PRP Therapy in Metairie, LA
Harness your body's own healing factors for skin and hair rejuvenation.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy uses concentrated growth factors drawn from your own blood to stimulate healing, collagen production, and tissue regeneration. Because it's derived entirely from your own biology, the risk of allergic reaction is minimal — and the regenerative effects build naturally over weeks and months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is PRP safe?
PRP uses your own platelets, so the risk of allergic reaction is minimal. It's been used safely in medicine for decades.
Does PRP work for hair loss?
Yes — PRP can stimulate dormant hair follicles and improve density, especially when started early. Best results come from consistent treatment.
Can PRP replace hair transplant surgery?
For mild-to-moderate thinning, PRP is often a great non-surgical option. For advanced hair loss, surgery may still be the best path — Dr. Jones will give you an honest recommendation.
