What is the scope of practice for physicians performing hair restoration procedures?

As licensed physicians (MD/DO), you have the broadest scope of practice in regenerative medicine. You can independently perform all hair restoration procedures, prescribe medications, and supervise other medical professionals in most states.

Do I need supervision to perform PRP for hair loss as a physician?

No. Physicians (MD/DO) have full independent practice authority and can perform PRP injections and other hair restoration treatments without supervision. You can also supervise other providers such as NPs, PAs, and RNs who perform treatments under your medical direction.

How much can physicians earn from hair loss treatments?

Physicians typically charge $800-2,500 per PRP hair restoration session. With patients requiring 3-4 initial treatments and maintenance sessions, annual patient value ranges from $3,000-10,000+. Many physicians add $150,000+ annually by incorporating hair restoration services.
