Regrow Thicker, Healthier Hair—Naturally
At Bonato MD Aesthetics, hair restoration starts with a diagnosis, not a guess. Dr. Alex Bonato, MD uses a quantified scalp analysis to see exactly what’s happening at your follicles, then builds a personalized plan that can combine multiple regenerative and delivery therapies — from gentle, needle-free options to physician-managed medical treatment. It’s a full, physician-led program, not a single treatment off a menu.
Every treatment at Bonato MD Aesthetics is performed by Dr. Alex Bonato, MD — a board-certified physician serving Medford and Southern Oregon. Meet Dr. Bonato →
How It Works: Measure, Treat, Track
Measure — Every plan begins with a HairMetrix digital scalp analysis by Canfield Scientific: a magnified, quantified map of your scalp that measures hair density, follicle counts, and shaft thickness. Instead of guessing, Dr. Bonato sees exactly what’s happening at the follicle and builds your plan around it.
Treat — No single tool addresses every driver of hair loss. Based on your analysis, Dr. Bonato combines regenerative and delivery therapies into a plan matched to your follicles — from gentle, needle-free options to more intensive multi-modality plans.
Track — We re-image your scalp over time so your progress is measured, not guessed at — and your plan is adjusted based on how you actually respond.
The Regenerative Core
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Hair Restoration
PRP uses the growth factors in your own blood to support the hair follicle. We draw a small sample, concentrate the platelets on-site, and deliver them precisely to the scalp, where their growth factors support the follicle and help encourage resting hairs toward their growth phase. PRP has a growing body of clinical evidence for pattern hair loss — and because we measure your scalp first, we can track how you respond rather than hoping for the best.
Stimulates natural hair growth and strengthens existing follicles
Improves hair thickness, texture, and scalp health
Minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure
Safe for both men and women
No downtime — resume normal activities immediately
Uses your body’s own platelets for natural results
Over a series of treatments, patients notice visible improvements in fullness, density, and overall scalp vitality — helping restore both confidence and self-image.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
PRP Hair Restoration is best suited for those experiencing:
Thinning or shedding hair
Receding hairlines or diffuse thinning
Early to moderate stages of hair loss
Weak or miniaturized hair follicles
It’s important to note that PRP requires active hair follicles to be effective. It will not regrow hair in completely bald areas, but it can significantly improve density in thinning regions.
Microneedling
Microneedling uses controlled micro-stimulation of the scalp to activate the skin’s own repair signaling. It’s a recognized hair-restoration treatment in its own right, and when paired with regenerative treatments like PRP, it helps carry them deeper into the follicular environment — combining stimulation and delivery in one step.
Exosome Therapy (Topical)
Exosomes are tiny cell-signaling vesicles that carry growth factors and peptides. Applied topically to the scalp — often immediately after a treatment that has gently opened the skin’s surface — they’re used to support the follicular environment as part of a broader regenerative plan. Exosome therapy is an emerging area, which is exactly why we use it alongside measurement and physician oversight rather than as a standalone promise.
The Delivery Advantage
Regenerative treatments only help if they actually reach the follicle — and the scalp is built to keep large molecules out. These technologies open a temporary path so your treatment gets where it needs to go, without needles or downtime. This combination is what sets the program apart.
Thulium Laser (Non-Ablative)
A non-ablative thulium laser is used to gently warm the scalp and create microscopic channels in its surface. This does two things at once: the controlled warmth prompts the scalp’s natural repair response, and the microchannels help regenerative treatments penetrate more deeply than they could on their own — all with minimal downtime.
Plasma
Plasma energy is applied to the scalp with a precise, gentle technique that works in three ways: it helps clear bacteria and fungus from the scalp surface that can contribute to an unhealthy follicular environment, it stimulates local blood supply, and it opens fine micro-pathways so regenerative treatments can reach the follicle — all without the bulk heating of more aggressive devices.
Ultrasound Delivery
Ultrasound-based delivery uses gentle acoustic energy to help drive regenerative treatments through the scalp’s surface barrier and toward the follicle. It’s completely non-invasive, and it doubles as a soothing finish to treatment — warmth and light micro-vibration that also support local blood flow.
Physician-Led Medicine
Medical Management
Because hair loss can have medical drivers, some plans include evidence-based prescription therapies, evaluated and managed by a physician. As a board-certified internal medicine physician, Dr. Bonato can assess the medical factors behind hair loss and, where appropriate, order laboratory work and prescribe — an option most aesthetic providers simply can’t offer. It’s what makes this a medical hair restoration program, not a spa menu.
Take-Home Follicle Support
Between visits, some plans include a take-home follicle support serum to nourish the scalp and support your hair as part of your overall program.
Why This Program Is Different
Bonato MD Aesthetics combines diagnostic scalp analysis with multiple regenerative therapies under direct physician oversight. Where most local options offer a single treatment — PRP injections — we start with measurement, match therapy to what your analysis shows, and track your response with repeat imaging. Every plan is built and overseen by a board-certified physician who can also address the medical drivers of hair loss. That’s the difference between a menu and a medical program.

"I have dealt with TMJ pain for most of my adult life, and heard about Botox injections for my masseters as a treatment option. Dr. Bonato did a thorough consultation with me to make sure I was a candidate and was able to schedule me pretty quickly. It has made all the difference in the world! Dr. Bonato also did a consultation for hair restoration while I was there, and we will be starting my treatment protocol next month. I’m looking forward to those results and those luscious locks!"

From the moment we started, Alex was incredibly thorough—he took the time to walk me through each step of the process and crafted a treatment plan tailored specifically to my needs. He answered every question I had with patience and clarity, making sure I felt informed and comfortable throughout. On top of that, he was genuinely personable and easy to talk to, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and professional. Highly recommend!"

FAQs
-
Most patients notice decreased shedding after the first few sessions and visible new growth within 3–6 months as follicles strengthen and new hairs emerge. Results continue to improve over time with maintenance.
-
Discomfort is minimal. A topical numbing agent is applied to the scalp before treatment, and injections are performed using fine needles. You may feel mild pressure or warmth during the procedure, but most patients tolerate it well.
-
We recommend a series of 3–4 initial treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance sessions every 6–12 months to sustain results.
-
PRP works by rejuvenating existing hair follicles, so it’s not effective in areas of complete baldness. It’s best suited for individuals with thinning hair who still have active follicles.
-
Most of these treatments are designed to be low-downtime, and several options are entirely needle-free. The right combination for you — and what to expect afterward — depends on your plan, which Dr. Bonato will walk through at your consultation.
-
PRP has a growing body of clinical evidence for pattern hair loss, and it’s one of the most established regenerative options we offer. That said, hair-loss results vary from person to person — which is exactly why we measure your scalp with HairMetrix before we start and track your response with repeat imaging, so your plan is guided by your own data rather than averages. Dr. Bonato will discuss what’s realistic for your situation at your consultation.
-
Your consultation begins with a HairMetrix digital scalp analysis — a magnified, quantified look at your hair density, follicle counts, and shaft thickness. Dr. Bonato reviews your history and any medical factors that may be contributing, then builds a personalized plan matched to what your scalp actually shows. Because hair loss can have medical drivers, this may include laboratory evaluation where appropriate.
-
Because every plan is built around your individual scalp analysis and goals, pricing is personalized rather than one-size-fits-all. We’ll review your options and costs at your consultation, and flexible financing is available through Cherry.
-
Yes. Hair thinning affects women as well as men, and female-pattern hair loss often has its own contributing factors. Dr. Bonato evaluates each patient individually — starting with measurement and, where appropriate, medical assessment — to determine whether and how you’re a candidate.

Every hair restoration plan is developed and overseen by Dr. Alex Bonato, MD, a board-certified internal medicine physician. This is physician-led medical hair restoration — not a spa menu.
