Scalp PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is a revolutionary, non-surgical hair restoration treatment designed to stimulate your body’s natural healing processes and promote fuller, healthier hair. At Viva Med Spa & Wellness in Cranston, RI, we use the power of your own blood to enhance hair growth by reactivating weakened hair follicles and improving scalp health.
Whether you’re noticing early signs of hair thinning or want to strengthen your current hair growth, Scalp PRP offers a safe and effective solution that delivers natural results.
Injectable (PRP)
60-90 minutes
Minimal downtime
Scalp PRP hair restoration at Viva Med Spa & Wellness is a practical, non-surgical solution for individuals seeking to enhance hair growth without using medications. The process involves drawing a small amount of your blood, spinning it in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelet-rich plasma, and then carefully injecting it into areas of thinning or weak hair on the scalp.
PRP is packed with growth factors and proteins that help heal tissue and stimulate hair follicles to enter a growth phase. This increases blood supply to the follicles, resulting in thicker hair shafts and better hair density.
This non-invasive method benefits individuals experiencing early signs of hair thinning or patchy hair loss. It is also suitable for both men and women who seek a proactive and natural way to promote long-term scalp and hair health.
Before Treatment
Ahead of your Scalp PRP session, we recommend avoiding blood thinners, alcohol, and smoking for 48 hours to minimize bruising and optimize results. During your consultation, a provider will evaluate your hair loss history and overall health to confirm your eligibility for treatment.
During Treatment
The session takes about 60 to 90 minutes. After drawing, a small amount of blood is processed in a centrifuge to isolate platelet-rich plasma. The PRP is then injected into targeted scalp areas using a fine needle. Most patients report minimal discomfort, often likened to small pinches or pressure.
After Treatment
There is little to no downtime. You may experience mild swelling, redness, or tenderness at the injection sites, which usually subsides within a few hours. You should avoid strenuous exercise, heat exposure, or hair treatments for 48 hours following your treatment.
Scalp PRP is usually conducted through a series of 3 to 4 treatments, which are spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. After the initial series, maintenance treatments every 6–12 months are recommended to preserve results and keep follicles healthy and active.
This consistent approach helps maintain hair regrowth, prevent future thinning, and keep your scalp in peak condition for long-term improvement.
Most patients see results within 3–6 months, with hair becoming thicker, fuller, and healthier. As the growth cycle progresses, you’ll notice continued improvement in volume and density. This is particularly true when PRP is used in the early stages of hair thinning.
Over time and with maintenance, scalp PRP can produce natural, long-lasting results without invasive procedures.

Scalp PRP works by isolating the body’s natural healing components, platelet-rich plasma, from your blood and injecting it into areas with thinning hair. These growth factors stimulate follicles, increase blood flow, and support natural hair regrowth.
Most patients report only mild discomfort, described as small pinches or a slight pressure during injection. No general anesthesia is required, and any soreness typically subsides quickly.
Results are usually noticeable within 3 to 6 months as follicles begin producing thicker, healthier hair. Continued treatments improve and sustain long-term results.
We usually recommend an initial series of 3 to 4 treatments, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Following this, maintenance sessions should occur every 6 to 12 months, depending on your response and goals.
Regular treatments can help slow or stop further hair loss by strengthening and revitalizing hair follicles.
Scalp PRP is safe for most individuals with early to moderate hair thinning. However, it may not suit those with certain medical conditions or advanced baldness. A consultation will help determine your candidacy.
