RICHMOND · GREATER VANCOUVER

PRP & Medical Aesthetics

A physician-led clinic for joint pain, hair loss and skin concerns.

Why we test your PRP

Two syringes can hold the same volume of PRP but contain very different numbers of platelets. Clinical research guides the dose we target for your condition. We test every preparation to calculate how many platelets you’ll receive.

Know what’s in your PRP.

Platelets release growth factors and cytokines that help coordinate healing and tissue repair. Studies in knee osteoarthritis and other conditions suggest that higher platelet doses may improve symptoms.

With each treatment, we precisely target and measure platelet dose and cellular composition of your PRP. For joint and tendon injections, we use ultrasound guidance to target specific problem areas.

Concentration

How many platelets are in each microlitre of your PRP.

Composition

The balance of platelets, red blood cells and white blood cells.

Total platelet dose

The number of platelets in the volume prepared for your treatment.

Dr. Yam and Siara were really patient and friendly for answering all my questions … More with regards to my arthritic knee with meniscus damage + ACL grade 3 tear.
The compassion+knowledge that Dr Yam has really impressed me. He was able to diagnose accurately the issues of my knee and was able to identify that my LCL ligament was a bit lax naturally -an issue the previous physios and even surgeons weren't able to identify.
The treatment feels really good and honestly not that painful at all. I've got a Platelet lysate injection with HA that had over 17 billion platelets!
Really thankful for Dr Yam, Siara and the team for really delivering quality care and concern for my condition.
Gabriel C ★★★★★

I received excellent service from Siara and Dr. Yam in treating my hip osteoarthritis … More with high concentration PRP. Siara was very responsive and considerate, making special arrangements for me to get my treatment as soon as possible on a weekend. I found Dr. Yam to be extremely knowledgeable, competent, and empathetic. He thoroughly explained the process and patiently answered all my questions prior to the procedure. He also paid very close attention to quality and precision in preparing and administering the treatment. I would highly recommend this clinic for anybody who is seeking a remedy for osteoarthritis.
Stan L ★★★★★
I had PRP treatments on both of my arthritic hips with Dr. Patrick Yam at PRP … More Medical Aesthetics, and I am extremely grateful for the care I received. Dr. Yam is incredibly kind, humble, knowledgeable, and truly an expert in his field. He has spent years advancing the science behind regenerative therapies, and his depth of experience shows in the quality of his work and the confidence he gives his patients.
Even though I am still in the early stages of healing, I can already feel positive changes—less pain and improved mobility each day.
The medical staff is also wonderful. Siara, in particular, is so kind, friendly, and welcoming. She makes you feel completely comfortable throughout the entire process.

I just had such a wonderful experience at PRP! I did Botox and HIFU, and everything … More was honestly perfect. P’karn and p’Wi were incredibly gentle, patient, and reassuring throughout the whole process. The injector explained every step clearly, made me feel super comfortable, and the results already look amazing. The clinic is clean, modern, and welcoming. You can really feel that they care about their clients. I’m so happy I found this place and will definitely be coming back! (and I’m from Montreal)!!!

Dr. Patrick Yam is a very gentle dortor by nature. He explains every details … More in the process of PRP injection such as what to avoid , what to do before and after injection. Meanwhile he is also very professional: He told me how many CC blood has been drowned and how many platelet-rich plasmas have been injected to me knee joint to ensure I can get the best result. I am grateful that I have found a right Doctor for my knee arthritis treatment!
Linda H ★★★★★
I had an amazing experience here. After trying PRP at another clinic, I can … More confidently say this place is on a completely different level. They use a proper double-spin system, check platelet concentration, and really take the time to explain everything. My scalp feels healthier, less irritation, and I’m already seeing early improvement in hair strength and density. The staff is professional, honest, and genuinely cares about results. Highly recommend for anyone serious about PRP and hair health!
Rani N ★★★★★
We were so lucky to find Dr. Patrick Yam and this clinic! We desperately needed … More an effective, non-surgical treatment for my teen son’s meniscus tear. After a lot of research, we learned that for PRP to be effective in a large joint like the knee, you need a very high platelet concentration. But no other clinics in the area offered double-spin, high-concentration PRP.
We were delightfully surprised when Dr. Patrick literally ran out of the room when they started drawing my son’s blood just to check the platelet ratio and calculate how much blood to draw to reach over 10 billion platelets! I’ve never heard of any other clinic that takes that kind of care to ensure the right platelet count for each patient.
They also spend hours preparing the PRP because they double-spin it to create a more concentrated solution. Most clinics finish PRP appointments in 20–30 minutes, but Dr. Patrick spends more than two hours with each patient. In the end, my son’s injection contained about 15 billion platelets and his knee pain was gone within a month!
What stood out the most, beyond all the science and precision, was how much Dr. Patrick truly cares about his patients. He genuinely wanted to help my son, and that touched my heart. I’ve heard people fly from across Canada and even overseas to see him. We feel so lucky that his clinic is right here in Metro Vancouver.

Warisara U ★★★★★
I know its a bit odd to write a review before receiving the actual service, … More but I must say how impressed I already am with the staff. The reception was warm and very responsive, and my consult with Dr. Yam was a really positive experience. His knowledge base was extremely impressive, and PRP and BCP 157 were things I was looking into for quite some time. It was very apparent he is at the forefront on this field. In addition, he really was low pressure about booking services. I look forward to 2 months from now when I get my quad tendons addressed.
Update. Just received my treatment. Absolutely wonderful and professional experience. Warm and welcoming. It was very clear how much they specialize in regenerative health.

Everyone was so kind and professional. They were very informative, explained … More things well prior to and during the treatment. The treatment was very comfortable, and were on time. I’ve had PRP before ant a different clinic, and was quite tender and bruised for a few days afterwards. This time I felt almost nothing and had no post-op discomfort! It’s nice to know they are using top tier equipment, and count the platelets to ensure effective concentration. Not all PRP is the same! I will be returning.

I got a vampire facial, PRP under eyes, and Botox from the incredible team at … More the clinic. I have to say I have never been happier with my face! They recommended a few things with Botox and I cannot believe how great my face looks with just some tiny tweaks of a couple units in places. My skin looks great too after only one treatment. I have started getting compliments from friends and strangers on my skin and how “snatched” my face looks. I would highly recommend any of the treatments at the clinic. They’re a talented team who do great work!

So my hair loss journey pretty much started here at PRP medical. I began losing … More hair in my mid to late 20's. I'm 36 at the time of writing this review and I couldn't be happier to share my success with PRP medical as they have been a huge part of my hair restoration journey.Dr. Yam and Siara not only are super nice people but professional and experts in PRP field. I always look forward to my visits to hear all of Dr. Yam insights and latest advancement in his PRP research. While I did do one hair transplant in turkey - I don't believe my results would have been so great with fast recovery without PRP prior to surgery and continuous to this days with occasional follow ups.Dr. Yam is also extremely gentle for injections and sensitive of your pain level and always applies enough numbing for pain free procedure. Highly recommend him for PRP!

✨ My Jaw Botox & Chin Filler Experience! ✨I recently got jaw Botox and a … More chin filler done with Dr. Wii and I absolutely love the results! 💖I’ve always felt that my face shape looked a bit square and undefined, so I decided to try jaw Botox to slim down my jawline and added a bit of chin filler to balance my profile.I have to say, the chin filler is my favorite part! It gave my face a much nicer contour and a more elegant look from every angle. It looks so natural but really makes a difference, I feel more confident and love how it photographs too!The procedure was quick and surprisingly comfortable. I had minimal swelling and almost no downtime. I can already see the result getting better each day.If anyone’s thinking about trying it, I totally recommend it — just make sure to go to a trusted injector ( Dr. Wii ) who understands your face shape and what you want. I’m so happy I did it! 🫶✨
