Hair Preservation
PRP Hair Therapy in Vancouver, BC
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy for hair preservation uses a concentrated solution of your own platelets, derived from a small blood draw. This platelet-rich solution contains growth factors that support scalp health and stimulate hair follicles.
Concerns
Treatment Time
30-40 minutes
Downtime
Minimal downtime. Most patients experience mild tenderness or redness that typically resolves within 24–48 hours, and normal activities can be resumed the same day.
How It Works
PRP is injected into targeted areas of the scalp to improve blood flow, stimulate dormant follicles, and strengthen existing hair. Over time, this helps slow hair thinning, reduce shedding, and promote thicker, healthier-looking hair.
Consultation & Planning
Most patients benefit from a series of 3–4 treatments, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance treatments as needed to support long-term results.

What causes of hair loss can PRP treat?
PRP is most effective for androgenetic alopecia, male and female pattern hair loss, which is the most common form of hair thinning. Clinical studies demonstrate a 31% average increase in hair density after 6 months with 70–80% of patients experiencing improvement when treatment follows established protocols. It can also support hair growth following transplants and treat other forms of alopecia. It is less effective for hair loss caused by scarring of the follicle or complete follicle death.
How many sessions will I need?
A common programme is one treatment session each month for three months, followed by a booster session every six months. Results vary based on the degree of hair loss, how long it has been progressing, and individual response to treatment. We give you a personalised plan at consultation rather than a one-size-fits-all schedule.
When will I see results?
The results of PRP treatment are most noticeable after several weeks for joint injections and six months for scalp injections. Most patients begin noticing reduced shedding and improved hair thickness within 3 months, with the most significant improvements in density appearing at 6 months after a full initial course of treatment.
Who is the best candidate for PRP hair treatment?
PRP is most suitable for patients with early to moderate hair thinning who still have active follicles. It may benefit individuals noticing increased shedding, reduced density, or early pattern hair loss.
Why does the quality of my blood matter for PRP results?
Because PRP is entirely derived from your own biology, the treatment is only as powerful as the platelets it contains. Factors like dehydration, alcohol consumption, smoking, nutritional deficiencies and certain medications can all reduce platelet count and growth factor concentration in your blood.
This is why pre-treatment preparation isn't just procedural, it directly affects your results. Patients who arrive well-hydrated, nutritionally supported, and free of anti-inflammatory medications consistently produce higher-quality PRP. We give every patient specific preparation guidelines precisely because what you do before your session shapes what happens during it.
Who is NOT an ideal candidate for PRP hair treatment?
Patients with advanced hair loss or complete follicle loss are unlikely to benefit significantly. PRP is also not appropriate for individuals expecting full hair restoration or immediate results.

Dr. Denton performed blepharoplasty... I was honestly amazed at the results. Not only did it 'literally' open my eyes to just how restricted my vision had been, I feel like it has taken years off me.
Dr. Denton and his entire team were wonderful. Very patient in answering any questions I had... If I ever need to have anything else done - you can bet I will be going back to Dr. Denton and his great team.

Dr. Denton under promises and over delivers! I just turned 60 and made the decision to have Dr. Denton complete a deep plane neck and facelift and lip lift.
I absolutely love the outcome, so very natural. My face looks like me, just the version when I was 36-40. The neck and jawline, amazing. You are in very good hands with Dr. Denton.
