Plasma is the liquid component of blood, which contains a concentrated quantity of platelets. These tiny cell fragments contain growth factors like proteins, cytokines, and stem cells, which facilitate cell production and tissue regeneration. Concentrated PRP encompasses three to five times more platelets than regular circulating blood.
Since PRP injections come from your blood, this treatment eliminates the risk of side effects like rejection or an allergic reaction. It is safer than synthetic chemicals or surgery and requires no healing time.
Your body will produce less collagen and elastin as you get older, resulting in reduced facial volume and thinner skin. The loss of structural proteins can lead to the development of fine lines and wrinkles, a dull complexion, and the appearance of dark undereye circles, which may give you a constantly fatigued or sad appearance. PRP injections address these common signs of aging and restore a healthy complexion.
Combining PRP therapies with other treatments can enhance your appearance and boost the effects of other anti-aging treatments, like microneedling, dermal fillers, neurotoxins, and laser treatments. It resstores a youthful look by improving:

To prepare for your PRP treatment, please refrain from taking Advil, ibuprofen, aspirin or any other elective platelet inhibitor, such as vitamin supplements. Come to your appointment with clean, moisturized, makeup-free skin. One of our expert injectors will review the details of your PRP skin rejuvenation treatment and answer your questions.
PRP procedures are quick and take place in our comfortable, well-appointed office. Discuss pain concerns with your injector before beginning treatment. You can request a topical numbing cream if necessary.
PRP treatment for skin rejuvenation begins with a simple blood draw from your arm, just like you would expect during a routine checkup. The vial of drawn blood goes into a machine called a centrifuge, which spins rapidly to separate the PRP from the other components.
We’ll inject the concentrated PRP into areas like your face, tear troughs, or hands to support cell growth and tissue regeneration. Depending on the targeted areas, your PRP procedure will take approximately 45 to 60 minutes. Following treatment, mild swelling, soreness, or bruising in the treatment area and withdrawal site may occur.
Typically, patients see optimal results from a series of three to five PRP skin rejuvenation treatments scheduled four to six weeks apart. Our experts will help you determine a cadence that fits your needs.
You can quickly return to most of your usual daily activities after PRP treatment. Light swelling, bruising, or soreness will fade in a few days.
Following PRP skin rejuvenation treatment, you should avoid:
Your injector may give you additional aftercare instructions to follow if you undergo additional skin rejuvenation treatments simultaneously.
Since PRP injections gradually stimulate healing, you shouldn’t expect to see an immediate improvement after your initial treatment. Typically, changes will become evident within four to six weeks after your final PRP session.
To ensure the best outcomes, you must adhere to our expert recommendations regarding sun exposure, skin cleansing, and refraining from physical activities.
Our team loves helping our patients rejuvenate and age more gracefully. We look forward to your consultation to help you discover how innovative PRP treatments revive your skin and hair growth for optimal results.
