PRP SKIN REJUVENTION
Platelet-rich plasma therapy (PRP), the vampire facial or the blood facial is a treatment that uses your own blood to recharge your skin. Your blood is drawn by standard blood draw, then put into a centrifuge where it is spun to separate the red blood cells from the plasma. The plasma, rich in platelets, growth and healing factors is then applied during your microneedling session or injected into lines, wrinkles and folds to restore volume and rejuvenate the skin’s appearance. Historically, PRP has been used in orthopedic medicine, dentistry and reconstructive surgery to help speed up wound healing and recovery. Now it’s one of the most popular treatments in aesthetic medicine to help damaged, aging skin grow new collagen and elastin for beautiful, youthful results.

Frequently Asked Questions About PRP SKIN REJUVENATION

WILL THERE BE DOWN TIME?
Patients may except minor swelling, bruising and redness for 3-4 days after their treatment. Patients may also experience some dryness and flaking of the skin as they are healing. Often side-effects are mild and resolve quickly, however it is always best to plan your treatments around vacations and special events by at least 2 weeks.
IS THERE A PREP PHASE BEFORE MY Facial?

PRP prep may include increasing water intake, increasing nutrient status with dietary modification, nutrient supplementation or IV Nutrient Therapy alongside supporting sleep, energy and stress levels.
