Regenerative Aesthetics
PRP & PRF Therapy Edmonton
Nurse-led regenerative treatments using your body's own growth factors to rejuvenate skin, restore radiance, and support healthier hair growth.
Natural Regeneration. Beautiful Results.
Your body has an incredible ability to heal and regenerate. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) therapies use your body's own natural growth factors to stimulate collagen production, improve skin quality, and encourage healthier, stronger hair growth.
At AQUA Aesthetics MED SPA & Laser, we offer personalized PRP and PRF treatments for facial rejuvenation, under-eye rejuvenation, microneedling enhancement, and hair restoration. Every treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation to determine the best approach for your individual goals.
What Are PRP and PRF?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) are regenerative treatments created from a small sample of your own blood. After drawing a blood sample, it is processed using a specialized centrifuge to concentrate the platelets and growth factors responsible for tissue repair and healing. These concentrated growth factors are then carefully injected into targeted areas or applied during microneedling to encourage your body's natural regenerative processes.
During your consultation, we'll recommend whether PRP or PRF is better suited for your concerns.
PRP
Platelet-Rich Plasma
- High concentration of platelets
- Excellent for stimulating collagen and hair follicles
- Often used with microneedling and scalp treatments
PRF
Platelet-Rich Fibrin
- Contains platelets, fibrin, white blood cells, and stem cell components
- No anticoagulants added during processing
- Releases growth factors gradually over time
- Often preferred for delicate facial areas such as under the eyes
Benefits of PRP & PRF Therapy
Because these treatments use your body's own regenerative cells, they offer a natural approach to improving skin and hair health.
Treatment Areas
Skin Rejuvenation
PRP & PRF for Skin
Stimulates collagen and elastin production to restore a healthier, more youthful appearance. Can improve:
- Fine lines
- Wrinkles
- Uneven skin texture
- Acne scarring
- Enlarged pores
- Sun-damaged skin
- Mild skin laxity
- Overall skin radiance
Microneedling
PRP Microneedling
Microneedling creates microchannels in the skin. Combined with PRP, growth factors are delivered directly into the skin. Commonly recommended for:
- Acne scars
- Fine lines
- Wrinkles
- Hyperpigmentation
- Uneven skin tone
- Enlarged pores
- Overall skin renewal
Under-Eye
PRF Under-Eye Rejuvenation
The under-eye area is delicate and often one of the first places to show signs of aging. PRF is commonly used to improve:
- Dark circles
- Hollow under-eyes
- Fine lines
- Thin skin
- Overall skin quality
Because PRF releases growth factors gradually, improvements develop naturally over several weeks.
Hair Restoration
PRP Hair Restoration
PRP therapy supports healthier hair follicles by delivering concentrated growth factors directly to the scalp. Potential benefits include:
- Reduced hair shedding
- Increased hair thickness
- Improved hair density

Most effective for individuals experiencing early to moderate hair thinning.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many PRP or PRF treatments will I need?
The number of treatments depends on your goals and the condition being treated. Many clients benefit from a series of treatments followed by maintenance sessions as recommended by their provider.
When will I see results?
Results develop gradually as your body's natural healing response takes place. Skin improvements are often noticed within several weeks, while hair restoration results typically become more noticeable over several months.
Is PRP or PRF safe?
Because the treatment uses your own blood, the risk of allergic reaction is very low. As with any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects that will be discussed during your consultation.
Does the treatment hurt?
Most clients tolerate the procedure well. A topical numbing cream may be used for skin treatments to improve comfort.
Can PRP and PRF be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Depending on your goals, these therapies may be combined with treatments such as microneedling or other aesthetic procedures. Your provider will recommend a treatment plan based on your individual needs.
Is there any downtime?
Most clients return to normal daily activities within one to two days, although temporary redness or swelling may occur.
