PRP PLASMA THERAPY

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is produced from a person's own blood.

It is a concentration of one type of blood cell (platelets), which is critical for blood clotting.

This concentration is injected to an injured or diseased part of a person’s body to accelerate the healing of damaged tendons, ligaments, muscles, bones and joints 

A PRP facial treatment is a more natural cosmetic treatment that involves injecting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) into the face. PRP promotes healing on a cellular level. When injected into the skin, PRP can help improve texture and tone, reduce wrinkles, and encourage new collagen growth.

how does it work?

PRP facial rejuvenation uses a concentration of platelets and plasma from your blood to help heal and renew your skin. The growth factors in platelets are critical for our skin to keep it looking plump & full of elastin.

To start this process, a medical professional will draw a small vial of blood from you. Then they will place the vial in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from the red and white blood cells. This process concentrates the platelets and increases the count many times higher than usual, and the result is impressive. From there, it is ready to address skin concerns.

Your practitioner can either apply the PRP solution topically like a serum, use it in combination with microneedling for better absorption, or inject it into the face similar to other injectables like Botox or filler.

QUESTIONS

  • One of the best things about PRP facial rejuvenation is that almost any man or woman can be considered a great candidate for the procedure. This process is effective for all skin types and ages. PRP facial rejuvenation is an excellent treatment option for individuals just starting to explore anti-aging and skin rejuvenation. Additionally, PRP facials are great for people looking to maintain healthy skin or enhance it before a big event.

  • Pain during a PRP facial treatment with microneedling can vary depending on your individual pain tolerance. Microneedling is generally well-tolerated, but some patients might experience mild discomfort or a sensation similar to light sunburn during the procedure. If you experience intolerable pain, tell your practitioner immediately.

  • We recommend getting PRP injections for at least three months for the best treatment results. Most people see results after three treatments. But, of course, this may vary depending on how well your skin responds to the platelet-rich plasma injections.

  • Technically, no. But after completing an entire treatment plan and with proper aftercare, you should see results for up to three years.

  • After a PRP facial, you can expect some degree of redness, swelling, and minor skin sensitivity. These effects are usually temporary and should go away in a few days. You may want to avoid intense activity or sun exposure for about 2-3 days post-treatment, allowing any redness or swelling to diminish. Makeup should be avoided immediately after the procedure, and it’s recommended to follow the post-treatment care instructions provided by the medical professional.

  • Following your aftercare instructions and regular skincare routine will help you see optimal results about three months after the initial treatment.
