Hair Restoration

Restore fuller, healthier hair through regenerative medicine, PRP therapy, and a functional approach that treats the root cause of hair loss, not just the symptom.

Understanding Hair Loss

Why a functional approach to hair restoration works

Hair loss affects tens of millions of men and women and carries a psychological impact that extends well beyond cosmetics. For many patients, thinning hair erodes confidence, affects professional identity, and serves as a visible marker of changes they feel powerless to control. The conventional approach, prescribing minoxidil or finasteride and hoping for the best, fails to address the underlying physiology driving the loss.
At Allure MD, we treat hair loss as a medical condition with identifiable, addressable causes. Our functional medicine workup evaluates the hormonal, nutritional, inflammatory, and autoimmune pathways that most commonly drive hair thinning, allowing us to build a treatment plan that addresses both the symptom and its source.
We combine this diagnostic depth with advanced regenerative therapies, including PRP, exosome-based treatments, and scalp micropigmentation, to produce results that are both clinically meaningful and visually impactful. By treating the root cause while simultaneously stimulating regrowth, we achieve outcomes that neither approach produces alone.
For appropriate candidates, we also integrate the copper peptide GHK-Cu, which has demonstrated significant hair growth stimulation in published research by promoting follicular proliferation and extending the anagen growth phase. Learn more about our peptide protocols at NewportBeachPeptides.com.

Treatment Options

A comprehensive approach to hair restoration

PRP Hair Therapy

Platelet-rich plasma therapy concentrates the growth factors found naturally in your own blood and delivers them directly to the scalp, where they stimulate dormant hair follicles, increase local blood supply, and promote the anagen (active growth) phase of the hair cycle. We draw a small blood sample, process it in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich fraction, and inject it into areas of thinning using a precise micro-needling technique. Most patients undergo a series of three to six treatments spaced four to six weeks apart, with maintenance sessions every six to twelve months.

  • Autologous concentrated growth factor delivery
  • Micro-needling injection technique for optimal distribution
  • Anagen phase stimulation and follicle reactivation
  • Series of 3-6 treatments at 4-6 week intervals
  • Maintenance protocols for sustained results

Regenerative Cell Therapy

Regenerative cell therapy represents the next generation of hair restoration science. We use stem cell-derived growth factors and exosome-based formulations to deliver concentrated signaling molecules directly to the scalp. These biologics promote follicular neogenesis, the formation of new hair follicle structures, while repairing damaged tissue and reducing the chronic inflammation that often accompanies pattern hair loss. When combined with PRP, regenerative therapy produces a synergistic response that exceeds what either treatment achieves alone.

  • Stem cell-derived growth factor applications
  • Exosome-based follicle regeneration protocols
  • Tissue repair and anti-inflammatory signaling
  • Synergistic combination with PRP therapy
  • Progressive improvement over 6-12 months

Scalp Micropigmentation

For patients seeking immediate visual improvement in hair density, scalp micropigmentation uses precision micro-deposits of medical-grade pigment to replicate the appearance of natural hair follicles at the scalp level. This technique is effective for creating natural-looking hairlines, adding the appearance of density in thinning areas, and camouflaging scars from previous hair transplant procedures. The pigment is custom-matched to your natural hair color and applied in multiple sessions to build realistic depth and dimension.

  • Natural hairline recreation and definition
  • Density enhancement in thinning areas
  • Surgical scar camouflage and concealment
  • Custom pigment color and tone matching
  • Multi-session application for realistic depth

Root Cause Treatment

Hair loss is frequently a symptom of deeper systemic imbalance rather than a purely cosmetic problem. Our functional medicine workup evaluates the internal factors that most commonly drive hair loss: iron and ferritin status, zinc, biotin, and vitamin D levels; thyroid function including TSH, free T3, free T4, and thyroid antibodies; sex hormone panels with attention to DHT, estrogen, and testosterone ratios; and inflammatory markers. We also evaluate the peptide GHK-Cu, a copper peptide available through our peptide program, which has demonstrated significant hair growth stimulation in clinical studies. Addressing these root causes produces more durable results than topical or procedural treatments alone.

  • Comprehensive vitamin and mineral panel (iron, ferritin, zinc, D, biotin)
  • Full thyroid cascade with antibody testing
  • Sex hormone panel with DHT and SHBG analysis
  • GHK-Cu peptide evaluation for follicle stimulation
  • Personalized supplement and dietary protocols
Your Provider

Dr. James Rosing, MD, FACS

Stanford-Trained Surgeon & Functional Medicine

Dr. Rosing takes a comprehensive, functional medicine approach to hair restoration that goes beyond topical treatments and procedures. He evaluates the full range of internal factors — hormonal imbalances, nutritional deficiencies, thyroid dysfunction, inflammatory markers, and metabolic health — to identify why hair loss is occurring and address it at its source.

By combining regenerative treatments such as PRP and exosome therapy with root cause correction, he produces results that are not only visible but sustainable. His patients benefit from a physician who treats hair loss as a medical problem deserving rigorous investigation, not a cosmetic concern to be managed superficially.
