PRP Therapy & Microneedling Q&A

What is platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy?

PRP therapy is a medical treatment that utilizes your own blood to promote healing and rejuvenation. The process of PRP therapy involves the following steps:

Blood draw

Your practitioner draws a small amount of blood, usually from your arm, similar to a routine blood test.

Centrifugation

The blood sample is placed in a centrifuge, which spins at high speeds to separate the platelets and plasma from the other blood components.

PRP preparation

The concentrated PRP, now rich in growth factors, is prepared for injection.

Injection

Your provider injects the PRP into the targeted areas using fine needles. The growth factors in the PRP stimulate cell turnover and collagen production, leading to the rejuvenation of the treated area.

PRP therapy is a safe and effective treatment that leverages your body’s own healing mechanisms to enhance beauty and stimulate hair growth, making it a popular choice if you’re seeking natural cosmetic improvements.

What cosmetic issues can PRP therapy treat?

PRP therapy is versatile and can address a range of cosmetic concerns, including:

Hair loss

PRP injections can stimulate hair follicles, promoting hair growth and preventing further hair loss.

Skin rejuvenation

PRP therapy can improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance by stimulating collagen production.

Fine lines and wrinkles

PRP therapy can be used with microneedling to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, providing a more youthful look.

Acne scars

The treatment can help diminish the appearance of acne scars and other types of scarring.

Dark circles under the eyes

PRP therapy can improve the appearance of dark circles, making the skin look fresher and more vibrant.

How does PRP therapy enhance your beauty?

PRP therapy enhances your beauty by harnessing your body’s natural healing processes. The growth factors in PRP stimulate the production of new cells and collagen, which are essential for maintaining healthy, youthful skin. 

This natural approach to rejuvenation means that the results look subtle and natural, without the need for synthetic substances or invasive procedures. In addition, because PRP is derived from your own blood, there’s a lower risk of allergic reactions or complications.
