Platelet rich plasma is a revolutionary antiaging treatment that takes advantage of the healing and regenerative capability of our own blood to rejuvenate our skin.

Over time, the skin loses elasticity due to a decrease in collagen production that can be caused by natural aging, personal habits, and UV exposure. Lax skin creates drooping, wrinkles, and jowls that are equated with aging. This healing elixir, when used by trained medical professionals, is then used to stimulate collagen and elastin production, increasing the fullness and tightness of younger skin.

Some of the first signs of UV damage shows up in the delicate skin around the eyes. PRP is an ideal therapy to address skin laxity around the eyes where other therapies like lasers are not safe to use. Platelet-rich plasma treatments thicken the skin, effectively smoothing away wrinkles and lines, and turning back the hands of time. Increased collagen production can also help with the effects of rosacea, as it improves the tone of the skin.

Since the serum is produced in the patient’s body, there is little chance of adverse reaction as there would be from foreign substances. Platelet Rich Plasma treatments take around three to four weeks to be apparent, and they last for up to 18 months after completing treatments.

The healing properties of the blood components in PRP can be used as a cosmetic treatment for the following:

• Reducing fine lines and wrinkles
• Tightening and toning skin
• Mild collagen and volume loss
• Crow’s feet and dark under eye circles
• Acne scarring
• Rosacea
