Platelet-Rich Plasma for Skin Rejuvenation

Platelet-rich plasma, also known as PRP, is a serum created from your own blood, containing a high concentration of natural growth factors and peptides that stimulate natural skin cell growth.

As your skin ages, your skin cells develop more slowly, so PRP therapy sends a much-needed signal to your skin that it is time to produce fresh and healthy cells. PRP has gained popularity among medical providers and celebrities alike.

How does PRP skin rejuvenation work?

PRP can eith be injected into your skin or applied topically after a microneedling or laser treatment. As it enters your skin, it stimulates natural collagen and elastin production, and can improve the smoothing of lines, wrinkles, and creases when combined with microneedling or laser treatments. PRP skin rejuvenation is safe for all facial areas, and can even treat delicate facial zones, such as the area beneath the eyes, to improve dark circles and tear troughs. PRP injections may be used in combination with fillers to improve the appearance of wrinkles, skin laxity, and facial atrophy.

What is PRP skin rejuvenation like to experience?

During your visit, you will undergo a two-part process. During the first step, your blood will be drawn from a vein in your arm. Next, the blood is processed in a medical centrifuge to separate the PRP from the red blood cells. The PRP is then applied following a microneedling or laser treatment, or it is injected into your skin with a fine needle. The experience is generally comfortable and does not involve much pain. A topical anesthetic cream may be used to numb your skin prior to treatment.

What is the recovery time?

If PRP is injected into the skin, downtime is minimal yet slight bruising is possible. In these cases, we offer complimentary laser treatments to quickly improve bruising. If PRP is applied topically to your skin, you can expect some redness and swelling depending on the microneedling or laser treatment performed in combination with PRP. These side effects typically fade away quickly, but the healing process fully depends on the procedure performed prior to PRP application. We will provide you with complete aftercare instructions, but generally, you must:

Use a very gentle cleanser
Avoid any sun exposure during healing and always use sunscreen
Keep your skin hydrated with a medical-grade skin moisturizer
