For Healing: A Proven Ally for Sports & Injury Recovery
PRP isn’t just for the skin—it’s also widely used to accelerate healing in soft tissue injuries, including tendons, joints, and ligaments. Athletes like Tiger Woods, Kobe Bryant, and Canadian figure skater Kaetlyn Osmond have turned to PRP to support recovery, reduce pain, and return to peak performance faster. By injecting concentrated platelets directly into the injured area, PRP helps reduce inflammation, stimulate cell repair, and restore function more quickly.
What to Expect
Whether used for facial rejuvenation or injury support, PRP treatments are minimally invasive, all-natural, and require little to no downtime. Most treatment plans involve 1 to 3 sessions spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart, depending on your needs and goals. Since the results develop gradually, you'll notice improvements unfolding as your body rebuilds itself—beautifully and authentically.
At Beechwood, we believe the best results come from working with your body, not against it. PRP is one of the most exciting ways to support your skin, your healing, and your confidence—naturally.
PLATELET-RICH PLASMA (PRP)
Restore Radiance. Repair Naturally.
Sometimes, the most powerful transformations come from within. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)—often referred to as regenerative medicine—uses your body’s own healing abilities to refresh your skin, accelerate repair, and restore confidence from the inside out.
PRP is a versatile treatment that can be used for both facial rejuvenation and soft tissue repair. It begins with a simple blood draw. From there, we spin your sample in a centrifuge to separate the platelets and plasma, creating a concentrated solution rich in growth factors. These platelets are the natural healers of the body—responsible for repairing tissue, stimulating collagen, and supporting cell renewal.
For Skin: Brighten, Firm, and Restore Naturally
Facial PRP is a favourite for those looking to soften fine lines, brighten tired under-eyes, and improve overall tone and elasticity—without fillers or surgery. Popular treatment areas include:
Dark circles or puffiness under the eyes
Fine lines around the mouth, cheeks, and eyes
Early sagging or dull, uneven skin tone
PRP can also be used to treat acne scars, skin depressions, and crepey texture, helping to regenerate tissue and encourage your body to produce its own collagen. Over the course of 6 to 8 weeks, most clients begin to notice smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin—with results that look natural, because they are.
WHY GET PRP?
-
REJUVENATE SKIN NATURALLY
PRP uses your body’s own platelets to stimulate collagen, improve skin tone, and restore firmness—making it a perfect option for those who want brighter, smoother skin without synthetic fillers or invasive procedures.
-
SUPPORT HAIR REGROWTH
When injected into the scalp, PRP can reactivate dormant hair follicles, reduce shedding, and promote fuller, healthier hair—especially in the early stages of hair loss or postpartum thinning.

ACCELERATE HEALING
PRP is also widely used to support soft tissue repair, making it a trusted option for those recovering from joint pain, tendon injuries, or inflammation—including athletes and active individuals looking to heal naturally and get back to what they love.
FAQs
-
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma—a treatment that uses your own blood to help regenerate skin, stimulate hair growth, or support healing in soft tissues. We draw a small amount of blood, spin it in a centrifuge to isolate the platelets and growth factors, and then inject or apply it to targeted areas. These platelets trigger natural collagen production, tissue repair, and cellular renewal—all from your body’s own healing power.
-
PRP is incredibly versatile. We commonly use it for:
Facial rejuvenation (under-eyes, cheeks, fine lines, acne scars)
Hair restoration (early-stage thinning or postpartum hair loss)
Soft tissue repair (joints, tendons, inflammation from injury)
-
Yes—because PRP is created from your own blood, the risk of allergic reaction or rejection is very low. It’s a natural, autologous treatment with a long track record of safety in both aesthetic and orthopedic medicine.
-
Discomfort is minimal. You may feel a small pinch during the blood draw and injection, but we use numbing cream or localized anesthetic to ensure you’re comfortable. Most clients describe the sensation as tolerable and quick.
-
PRP works gradually. Most clients begin to see improvements in skin texture, tone, or hair density within 4 to 6 weeks, with continued results building over the following 2 to 3 months. For injury recovery, you may notice reduced pain and improved mobility in a similar timeframe.
-
We typically recommend 1 to 3 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, depending on the area being treated and your desired outcome. Maintenance sessions can be scheduled a few times a year to keep results fresh.
-
Downtime is minimal. After facial or scalp treatments, you may experience mild redness, swelling, or tenderness for 24–48 hours. For joint or tendon injections, you may feel some stiffness or soreness for a few days, but most clients return to daily activities right away.
