PRP Hair Restoration

Your own plasma for thinning hair

Platelet-rich plasma from your own blood is placed into the scalp to help support weakened follicles, slow shedding and improve density over time. For scalp and beard, men and women.

The Treatment

Fuller hair, from within.

A small blood sample is drawn, much like a routine lab test, and processed in clinic with Clarion WorldPRP technology. This concentrates the platelets and growth factors your body already uses to repair tissue.

The PRP is placed evenly across the thinning areas with the Beauty Booster by Clarion, using gentle suction and fine needles. It supports weakened follicles and the natural growth cycle on the scalp, and can also be used for a patchy or thin beard. PRP works on follicles that are still active. It can help slow shedding and thicken existing hair, but it cannot regrow hair in fully bald areas.

Why PRP

The layer we use for your scalp

PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. It is the layer with a high concentration of platelets, which carry growth factors your body uses to repair and renew tissue.

Placed into the scalp or beard, these growth factors may help support weakened hair follicles. It works best for early to moderate thinning.

  • Made from your own blood
  • Usually done as a series for best results
Common Concerns

Where it can help

Thinning

Gradual loss of density across the top of the scalp.

  • Widening part common in women
  • Crown thinning
  • Overall density

Hairline

Early pattern hair loss in men and women.

  • Receding hairline temples
  • Androgenetic alopecia early to moderate
  • Patchy or thin beard

Shedding

Support for the growth cycle after hormonal change or stress.

  • Increased shedding
  • Postpartum changes
  • Scalp health follicle support

Hair loss can have medical causes such as low iron or thyroid changes, so we may suggest blood work with your doctor first. For skin, under eyes and natural volume, see PRP & PRF.

Your Appointment

What to expect

Consultation

We assess your scalp, hair history and health, and build a plan for your concerns. Consent is reviewed before treatment, and all treatments are performed by licensed nurses under medical directive.

Blood Draw

A small sample is drawn, similar to a routine blood test, and processed in clinic with Clarion WorldPRP.

Scalp Treatment

Numbing is applied for comfort, then PRP is placed across the thinning areas with the Beauty Booster by Clarion. Most clients feel brief pinches and pressure.

Results

Many clients notice less shedding first. Density and thickness build over 3 to 6 months, with maintenance every 4 to 6 months to hold results.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does it hurt?
Numbing is applied before treatment. The blood draw feels like a routine lab test, and most clients describe the scalp injections as brief pinches that are well tolerated.
When will I see results?
Hair grows in cycles, so results take time. Many clients notice less shedding within the first few months, with fuller density showing at about 3 to 6 months.
Are the results permanent?
No. PRP supports the hair you have, but it does not stop the underlying cause of hair loss. Maintenance sessions every 4 to 6 months help hold your results.
Does it work for women?
Yes. PRP is used for both men and women, and is often chosen for a widening part, crown thinning and postpartum changes.
Can I use it with other hair loss treatments?
Yes. PRP is often combined with treatments your doctor recommends, such as minoxidil. Let us know what you use at your consultation.
