Dr. Tessa Stark

PRP Vancouver

Dr. Tessa Stark is a naturopathic doctor in Vancouver with a focus in anti-aging, longevity, and aesthetic medicine. After completing her BSc in Physiology and Pharmacology at the University of Saskatchewan, she moved to Vancouver to pursue her dream of becoming a naturopathic doctor. Dr. Stark graduated from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2019, after which she pursued additional training in platelet rich plasma (PRP), botox, filler, IV therapy, and other therapeutic modalities. In 2022, she completed an additional fellowship through the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, the fellowship in anti-aging, metabolic, and functional medicine (FAAMFM). Dr. Stark believes in offering care that is innovative, comprehensive, and efficacious.

Dr. Stark is excited to offer PRP hair restoration at Deeply Rooted Hair + Skin Clinic in Vancouver. This is a procedure that she has performed over 1000 times, and has a huge passion for. It is a natural, innovative, and effective treatment for hair loss that uses your own growth factors and regenerative cells! PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is extracted from your blood and then injected into your scalp in areas of hair thinning. It targets hair growth at the level of the hair follicle, combining microneedling and intradermal injections. The procedure takes approximately 1 hour and has almost zero downtime.

After the hair restoration procedure, Dr. Stark’s patients notice an increase in hair growth and hair density. Growth factors will continue to be released over the weeks and months following the PRP/PRF procedure. More significant results have been shown with 3 treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, along with a proper hair-care regimen and nutrition regimen. Dr. Stark ensures that her patients are able to achieve the best results possible, and therefore takes the time to customize recommendations for each patient in order to optimize the effects of the procedure.

Dr. Stark looks forward to working with you at Deeply Rooted
