“Victories are won usually through a great deal of patience, planning and perseverance, and rarely accomplished at a single stroke.”
(Shoghi Effendi, Lights of Guidance, p. 598)
For almost 9 years, I did everything to treat my daughter’s alopecia areata, an autoimmune condition that causes hair loss. Some treatments worked a little and others not at all. She tried all and every natural therapy, addressing emotions, stress, toxicities, hormone imbalances, food allergies and intolerances, nutritional deficiencies, gut inflammation and dysbiosis, and more. Sadly, nothing worked. I was frustrated and so was she as these treatments had worked with many of my patients …but being the powerhouse she is, she never gave up. She continued to persevere with a smile on her face and an inspiring radiance.
After several years, she finally agreed to have me treat her with her own PRP (platelet-rich plasma). And four months later, her hair started growing back and by 8 months after the treatment, she had hair as thick as you see in the picture. Now, after nine long years of having little hair, she has gorgeous black thick curls.
Through all of this she taught me and those around her patience, strength, perseverance, detachment and genuine inner joyfulness and faith. She has brought hope to so many who suffer with this devastating condition.
PRP is made from growth factors and cells derived from your own blood, then reinjected into the scalp. The treatment takes only 5-10 minutes and is generally very well tolerated. At Holistique, IV nutrients and ozone therapy are sometimes used alongside to support healing and healthy hair regrowth.
PRP is being explored as a supportive option for several different types of hair loss, with results that vary from person to person.
For a consultation with Dr. Darvish to see if this is the treatment for you, please call Holistique (425) 451-0404.

HRT Not Working? How Senescent Cells and TPE Explain Ongoing Symptoms
You started hormone therapy expecting to feel like yourself again. Your labs may even look good now. But the fatigue, brain fog, or joint pain never fully lifted. If this sounds familiar, the missing piece may not be your hormone levels at all. It may be cellular senescence.

Natural Senolytics: Can Food-Derived Compounds Like EGCG and Curcumin Clear Senescent Cells?
Senolytics are compounds that selectively clear senescent cells, the aged, inflammatory cells that drive much of what we call aging. A growing body of research points to natural compounds, including fisetin, quercetin, EGCG, and curcumin, as having real senolytic activity.

Senescent Cells and Aging: Can Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE) Help Clear Them?
Aging is not just the passage of time. At the cellular level, it is largely driven by the accumulation of senescent cells, cells that have stopped dividing but refuse to die. Understanding how a tool like therapeutic plasma exchange may help clear their damage has become one of the more exciting frontiers in longevity medicine.
