PRP Facials
What are PRP Facials?
You've probably heard of platelet-rich plasma facials, also known as PRP facials. The basic process begins with a technician drawing whole blood and then using a centrifuge to separate out the red cells. The remaining platelet-rich plasma is what's used in the facial process. Simply put, a PRP facial uses your own blood's platelets and plasma on your face. The natural chemicals in your own PRP are slathered onto your face and then micro needled into the skin during a short procedure. Once the plasma is in, it begins to do its work of rejuvenating your entire face, tightening wrinkled areas, and smoothing the overall look. It's able to do that because PRP's essential chemical components stimulate collagen growth. Some people opt to have just one facial while others undergo a regular series of procedures. The more often you have a PRP facial, the longer the results of each treatment will last, which is about three to six months.
What are the key advantages of PRP facials and why are they so popular?
They truly transform the look of your skin in positive ways. There's no chance for an allergic reaction because the plasma comes from your own body. Pain and discomfort is minimal and the procedure is short.
A medical team member takes a small sample of your blood and places it in a centrifuge to isolate plasma and platelets from red cells. The red cells are not used in the procedure. This protein-rich plasma is what helps stimulate collagen production when infused into the skin of your face. We use a topical cream to numb your skin about 20 minutes prior to treatment. The plasma is spread all over your face before the next step of the process. The medical technician uses a micro-needling device on your forehead, cheeks, and other parts of your face to make sure the protein-rich substance is able to travel deep into the skin. Micro-needing itself helps to stimulate collagen growth, so when used alongside an infusion of PRP, you're getting a double effect of collagen-boosting. When it's over, you might notice a bit of superficial pain on your face and minor bruising from the micro-needling technique.
Results take a while to show up, especially after the very first facial you get. But most of our clients notice a generalized tightening of the skin within a few days, a glow and fullness to the entire face, and just an overall healthier look. Results can last several months. That's why many people choose to have PRP facials a few times per year to maintain the results for anti-aging purposes. Initially, it's best to have about 4-6 treatments at two-week intervals to deal with scarring, skin damage, and problem areas.
Our clients have noticed many benefits from this treatment. Not only does it help the body create new elastin and collagen but it can virtually do away with wrinkles, acne scars, lines, stretch marks, and other types of scars. Plus, a PRP facial can deliver pronounced effects with better skin texture and tone. PRP facial experts at our clinic use the Derma pen micro-needling device. It enables our team members to perform the entire procedure with minimal pain and in a short period of time. The Derma pen essentially "stamps" the skin with very tiny needles. This unique treatment causes the body's natural processes to go into effect. Skin begins to produce more collagen and elastin in response to the needling. Simultaneously, the body also responds to the platelet-rich plasma and works with it to create additional collagen and elastin.
