PRP Treatment
Rejuvenate your skin and restore hair naturally with PRP therapy at Skin Serene Med Spa in Edmonton. This advanced, regenerative treatment uses your body’s own platelets to stimulate collagen, improve skin texture, and promote hair growth — all without surgery or synthetic products.
How PRP Works
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is a natural treatment that uses your body’s own healing properties to regenerate skin and support hair growth.
A small amount of blood is drawn and processed in a centrifuge to isolate platelet-rich plasma, which is rich in growth factors. This PRP is then injected or applied with microneedling to the treatment area.
These growth factors stimulate collagen production, cell renewal, and tissue repair, making PRP an effective option for both skin rejuvenation and hair restoration.

What to Expect & Results Timeline
PRP treatments begin with a quick blood draw, followed by processing to isolate the platelet-rich plasma. For facial treatments, PRP is typically combined with microneedling or injected into targeted areas, while for hair restoration it is injected directly into the scalp. Appointments usually take 45 to 75 minutes, with minimal downtime. You may experience mild redness, sensitivity, or swelling, but most clients return to normal activities within 24 to 48 hours.
Results develop gradually as PRP stimulates natural regeneration. For skin, improvements in tone and texture can appear within 3 to 4 weeks, with continued enhancement over time. For hair, growth and thickening typically begin after 2 to 3 sessions, with best results after a full series. Most clients benefit from 3 to 4 treatments spaced several weeks apart, followed by maintenance as needed.
