What is a PRP Facial?
A PRP facial is a minimally invasive treatment that utilizes the growth factors in platelet-rich plasma to promote skin renewal. The procedure begins with a small blood draw, from which the platelet-rich plasma is separated and then applied to the skin, often in combination with microneedling. This allows the PRP to penetrate deep into the skin, enhancing the body’s natural ability to repair fine lines, acne scars, uneven skin tone, and skin laxity. Over time, the treatment boosts collagen and elastin production, leading to a smoother and more even complexion.
Candidates for a PRP Facial
A PRP facial is ideal for individuals seeking natural skin rejuvenation. It benefits those who want to improve skin texture and tone, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, minimize acne scars and pigmentation, and enhance skin hydration and elasticity. Since the treatment uses the patient’s platelets, the risk of side effects is minimal. A consultation with a member of Dr. Daraei’s team will help determine if a PRP facial is the best option for you based on your skincare goals.
PRP Facial Procedure
The PRP facial is a multi-step process typically taking about an hour to complete. A member of Dr. Daraei’s team will begin by drawing a small amount of blood, which is processed in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma. Once the PRP is prepared, it is applied to the skin, often following microneedling to enhance absorption and stimulate collagen production. This combination encourages natural tissue repair and rejuvenation, leading to smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin.
PRP Facial Recovery
Recovery from a PRP facial is minimal, with most patients experiencing mild redness and sensitivity similar to a sunburn for a day or two. Mild flaking or dryness may occur as the skin heals, but this is temporary. A member of Dr. Daraei’s team will provide aftercare instructions, including skincare and sun protection recommendations, to optimize your results. While some improvements are visible within a few days, collagen production increases over the following weeks, leading to ongoing skin renewal and enhanced results.
