PRP Injections

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) injections use your body’s own growth factors to support collagen production and improve overall skin quality. The treatment is performed in-office and typically takes less than an hour.

PRP is a natural option for rejuvenation and is commonly used to improve skin tone and texture, soften fine lines, and support hair restoration. Because it uses your own plasma, it is well tolerated and offers a low-risk, minimally invasive approach to treatment.

Your PRP treatment is designed to be simple, comfortable, and minimally invasive:

1. Pre-Treatment: Patients should avoid alcohol, herbal supplements that may increase bruising, and NSAIDs such as ibuprofen or Motrin for at least one week prior to treatment.
2. Preparation: On the day of your appointment, a small amount of your blood is drawn and placed into a centrifuge, which spins at high speed to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other components.
3. Treatment: The treatment area is cleansed, and the PRP is carefully injected using a fine needle or cannula.
4. Aftercare: You will receive detailed post-treatment instructions, and a follow-up appointment is typically scheduled 4 to 6 weeks later.

Because PRP is derived from the patient’s own plasma very little risks are associated with this procedure. Possible side effects are tenderness at the site, swelling and bruising. These are all normal and temporary.

PRP is an excellent treatment for improving overall skin quality and supporting natural collagen production. It is especially beneficial for patients experiencing loss of firmness, acne scars, or early signs of aging. PRP can also be used for hair restoration, helping to support hair growth and improve thickness in areas of thinning.

PRP treatments can be performed as a series or as a standalone treatment, typically spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments are often recommended once or twice per year to support long-term results.

PRP injections are an excellent option for patients looking to improve concerns such as acne scars, mild volume loss, and visible signs of aging. They are also a great choice for individuals experiencing hair thinning who want to support natural hair growth and improve overall hair density.

Because PRP uses your body’s own growth factors, most patients are good candidates for this treatment. However, individuals with active skin conditions such as rashes, active acne, or psoriasis in the treatment area may need to delay treatment until the skin has fully healed. A consultation with your provider will help determine if PRP is right for you.

Costs for PRP injections vary since each treatment plan is personalized. Factors like the number of sessions needed and whether you’re targeting skin or hair restoration will influence pricing, which is always explained clearly during your consultation.

The benefits of PRP injections can last up to 12 months, with many patients continuing to see improvements in skin quality or hair density over time.

Because PRP works by stimulating your body’s natural regeneration process, results develop gradually and can be maintained with periodic follow-up treatments.

One of the biggest advantages of PRP injections is minimal downtime. You might notice redness or slight swelling at the injection sites, but these effects are short-lived, and most patients return to normal routines quickly.

Combining PRP injections with other services often enhances results. For example, pairing PRP with Microneedling encourages even more collagen production, while Dermal Fillers can restore volume alongside PRP’s skin-renewing benefits.
