Skin Renewal
PRP Treatment in Southampton, Ontario
Platelet-rich plasma, or PRP, is a treatment that uses a concentrated portion of your own blood as part of a personalized skin-rejuvenation or hair-restoration treatment plan.
Typical downtime: 1 to 2 days

At Allure Medical Aesthetics, PRP treatment is provided in a clinical setting after a consultation with our medical team. PRP may be considered for concerns such as dull or uneven-looking skin, fine lines, texture changes, selected scars, under-eye concerns, and hair thinning.
What Is Platelet-Rich Plasma?
Platelet-rich plasma is prepared from a small sample of your own blood. Platelets are blood components involved in clotting and tissue repair. They contain proteins and growth factors that are studied for their role in cell signalling and the body’s natural repair processes. During a PRP treatment, blood is drawn and processed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelet-rich portion. Depending on the treatment plan, PRP may be injected into selected areas or applied with microneedling. PRP is used in several areas of medicine, including orthopaedics, dentistry, and wound-related research. Cosmetic PRP uses, including facial rejuvenation and PRP for hair thinning, are elective treatments. Evidence, results, protocols, and candidacy vary by application.
What Can PRP Treat?
PRP may be considered as part of an individualized plan for:
- Dull-looking or uneven skin tone.
- Fine lines and selected wrinkles.
- Changes in skin texture and visible pores.
- Selected acne scars and other scars.
- Under-eye hollows or dark-circle concerns, where clinically appropriate.
- Sun-damaged or mature-looking skin.
- Hair thinning in selected candidates.
- Early-stage hair loss or reduced hair density, depending on the underlying cause.
- Selected stretch-mark concerns.
- Neck, décolletage, hand, or facial skin-rejuvenation goals.
PRP does not treat every type of scar, skin concern, or hair-loss condition. Severe scarring, advanced hair loss, sudden hair shedding, scalp disease, or a new skin lesion may require diagnosis or referral before aesthetic treatment is considered.
PRP Facial Rejuvenation
PRP facial treatment may be used to support a fresher, more even-looking complexion and improve the appearance of selected texture concerns. It can be used as an injectable treatment or in combination with microneedling, depending on the treatment area and goals. Clients often ask about PRP for face concerns including fine lines, wrinkles, texture, dullness, under-eye hollows, dark circles, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and facial volume changes. A consultation is essential because PRP is not always the most appropriate treatment for each of these concerns. For example, hyaluronic-acid fillers may be more suitable for defined structural volume loss, while neuromodulators such as Botox or Dysport address muscle- related dynamic lines. Your provider can discuss whether PRP, filler, neuromodulator treatment, microneedling, laser, radiofrequency, or another approach is most appropriate.
PRP Microneedling and Vampire Facial
PRP microneedling combines microneedling with platelet-rich plasma as part of a skin-rejuvenation treatment plan. Microneedling creates controlled microchannels in the skin, and PRP may be applied during the treatment as directed by your provider. “Vampire facial” is a popular search term for PRP microneedling or PRP facial treatments. It is not a separate medical procedure. At Allure, the approach is
determined by your skin condition, treatment goals, prior procedures, downtime tolerance, and clinical suitability. PRP microneedling may be considered for selected concerns such as skin texture, fine lines, visible pores, dullness, and certain acne scars. It does not guarantee removal of scars, wrinkles, pigmentation, or pores.
PRP for Hair Thinning and Hair Restoration
PRP hair treatment involves placing platelet-rich plasma in selected areas of the scalp as part of a plan for eligible clients with hair thinning. It may be considered for women and men with early-stage thinning when hair follicles remain active. PRP for hair restoration is not a cure for hair loss and cannot restore follicles that are no longer functioning. Hair loss can have many causes, including hereditary pattern hair loss, hormonal changes, thyroid disorders, nutritional deficiency, medication, stress, scalp conditions, recent illness, and postpartum shedding. A scalp and medical assessment is important before PRP hair treatment. Sudden, patchy, painful, inflamed, or rapidly progressing hair loss requires appropriate medical evaluation.
Your PRP Treatment Process
Consultation and assessment
We begin by discussing your concern, health history, medications, previous cosmetic treatments, and treatment goals. For PRP hair treatment, this may include a scalp assessment and discussion of the pattern and history of shedding or thinning.
Blood draw
A small quantity of blood is drawn from your arm. The amount varies according to the treatment plan.
PRP preparation
The sample is placed in a centrifuge to separate the blood components and prepare the platelet-rich plasma. The exact PRP system and preparation protocol are selected by the clinical provider.
Treatment delivery
PRP may be injected into selected skin or scalp areas, or combined with microneedling for appropriate facial skin concerns. Topical numbing may be used when clinically appropriate.
Aftercare and follow-up
Your provider explains what to expect, how to care for the treated area, and whether a series or maintenance plan may be appropriate. Treatment appointment of approximately 45 to 60 minutes and describes a blood draw, centrifuge processing, and PRP injection
PRP Results and Treatment Timeline
PRP results are gradual and vary by treatment area, health history, skin quality, degree of hair thinning, treatment method, and individual biological response. For skin-rejuvenation goals, some clients notice early changes around three to four weeks after treatment, while texture and tone changes may continue to develop over several months. A series of three sessions spaced one to two months apart is commonly recommended, although your individual plan may differ. For hair thinning, results usually require patience and consistent follow-up. Your provider will explain when reassessment makes sense and whether maintenance may be recommended. Results may vary.
PRP Aftercare and Recovery
PRP downtime is usually limited, but you may experience temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, bruising, itching, or small injection-site marks.
PRP microneedling may also cause temporary redness, dryness, sensitivity, or peeling. Follow the aftercare instructions given by your provider. Depending on your treatment, you may be asked to avoid certain skincare actives, makeup, heat exposure, exercise, alcohol, anti-inflammatory medication, scalp products, or sun exposure for a specified period. Contact the clinic or seek appropriate medical attention if you develop worsening pain, expanding redness, fever, pus-like discharge, severe swelling, a significant reaction, or other symptoms that concern you.
PRP Risks and Safety
PRP uses your own blood, which reduces the chance of a reaction to donor material. However, it remains a medical procedure and carries possible risks. Potential side effects include pain, tenderness, itching, bleeding, bruising, swelling, temporary redness, infection, dizziness or fainting after blood draw, and an unsatisfactory cosmetic outcome. Any injection also carries uncommon risks such as injury to nearby structures. PRP may not be appropriate during pregnancy or breastfeeding, for people using anticoagulant medication, or for people with certain blood disorders, active infection, some autoimmune conditions, active or recent cancer concerns, uncontrolled medical conditions, or a history that affects healing. Final suitability is determined through a medical consultation.
PRP vs Other Treatments
PRP vs Fillers
PRP uses a concentrated component of your own blood and may be selected for overall skin-quality goals. Hyaluronic-acid fillers such as Restylane or Juvederm add physical volume or structural support in targeted areas. Neither treatment is automatically better; the right option depends on the concern and anatomy.
PRP vs Botox or Dysport
PRP may be considered for skin quality, while Botox or Dysport temporarily relaxes selected facial muscles to soften dynamic expression lines. They work differently and may sometimes be part of separate treatment plans.
PRP vs Microneedling Alone
Microneedling creates controlled microchannels to support skin renewal. PRP microneedling adds autologous platelet-rich plasma. Your provider will recommend the most appropriate option based on your skin and goals.
PRP vs PRF
PRP and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) are prepared from blood but differ in preparation methods, composition, and clinical use. A consultation is needed to determine whether either is offered and suitable for your concern.
PRP vs Exosomes
PRP is created from your own blood. Exosome products are different products with different regulatory, sourcing, and evidence considerations. Your provider can explain the options offered at Allure and their suitability.
PRP Cost and Pricing
PRP treatment cost depends on the treatment area, PRP preparation method, whether treatment is for the face, skin, scalp, or microneedling, the number of sessions recommended, and the individualized plan.
