What Are The Benefits Of PRP Therapy For Facial and body Rejuvenation?

What is PRP therapy?

(AKA “vampire facial”)

PRP, which stands for platelet-rich plasma, is a natural component of the blood.

PRP contains a number of proteins and has powerful regenerative properties, making it an effective tool for treating certain signs of aging, and hair loss

How does PRP for facial rejuvenation work?

PRP therapy for the face works by triggering the body’s healing and regenerative properties, boosting the production of collagen and elastin, and rejuvenating the skin for a firmer, more youthful look.

During a PRP treatment clients will have a small tube of blood drawn from their arms.

The blood will be separated in a centrifuge to isolate the PRP.

Over the course of several weeks or months, the PRP will stimulate the body’s healing processes, helping to reduce common signs of facial aging, such as:

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Skin laxity
• Sun damage
• Dark spots
• Age spots
• Dull skin
• Uneven skin tone
• Softens crow’s feet
• Diminishing dark circles under the eyes
• Rough skin texture
• Acne scarring
• Restores collagen and volume loss
• Plumps and tightens sagging skin

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF PRP FOR TREATING THE UNDER-EYE AREA?

PRP injections in the under-eye area are an excellent treatment for addressing fine lines and wrinkles in this region for optimum rejuvenation. PRP contains growth factors that stimulate collagen production when injected into the skin. By stimulating new collagen production, platelet-rich plasma helps tighten loose skin around the eyes to lessen the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles like crow’s feet, while also eliminating bags underneath the eyes.

PRP under eye treatment is also an excellent way to treat dark circles as they increase blood flow

Why should I get PRP therapy for my face or body ?

Some of the most compelling benefits of PRP for skin rejuvenation include:

• Nonsurgical:

There are no incisions, lasers, scarring, or recovery time associated with PRP.

• Quick and convenient:

PRP therapy for the face can typically be completed in 30 minutes or less.

• Natural treatment:

Patients seeking a more natural alternative to other facial treatments may be excited to learn that PRP simply uses a patient’s own blood. Because of this, there is little to no risk of an adverse or allergic reaction.

• Long-lasting results:

Many patients enjoy their PRP skin rejuvenation results for up to a year or longer before a repeat treatment may be needed.

Puffiness and discoloration around the eyes are less visible with as little as one treatment. While the results are not permanent, these injections can help patients looking for a more long-term option when it comes to looking youthful and refreshed, especially when compared to other injectable services

The Difference Between Microneedling and PRP Injections:

Microneedling is a quick collagen inducing treatment which uses a dermaroller or microneedling pen to penetrate the skin with small needles.

The platelet rich plasma (PRP) is then applied topically to the skin,with the assumption it will be absorbed from the small injuries created on the face by the dermaroller or microneedling pen.

With the PRP injection the platelets are directly injected into the tissues.

 When PRP is placed back into the skin, it initiates a localized growth factor response increasing your chances of producing more collagen in the targeted areas and therefore giving off better results.

Normally a course of 3-4 treatments are recommended a month apart to achieve the best results.
