For many people, hair is more than just strands—it’s part of identity, confidence, and personal style. When you notice thinning, shedding, or a change in fullness, it can feel discouraging. At Lasting Impressions Laser in Edmonton, we believe in treatments that not only work but also feel supportive, restorative, and natural. That’s why we offer PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Hair Rejuvenation, a therapy that uses your body’s own plasma to help nurture your scalp and encourage stronger, healthier hair. Unlike some medical hair procedures, our approach is spa-based and gentle. Instead of injections, we use micro-needling to infuse your plasma into the scalp. This method delivers growth factors directly where they’re needed, without feeling clinical. The experience is designed to be as relaxing as possible, carried out by caring skin therapists who prioritize comfort and results.
What Exactly Is PRP?
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma, a golden concentrate taken from your own blood. Plasma is naturally rich in platelets, which are full of proteins and growth factors that help tissues renew and repair. These are the same natural signals your body uses to heal itself after a small cut or scrape. When applied to the scalp through micro-needling, PRP acts like a nutrient-dense boost that awakens sluggish follicles and supports healthy new growth. Think of it as taking what your body already creates and delivering it back to the areas that need extra care. There are no artificial chemicals, no foreign substances—just you, revitalized.
Why PRP Is Different from Other Hair Treatments
There are many products on the market that claim to improve hair density, from shampoos and oils to prescription options. What makes PRP stand apart is its natural, holistic quality. Instead of relying on chemicals, PRP amplifies your body’s own regenerative process. Because our spa uses micro-needling instead of injections, the treatment feels approachable. Clients describe the sensation as light prickling or tingling, rather than invasive. After a session, there’s minimal downtime, making it easy to return to daily life.
The Benefits of PRP for Scalp and Hair
Clients often choose PRP because it provides a well-rounded set of benefits: Encourages thicker, healthier strands – growth factors in plasma help hair feel stronger and denser. Supports scalp vitality – improved circulation and nourishment bring balance back to the scalp. Minimizes shedding – many clients notice less hair falling out after a series of treatments. Boosts confidence – fuller, healthier-looking hair has a natural way of uplifting how you feel each day. Safe and natural – since the treatment uses your own plasma, the body recognizes it and responds positively.
What to Expect During a PRP Scalp Session
At Lasting Impressions, we know that how a treatment feels is just as important as the results. From the moment you arrive, our team ensures your experience feels calm, restorative, and spa-like. Here’s a step-by-step sense of what happens: Preparation of plasma – a small amount of your blood is drawn, then spun in a centrifuge to separate the golden plasma. Micro-needling application – instead of injecting, we gently micro-needle the plasma into your scalp. This creates tiny pathways that allow growth factors to reach deep where they’re needed. Comfort care – our therapists keep you relaxed throughout, often adding soothing touches to make the process as comfortable as possible. Afterglow – once complete, your scalp may feel slightly tingly or look a little pink, but this fades quickly. Most clients return to their regular activities right away.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it hurt? Most clients describe the sensation as light prickling, similar to a scalp massage with added tingling. It is not considered painful. How many sessions will I need? Results build gradually. Typically, a series of three to four sessions, spaced a few weeks apart, provides the best foundation. Maintenance sessions may be recommended to keep results long-lasting. When will I notice changes? Hair growth takes time. Many clients notice reduced shedding within weeks, with thicker, healthier strands appearing in the months that follow. Is there downtime? Not much at all. Aside from temporary scalp pinkness, most people return to work, social plans, or daily routines immediately.
Who Is PRP For?
PRP scalp treatments are wonderful for both men and women who are noticing thinner areas or more visible scalp, experiencing seasonal shedding (common in Edmonton’s dry winters), hoping to strengthen existing hair before it becomes thinner, or interested in a natural, non-surgical option. It’s also an excellent way to invest in long-term scalp health. Even if you’re not experiencing significant thinning, PRP can help preserve and protect what you already have.
