone. |
| Ring Block Anesthesia | Full scalp ring block: topical numbing cream + 2% lidocaine injected around the scalp perimeter. Creates complete global anesthesia across all injection sites and subsequent microneedling. Most clinics use topical numbing only — this is a significant comfort differentiator. |
| LaserCap® LLLT | FDA-cleared low-level laser therapy device with 304 diodes at 650nm — the clinically validated wavelength for follicle stimulation. Used in-office and prescribed for daily home use between sessions to sustain the biological environment PRP creates. |
| Scalp Microneedling | Creates micro-channels that enhance PRP absorption and activate the scalp's own healing response at the dermal layer. Performed immediately after PRP injection. |
| Formula 82M Topical | Compounded prescription minoxidil with a propylene glycol-free base — eliminates the scalp irritation and greasiness that causes most patients to abandon standard over-the-counter minoxidil. Prescribed for daily home use between sessions. |
| Oral Nutraceuticals | Targeted supplement protocols addressing the nutritional deficiencies most commonly associated with hair thinning and follicle decline. Includes a money-back guarantee. |
Initial series: 3 sessions spaced 6-8 weeks apart. Maintenance and adjunct therapies ongoing based on individual response.
PRP works by stimulating follicles that are weakened or dormant but still viable. It is effective for both men and women, and the same FullDose PRP™ protocol is used for both — customized to each patient’s loss pattern and scalp condition.
Best candidates include:
• Men with early to moderate androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness)
• Women with diffuse thinning or female pattern hair loss
• Patients experiencing hair loss from hormonal changes, stress, medications, or
nutritional deficiency
• Hair loss associated with GLP-1 medications like Ozempic® (semaglutide) — PRP effectively addresses this telogen effluvium pattern
• Postpartum hair shedding
• Patients who want to slow or halt ongoing hair loss before it progresses
• Post-hair transplant patients wanting to optimize graft survival and density
• High-risk individuals seeking preventative treatment before significant loss occurs
Areas of the scalp where follicles are completely gone — smooth, slick bald patches with no fine hair visible — are unlikely to respond to PRP. Thomas will assess scalp health, follicle viability, and hair loss pattern at your free consultation and give you an honest assessment of what PRP can realistically achieve. If it isn’t the right approach for your case, he will tell you.
Three things separate Las Vegas Aesthetics from every other PRP hair restoration provider in Las Vegas:
1. The Highest-Volume PRP Draw in Las Vegas
At 120cc, FullDose PRP™ draws 4–6x the blood volume of the standard clinical protocol. This produces a substantially higher platelet yield and a more concentrated, more potent PRP preparation. More concentration. More growth factors. A stronger signal to the follicle.
2. Full Scalp Ring Block — Actual Comfort, Not Just Topical Cream
80–100 scalp injections under topical numbing alone is uncomfortable. Thomas uses a full ring block: topical numbing followed by 2% lidocaine administered around the scalp perimeter, creating complete global anesthesia. The same approach used in surgical and dental
procedures. Most patients feel very little during the injection phase or microneedling.
3. 25+ Years of Platelet Biology — Including CBS and ABC News
Thomas Pulice, PA-C has been working with platelets since 1998 in cardiothoracic surgery — over 5,000 cases before PRP ever entered the aesthetics market. That depth of clinical understanding is recognized nationally: CBS News and ABC News have featured Thomas as a guest expert on PRP and Vampire procedures. When you sit down with Thomas for a consultation, you’re talking to someone who has understood platelet biology at a clinical level for over two decades.
- 120cc blood draw — FullDose PRP™ is believed to be the highest-volume PRP protocol in Las Vegas
- 4–6x the platelet concentration of the 20–30cc industry standard

Below are the most common questions clients ask before their PRP Restoration Treatment appointment. Every treatment is customized for natural, comfortable results, so you always know what to expect.
What is PRP hair restoration and how does it work?
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) hair restoration uses concentrated growth factors from your own blood to stimulate dormant hair follicles. A blood draw is centrifuged to concentrate platelets, which are then injected directly into the scalp. Growth factors including PDGF, VEGF, EGF, and IGF signal
follicles to reactivate, extend their active growth phase, improve scalp blood supply, and reduce the inflammation that drives miniaturization. Las Vegas Aesthetics uses a 120cc draw under the FullDose PRP™ protocol — 4–6x the 20–30cc standard — producing significantly higher platelet concentration and growth factor delivery.
Is PRP still the best non-surgical hair restoration treatment?
Yes. Despite newer technologies, PRP remains the most clinically validated and extensively studied non-surgical hair restoration option. Hundreds of peer-reviewed studies support its effectiveness for androgenetic alopecia in both men and women. No other non-surgical treatment delivers biological growth factors directly to the follicle at therapeutic concentration. At Las Vegas Aesthetics, PRP is the foundation of a full protocol that also includes LaserCap® LLLT, scalp microneedling, Formula 82M compounded minoxidil, and targeted nutraceuticals.
Why does blood draw volume matter for PRP?
PRP concentration is directly tied to draw volume — more blood means more platelets in the final preparation, and more platelets means a higher density of growth factors at the follicle. Most providers draw 20–30cc. Las Vegas Aesthetics draws 120cc under FullDose PRP™, producing substantially higher concentration and a meaningfully stronger biological signal. When comparing PRP providers, ask how much blood they draw. The answer tells you a lot about what you’ll receive.
Is PRP hair restoration painful?
At most clinics, topical numbing is the only anesthetic — which has limited penetration into the scalp and provides minimal comfort for 80–100 injection sites. Las Vegas Aesthetics uses a full scalp ring block: topical numbing followed by 2% lidocaine injected around the scalp perimeter,
creating complete global anesthesia across all injection sites and subsequent microneedling. Most patients feel very little during the procedure. Post-treatment, the scalp may be mildly tender for 24–48 hours. No significant downtime.
How many sessions do I need?
The standard initial series is 3 sessions spaced 6–8 weeks apart, aligned to the hair growth cycle so each session builds on the follicle stimulation from the previous one. After the initial series, maintenance is typically once or twice per year based on individual response. Adjunct therapies — LaserCap®, Formula 82M, nutraceuticals — are used continuously between sessions to sustain results.
Does PRP work for Ozempic® hair loss?
Yes. Hair loss associated with GLP-1 medications like Ozempic® is typically telogen effluvium — stress-related shedding triggered by rapid weight loss or metabolic change. PRP hair restoration is an effective treatment for telogen effluvium, reactivating follicles that have prematurely entered the shedding phase. Las Vegas Aesthetics treats Ozempic-related hair loss as part of the comprehensive FullDose PRP™ protocol.
Does PRP work for both men and women?
Yes. Las Vegas Aesthetics treats both male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia) and female diffuse thinning using the same 120cc FullDose PRP™ protocol, customized to each patient’s loss pattern and scalp condition. It is also effective for postpartum hair shedding, hormonal hair loss, stress-related shedding, and medication-related hair loss in both sexes.
Who is not a good candidate for PRP hair restoration?
PRP works by stimulating follicles that are weakened or dormant but still viable. Areas where follicles are completely gone — smooth, slick bald patches with no fine hair — are unlikely to respond. Thomas evaluates hair loss pattern, scalp health, and follicle viability at consultation and will tell you honestly if PRP is unlikely to produce meaningful results for your case.
How does PRP compare to hair transplant surgery?
Hair transplant surgery (FUE or FUT) physically relocates follicles from a donor area and is the most permanent solution for significant hair loss. PRP stimulates existing follicles — making it best suited for early-to-moderate loss where viable follicles are still present. The two approaches are complementary: PRP is often used after transplant surgery to improve graft survival and optimize density. For patients not ready for surgery, PRP is the strongest non-surgical option available.
