Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
As we age, our skin undergoes various changes due to factors such as reduced collagen production, decreased elasticity, and environmental stressors. These changes can result in fine lines, wrinkles, and an overall aged appearance. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections offer a natural and innovative solution to rejuvenate the skin without the need for invasive procedures.
PRP injections leverage your body’s own healing and regenerative abilities to address aging skin concerns. Platelets in your blood contain growth factors and bioactive proteins that stimulate tissue repair and collagen production. By concentrating these platelets and injecting them into targeted areas of the skin, we can harness their rejuvenating properties to enhance skin texture, reduce wrinkles, and promote a more youthful glow.

How PRP works
The PRP procedure is a multi-step process that begins with a simple blood draw. The drawn blood is then processed using a specialized centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other components. This concentrated PRP is then prepared for injection into the treatment area.
Before the injections, a topical numbing cream is applied to ensure your comfort during the procedure. The PRP is carefully injected into specific areas of concern, such as around the eyes, mouth, or forehead. The growth factors in PRP stimulate collagen and elastin production, leading to improved skin texture and a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles.
The procedure typically takes about 30-45 minutes, and there is minimal to no downtime associated with it. Some redness or mild swelling at the injection sites is normal and usually subsides within a day or two. Over the following weeks and months, you’ll notice gradual improvements in your skin’s texture, tone, and overall appearance.
The results of PRP injections are natural-looking and long-lasting. While individual experiences may vary, many patients enjoy smoother, firmer skin for up to a year after the initial treatment. To maintain and enhance the results, we may recommend periodic maintenance sessions.
Platelet Rich Plasma injections offer a holistic approach to skin rejuvenation, as they utilize your body’s own resources to achieve youthful, radiant skin. Whether you’re looking to address early signs of aging or maintain your skin’s vitality, PRP injections provide a safe and effective option for both women and men.
