PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) hair restoration uses your body’s own healing biology to wake up follicles that have gone dormant, not dead. At CareMed Wellness Clinic in Edmonton, PRP is delivered by our clinical team using your own blood — nothing synthetic, no downtime, no one has to know.
Why Men Are Turning to PRP Before It’s “Too Late”
Male pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) is progressive — it doesn’t pause and wait for you to be ready. The earlier PRP is started, the more follicles are still “alive” to respond. Guys who wait until the crown is fully bald have far fewer options; guys who start at the first signs of thinning have the best shot at holding — and regrowing — density.
PRP is discreet, requires zero time off work, and doesn’t carry the sexual side effects some men experience with oral hair loss medications.
How PRP Hair Restoration Actually Works
- 1. Blood draw — A small sample, similar to routine bloodwork.
- 2. Centrifuge processing — Your blood is spun to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, separating out the plasma that does the regenerative work.
- 3. Scalp injection — The concentrated PRP is injected into thinning areas, stimulating blood flow to the follicle, extending the hair’s growth phase, and improving thickness over time.
Because it’s autologous (from your own body), there’s no risk of allergic reaction and virtually no downtime — you can go back to your day immediately.
What Results Look Like — and When
PRP is not an overnight fix, and we won’t tell you it is. Most clients notice:
- Reduced shedding within 4–6 weeks
- Visible improvement in thickness and density by 3–4 months
- Best results with a series of sessions (typically spaced 4–6 weeks apart), followed by periodic maintenance
PRP works best on active, early-to-moderate thinning — receding hairlines, crown thinning, diffuse loss. It’s less effective on scalp areas that have been fully bald for years, since those follicles are no longer active.
PRP vs. Other Hair Loss Options
| Option | Downtime | Uses Your Own Biology | Ongoing Commitment |
|---|---|---|---|
| PRP | None | Yes | Series + maintenance |
| Hair transplant (FUE) | Days–weeks | Partially | One-time (surgical) |
| Oral medication | None | No | Daily, indefinite |
| Topical treatments | None | No | Daily, indefinite |
Many clients combine PRP with medical-grade topical treatments for a layered approach — we’ll build a plan around your goals and timeline, not a one-size-fits-all package.
