What Is PRP
Platelet-Rich Plasma therapy, commonly known as PRP, is a regenerative medical treatment that harnesses the healing and growth-promoting properties naturally found within your own blood. Your blood contains platelets, specialized cells that are rich in growth factors responsible for tissue repair, cell regeneration, and the stimulation of new blood vessel formation. When concentrated and injected directly into the scalp, these growth factors reactivate hair follicles that have become dormant or weakened due to androgenetic alopecia, stress, hormonal changes, or other causes of hair loss.
PRP for hair restoration has been extensively studied in clinical research and has demonstrated consistent effectiveness in slowing hair loss progression, increasing hair density, and stimulating new hair growth in patients with various forms of alopecia. It is widely used by dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and hair restoration specialists as both a standalone treatment and as a complement to other hair loss therapies.
At Aria Aesthetics in Hollywood, FL, Erika Magarian, ARNP performs PRP hair restoration using a precise, evidence-based protocol developed from her clinical background in both dermatology and pain management. She takes the time to thoroughly assess the pattern, cause, and severity of your hair loss before recommending PRP, ensuring that the treatment is appropriate for your specific situation and that your expectations are realistic and achievable.

I recently visited Aria Aesthetics for Botox and had a fantastic experience with Erika The service was excellent, and she made me feel comfortable throughout the process. Erika is not only knowledgeable about her craft but also a great conversationalist, which made the appointment enjoyable. I truly appreciate her expertise, and it’s clear she cares about her clients. I will definitely be coming back for more treatments… 🗽Posted on Jessica La CroixTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have known Erika through my doctor for some time, so when she began offering injectables and other various treatments, I was so excited. I just knew she would approach it with the same care, consideration and commitment to her patients that I had already known her to exhibit with my health issue. As a woman getting closer to middle age, I’d been toying with the idea of Botox for some time but had not pulled the trigger. I finally did so and could not be more thrilled. It looks natural and was virtually painless. Erika used a numbing cream and the whole process took 15 mins. The effects were subtle but very satisfactory and more importantly, natural-looking! I also got my mom a Hydrafacial for Christmas and she has already let me know she wants the same thing for her birthday. We both got great results from a personable and knowledgeable professional, so if you’re looking for someone in aesthetics, Erika is for sure who you want.Posted on AceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

How It Works
The process begins with a small blood draw from your arm, similar to a routine blood test. The amount drawn is minimal and causes no significant discomfort. A trained provider collects the sample quickly and efficiently, keeping you at ease from start to finish. This sample provides the concentrated growth factors that power your entire treatment session.
Your blood sample is placed into a specialized centrifuge that spins at high speed to separate its components by density. This process isolates the platelet-rich plasma layer, which contains the highest concentration of growth factors. The resulting PRP solution is significantly more concentrated than whole blood, maximizing its regenerative effect.
Before injections begin, Erika cleanses the treatment area and applies a topical numbing solution to minimize discomfort during the procedure. A scalp block may also be used for patients with higher sensitivity to pain or pressure. Together, these preparation steps are designed to keep you comfortable and relaxed from start to finish.
Using a very fine needle, Erika administers the PRP solution through a series of precise injections across areas of the scalp experiencing thinning or loss. Each injection is placed at a specific depth to deliver growth factors directly to the hair follicle bulge, the region responsible for hair production. The full injection process typically takes 20 to 30 minutes.
Following the injections, Erika applies a soothing scalp treatment and provides detailed aftercare instructions. Most patients experience mild tenderness and scalp tightness for 24 to 48 hours, which is a normal response to treatment. There is no visible downtime and most patients return to their normal activities immediately after the appointment.
Who Is a Good Candidate
PRP hair restoration is effective for a wide range of hair loss patterns and causes. At Aria Aesthetics in Hollywood, FL, Erika assesses every patient individually during a free consultation to determine whether PRP is the right treatment for their specific type and degree of hair loss.
Best Candidates for PRP Hair Restoration
PRP produces the most significant results in patients who are in the early to moderate stages of hair loss and who still have living hair follicles in the thinning areas. It is most effective for the following conditions:
Who May Not Be an Ideal Candidate
PRP works by stimulating existing hair follicles. If the hair loss in a given area is long-standing and the follicles have been completely inactive for many years, PRP may not be able to reactivate them. Patients who are not ideal candidates for PRP may benefit from other hair restoration options such as Alma TED hair regeneration or Exosome therapy for hair loss, both of which are also offered at Aria Aesthetics. Erika will assess your scalp during your consultation and give you an honest recommendation based on what she finds.
Also Available
In addition to PRP hair restoration, Aria Aesthetics in Hollywood, FL also offers the Vampire Facial, a powerful skin rejuvenation treatment that combines PRP therapy with microneedling to deliver your body’s own growth factors deep into the facial skin for comprehensive cellular regeneration and collagen stimulation.
During the Vampire Facial, a microneedling treatment is performed first to create thousands of microscopic channels across the face. Immediately after, the freshly processed PRP solution is applied topically to the skin and absorbed deeply through these channels, delivering a concentrated dose of growth factors directly to the dermal layer where they can stimulate collagen production, accelerate cell renewal, and improve skin texture, tone, and firmness from the inside out.
The Vampire Facial is one of the most powerful skin rejuvenation treatments available at Aria Aesthetics because it combines two proven collagen-stimulating therapies in a single appointment. Patients who receive the Vampire Facial consistently report more significant improvements in skin texture, brightness, and firmness compared to microneedling alone.
Your Results
PRP hair restoration is not an instant treatment. The growth factors injected into your scalp work by gradually reactivating follicles and stimulating new hair growth cycles, a biological process that takes time to become visible. Understanding this timeline before you begin treatment is essential to having realistic and satisfying expectations.
Most patients begin to notice a reduction in hair shedding within the first 4 to 6 weeks after their initial PRP treatment. This is typically the first sign that the treatment is working, as hair loss slows before new growth becomes visible. New hair growth usually begins to appear at the 3 to 6 month mark following the first session, with the most noticeable improvement in hair density visible at the 6 to 9 month point after completing a full treatment series.
Why Choose Aria Aesthetics
Hair follicles are precise biological structures, and where growth factors are delivered within the scalp determines how well they perform. Erika’s medical background allows her to map each patient’s scalp individually, adjusting injection depth and distribution based on the actual pattern of follicle activity present. That level of anatomical reading is not part of a standard aesthetics course and cannot be replicated by following a generic protocol.
Hair loss has many causes, and the right treatment depends entirely on what is driving it in your specific case. Before any session is scheduled, Erika takes time to understand your hair loss history, examine your scalp condition, and identify whether the follicles in affected areas are still biologically capable of responding. That evaluation shapes everything that follows and protects you from investing in a treatment that was never the right fit.
Different stages and patterns of hair loss respond to different interventions, and having access to more than one option changes the quality of the recommendation you receive. Erika draws from PRP hair restoration, Alma TED hair regeneration, and Exosome therapy when building a treatment plan, selecting based on what your scalp actually needs rather than what is most convenient. That flexibility consistently produces more targeted outcomes than any single-treatment practice can offer.
The growth factors used in PRP therapy are not manufactured in a lab or sourced from an external compound, which removes a significant category of treatment risk from the start. They are isolated from your own blood sample during the same appointment, reintroduced into your scalp in concentrated form, and recognized by your body as native. That biological compatibility is what keeps the risk profile low and makes PRP a treatment that works with your physiology rather than around it.
Your first step toward naturally thicker, fuller, and healthier hair is a free, no-pressure consultation with Erika Magarian, ARNP at Aria Aesthetics in Hollywood, FL. Erika will examine your scalp, assess your pattern of hair loss, and give you an honest recommendation about whether PRP is the right treatment for your specific goals. Same-week appointments are available Monday through Friday.
Frequently Asked Questions
With the topical numbing solution applied before treatment, most patients experience only mild pressure or a light stinging sensation during the injections. The procedure is well-tolerated by the vast majority of patients. After the treatment, the scalp may feel tender and tight for 24 to 48 hours, which is a normal response. Over-the-counter pain relief is sufficient to manage any post-treatment discomfort if needed.
For optimal results, Erika recommends an initial series of 3 PRP sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. After completing the initial series, maintenance treatments every 4 to 6 months are recommended to sustain and continue building on the results. The exact number of sessions will be discussed and personalized during your free consultation based on your specific hair loss pattern and goals.

Yes. PRP pairs very effectively with Alma TED hair regeneration and Exosome therapy as part of a comprehensive hair restoration plan. Erika may also recommend combining PRP with specific hair loss supplements or topical treatments to support the regenerative process between sessions. She will recommend the most effective combined protocol for your specific pattern of hair loss during your consultation.
PRP is most effective in areas where hair follicles are still present but dormant or weakened. In areas of complete baldness where follicles have been inactive for many years, PRP is unlikely to stimulate regrowth because there are no viable follicles remaining to activate. Erika will assess your scalp during your consultation and give you an honest recommendation based on her clinical assessment of your follicle status.
PRP uses injections of concentrated growth factors from your own blood to stimulate follicle activity. Alma TED uses ultrasound energy and air pressure to deliver hair growth activities into the scalp without needles and without any injections. TED is completely pain-free and needle-free, making it ideal for patients who want an effective hair restoration treatment without injections. Erika will recommend the most appropriate option for your specific situation during your free consultation.
