PRP Injections
in Richmond Hill

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is a natural regenerative treatment that uses a patient’s own blood to promote healing, collagen production, and hair growth. The platelet-rich plasma is extracted, processed, and injected into the scalp for hair restoration or into the skin for rejuvenation.

PRP promotes collagen and elastin production, reducing fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and dull skin. It enhances skin texture and elasticity, making the skin look more youthful and radiant.PRP promotes collagen and elastin production, reducing fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and dull skin.

Most patients need 3 to 6 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments every 6 to 12 months help sustain results.

PRP injections cause mild discomfort, but a numbing cream is applied to minimize pain. Most patients tolerate the procedure well.

For hair restoration, results are noticeable after 3 to 6 months, with continued improvement over time. For skin rejuvenation, a glow and texture improvement can be seen within a few weeks, with full benefits developing over several months.

PRP is safe and natural since it comes from your own blood. Mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site may occur but usually resolves within a few days.

PRP therapy begins with drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood, which is then placed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other components. The concentrated PRP, rich in growth factors, is then carefully injected into the targeted areas of the skin or scalp to stimulate collagen production and hair follicle regeneration. The procedure is minimally invasive, typically taking about 30 to 45 minutes, with little to no downtime. A numbing cream may be applied beforehand to reduce discomfort, and patients can usually resume their daily activities shortly after treatment.

After PRP therapy, avoid touching or washing the treated area for at least 6–12 hours. Refrain from using harsh skincare products like exfoliants, retinoids, or acids for 48 hours. Limit sun exposure and always apply sunscreen to prevent irritation. Avoid intense exercise, saunas, or hot showers for 24–48 hours to minimize swelling. Smoking and alcohol should be avoided as they can slow healing and affect results. Mild redness, swelling, or tenderness is normal and usually subsides within a few days. Staying hydrated and maintaining a healthy diet can enhance the benefits of PRP. Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results, so follow your practitioner’s recommendations for the best outcome.
