PRP vs TED Hair Restoration: What’s the Difference?

Written By Kenia Cabahug

Hair restoration treatments have advanced significantly in recent years, with PRP and TED emerging as two of the most effective non-surgical options. At OSVI Dermatology & Surgery Institute, we guide patients in Covina, Manhattan Beach, Torrance, and Tustin toward the best solution for their needs.

What Is PRP

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy uses your body’s own growth factors to stimulate hair follicles. A small amount of blood is drawn, processed, and injected into the scalp.

Benefits of PRP

  • Stimulates natural hair growth

  • Improves hair thickness

  • Uses your body’s own healing properties

What Is TED Hair Restoration

TED (TransEpidermal Delivery) is a needle-free treatment that delivers growth factors directly into the scalp using advanced technology.

Benefits of TED

  • Non-invasive and painless

  • No downtime

  • Effective for early to moderate hair loss

Key Differences

  • PRP involves injections

  • TED is completely non-invasive

Both treatments are effective, but the right choice depends on your comfort level and the severity of your hair loss.
