At ProDerm Skin & Surgery, we offer platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy as a natural, non-surgical option for rejuvenating skin and restoring hair health. PRP uses the healing properties of your own blood to stimulate collagen production, support tissue regeneration, and encourage hair growth. Because it relies on the body’s natural repair process, PRP is a versatile treatment for both skin and scalp concerns.
Treatment Overview
Platelet-Rich Plasma therapy — known as PRP — uses your own biology to drive renewal in the skin and, when applied to the scalp, to stimulate hair growth. A small blood draw is processed to concentrate the healing platelets and growth factors naturally present in your blood, and that concentrated plasma is then delivered into targeted areas of the face or scalp. Because the treatment uses your own material, the risk of allergic reaction is minimal. PRP works especially well when combined with microneedling, since open micro-channels allow the growth factors to penetrate more deeply and effectively. Most treatment plans call for three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart, with results continuing to improve over the months that follow as the regenerative process unfolds gradually beneath the surface.
