Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections have been used since the 1970s to help athletes heal quicker from injuries. As we age, our collagen and elastic production begins to decrease and we notice thinner skin and volume loss. PRP is rich in stem cells and growth factors and injecting it stimulates our body to naturally produce more collagen and elastin. More collagen and elastin=brighter, tighter, and thicker skin! The best part about this procedure is that we do not inject anything foreign into your body. We draw your blood, spin it down to PRP, and re-inject it into your body! PRP is naturally absorbed by your body over time.

 

 

PRP INJECTIONS FOR UNDER EYES:

PRP injections do wonders for someone wanting to improve their under eye area. PRP will not cause lumps and bumps like under eye filler can, and PRP will actually help improve your under eye area long term. A patient looking to improve their under eye are should have 2-3 PRP injections spaced 2-3 months apart. After the initial injections a patient will only have to be treated every 9-12 months for maintenance. Tissue regeneration from PRP injections will continue for months after the initial treatment. 

​

Most common complaints for seeking treatment: under eye hollows, pigmentation and dark circles, wrinkles and loss of elasticity, and crepey skin texture.

​

PRP INJECTIONS FOR HAIR LOSS:

Millions of people experience male or female patterned baldness or thinning hair as we age, hormones change, etc. PRP is injected into the scalp where the thinning hair is occuring. The PRP stimulates the growth phase of your hair follicle. 

 

​IS IT PAINFUL?

Specially compounded numbing cream will be used on the area of the PRP injections prior to the treatment. The majority of patients report minimal to mild discomfort.​

 

HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?

Patients will begin seeing results after 3-4 treatments. It is recommended that a patient have 3-4 treatments spaced 1 month apart for optimal results. After that we recommend doing a maintenance treatment every 6 months-1 year.
