HAIR REGENERATION WITH PRP/PRF
Why Choose PRP/PRF for Hair Regrowth?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) or PRF (second generation of PRP) offers a cutting-edge, non-surgical solution to stimulate dormant hair follicles and encourage thicker, healthier hair. Ideal for early-stage hair thinning, receding hairlines, or diffuse thinning, this minimally invasive treatment harnesses your body’s own growth factors to promote natural hair regeneration. With virtually no downtime, Vancouver clients can revitalize their scalps during a quick clinic visit and enjoy gradual, sustainable hair improvement.
How is PRP/PRF Regeneration Done?
Step 1: PRP/PRF Preparation
A small sample of your blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to concentrate your own platelets and growth factors into PRP or PRF.
Step 2: PRP/PRF Injection & Application
The PRP is injected subdermally in the target areas. Platelets release growth factors that:
- Stimulate dormant hair follicles
- Increase blood flow and nutrient delivery
- Strengthen hair shaft and reduce shedding
3-4 treatments scheduled every 4-6 weeks is typically required. Maintenance sessions every 6–12 months help sustain results.
