01Hair Rejuvenation
PRP for hair loss uses concentrated growth factors from your own blood to stimulate hair follicle activity, promote hair growth, and improve hair thickness and density.
Individual results vary. Your plan and timing are confirmed at consultation.
PRP hair rejuvenation in Christchurch at Silk Clinical Aesthetics injects concentrated platelets from your own blood into thinning areas of the scalp to stimulate hair follicles. Treatment takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes. An initial series of three sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart is recommended: $600 per session or $1,550 prepaid for three. Improvements typically show after 2 to 3 months, with full results over 6 to 12 months. Suitable for men and women with early to moderate thinning.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) hair rejuvenation involves injecting concentrated platelets from your own blood directly into areas of the scalp experiencing thinning or hair loss. The growth factors in PRP stimulate dormant hair follicles, promote new hair growth, and improve the thickness of existing hair.
The growth factors in PRP increase blood supply to the hair follicle, stimulate the dermal papilla cells responsible for hair growth, extend the growth phase of the hair cycle, and improve hair shaft thickness. This makes PRP effective for both men and women experiencing early to moderate hair thinning.
A blood sample is drawn and processed to concentrate the platelets. The PRP is then injected into the scalp in areas of thinning using a fine needle. Treatment takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes. Some mild discomfort may occur during injections, though most clients tolerate the procedure well.
Hair growth improvements are typically seen after 2 to 3 months, with full results developing over 6 to 12 months. An initial series of three treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart is recommended. Maintenance sessions every 6 to 12 months sustain results. You may experience mild scalp tenderness or redness for 24 hours after treatment.

PRP works best for early to moderate hair thinning where hair follicles are still present but underactive. It is suitable for both men and women. It is less effective for areas of complete baldness where follicles are no longer present.
Yes. PRP can complement other hair loss treatments and is often used as part of a comprehensive hair restoration plan. Your nurse will discuss all options during your consultation.
Hair growth improvements are typically seen after 2 to 3 months, with full results developing over 6 to 12 months as the hair cycle responds. PRP is not an instant treatment: the growth factors need time to stimulate follicle activity. Your nurse will set a realistic timeline at consultation and review progress across your treatment series.
