Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy in Olympia, Washington

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) Therapy begins with drawing a small sample of your blood, which is then processed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP). This golden plasma is packed with growth factors and healing properties that promote cell renewal, collagen production, and tissue regeneration. Once injected into the skin or scalp, PRP rejuvenates the skin, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, enhances elasticity, and stimulates hair follicles for thicker, healthier hair growth. Over time, this natural, regenerative treatment improves skin texture, tone, and overall vitality, providing long-lasting, youthful results.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) Therapy works gradually, stimulating collagen production and tissue regeneration. For skin rejuvenation, texture, tone, and elasticity improvements typically become noticeable within a few weeks, with continued enhancement over the next 3–6 months. Hair restoration patients usually begin to see fuller, healthier hair growth within 3–4 months as hair follicles become more vigorous and active. Since PRP supports natural healing and regeneration, results improve progressively with each session.

PRP treatments work gradually, with skin improvements noticeable within a few weeks. Hair restoration patients typically begin to see fuller, healthier hair growth within 3–4 months as follicles become more vigorous.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) Therapy results can last 12–18 months, depending on individual factors such as lifestyle, skincare routine, overall health, and the body’s natural healing response.  Maintenance treatments every 6–12 months are recommended for long-term benefits to prolong the effects and continue stimulating collagen production or hair follicle regeneration. With consistent care, PRP therapy can provide lasting improvements in skin texture, tone, and hair density.

Because PRP comes from your blood, there is no risk of allergic reactions or serious or serious complications. Some patients may experience mild redness, swelling, or tenderness at the injection site, but these effects are temporary and typically subside within 24–48 hours. Since platelet-rich plasma (PRP) Therapy is a natural, regenerative treatment, it is generally well-tolerated, making it a safe and effective option for skin rejuvenation and hair restoration.

Most patients benefit from a series of 3 PRP sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, to achieve optimal skin rejuvenation or hair restoration. The results improve over time as collagen is produced and follicle regeneration takes effect.  Annual touch-up sessions are recommended to maintain long-term improvements, ensuring sustained benefits and healthier, more youthful-looking skin or thicker, fuller hair.

The best candidate for Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is someone who is:

• In good overall health – No major blood disorders, active infections, or severe chronic illnesses.
• Looking for natural rejuvenation – PRP uses your own blood to stimulate healing, making it ideal for those who prefer non-surgical treatments.
• Committed to the process – Multiple sessions may be needed for optimal results, especially for hair restoration or skin rejuvenation.
• Non-smoker or minimal smoker – Smoking can impact healing and reduce the effectiveness of PRP.
• Not on blood thinners – These can affect platelet function and may reduce the efficacy of the treatment.

• Younger Candidates (20s-40s) – Tend to have a stronger healing response, making PRP great for early signs of aging, hair loss prevention, and athletic recovery.
• Middle-Aged Candidates (40s-60s) – Can benefit from PRP for skin rejuvenation, hair restoration, and joint health, though they may need more sessions for optimal results.
• Older Candidates (60s and beyond) – May still see improvement, but results might be slower or require combination treatments (e.g., microneedling, fillers, or exosome therapy for enhanced benefits).
