PRP Therapy in CalgaryPlatelet-Rich PlasmaHair & Skin Rejuvenation

PRP treatment for hair restoration and natural skin rejuvenation.

Treatment Overview

What is PRP Therapy?

At our Calgary clinic, PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy uses your own blood's concentrated growth factors to stimulate repair and rejuvenation. A small sample of your blood is drawn, spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma, then carefully injected or microneedled into the treatment area. These powerful growth factors signal your skin or hair follicles to regenerate.

For skin, PRP improves texture, tone, fine lines, and overall glow. For hair, it awakens dormant follicles, thickens existing hair, and reduces shedding. Because it comes from your own body, PRP is extremely safe and natural, with no risk of allergic reaction.

Your Experience

What to Expect

A safe, natural treatment. Your own biology does the work.

01

Blood Draw & PRP Preparation

The appointment begins with a simple blood draw, just like a lab test. Your blood is spun in a centrifuge for approximately 15 minutes to concentrate the platelet-rich plasma while we numb the treatment area.

02

Injections or Microneedling (20–40 Minutes)

Your PRP is precisely injected or applied via microneedling into the scalp or skin. The entire visit lasts approximately 60–75 minutes. You may experience mild redness or sensitivity afterward.

03

Minimal Downtime

Most clients return to normal activities the same day. Mild redness at the treatment site typically resolves within a few hours. A series of 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart is recommended for optimal results.

04

Gradual, Natural Improvement

Skin results appear gradually over 4–8 weeks as new collagen forms. Hair results become visible at 3–6 months, with continued improvement up to 12 months. Maintenance is recommended once or twice a year.

FAQ

PRP Therapy Questions Answered

Most clients see the best results with 3–6 initial sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, followed by annual maintenance.
The blood draw is quick and routine. The injections or microneedling feel like tiny pinches; numbing makes it very comfortable.
Visible thickening and reduced shedding usually appear between 3–6 months in Calgary clients, with continued improvement up to 12 months.
Yes. PRP uses your own blood, so there is little to no risk of allergic reaction or rejection. It is one of the safest regenerative treatments available.
The PRP is prepared the same way, but the application and number of sessions differ. Hair treatments target the scalp to stimulate follicles; facial PRP focuses on skin rejuvenation through microneedling or direct injections.
Yes — and it's actually how we deliver it as standard. Microneedling creates micro-channels that allow the PRP growth factors to penetrate much deeper than surface application alone. The combination produces noticeably superior results for texture, scars, and overall skin quality.
Pricing depends on the area and number of sessions. Skin PRP sessions typically start from $350; hair PRP packages are priced by session count. Personalized pricing is provided during your consultation — no surprises.
