Who is a Candidate for PRP?

The rejuvenating properties of PRP injections make it a great option for those who want to improve their overall skin texture, address fine lines and wrinkles, plump up hollowed areas of the face, and smooth out acne and surgical scars. PRP treatments are also great for those seeking long-lasting treatment with minimal maintenance appointments. Many patients only require annual touch-ups after the initial treatments to achieve the desired look.

What is PRP Treatment Like?

The process of facial skin rejuvenation is very similar to the process of PRP for filler. A nurse practitioner will take a small vial of blood and place it in a centrifuge, where a high concentration of platelets and plasma is isolated. An experienced provider such as Dana Protomastro will then inject this concentration under the skin using a fine-gauge needle.

Recovery From PRP

PRP facial rejuvenation is a minimally invasive procedure that requires little to no downtime. Some redness, swelling, or bruising may occur but should subside in a few hours. Most patients can return to normal activities 1-3 days later, if not immediately after treatment. Over time, skin concerns such as acne scars and uneven skin tone will diminish as the blood cells stimulate collagen production.
