PRP Hair Treatment Calgary at SkinCentives Medical Spa

PRP Hair Restoration in Calgary


PRP Hair Treatment Calgary at SkinCentives Medical Spa is a personalized, non-surgical treatment approach for individuals experiencing hair thinning or hair loss. PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy uses a small sample of the patient's blood, which is processed to isolate platelet-rich plasma before it is carefully injected into targeted areas of the scalp.

The treatment plan is discussed with Dr. Zahid Rafiq and tailored to the individual's hair and scalp concerns, goals, and overall needs.

For general information about hair loss and alopecia, you can also refer to the Canadian Dermatology Association's hair loss information .
