PRP (platelet-rich plasma) treatment is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that involves using the patient’s own blood to stimulate natural healing and rejuvenation of the skin. The treatment uses the patient’s own blood, which is processed to extract a concentration of platelets and growth factors, which are then injected into the skin.
How Does PRP Work?
During the procedure, a small amount of blood is drawn from the patient and placed into a centrifuge, which separates the platelet-rich plasma from the other components of the blood. The resulting PRP solution is then injected into specific areas of the skin, where it stimulates collagen production and promotes the growth of new skin cells.
What Does PRP Treat?
PRP treatment is commonly used to treat a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. It is also used to promote hair growth and treat conditions such as alopecia.
Benefits of PRP
One of the benefits of PRP treatment is that it is a minimally invasive procedure that uses the patient’s own blood, which reduces the risk of allergic reactions or other adverse effects. The treatment is performed within our office and typically takes less than an hour to complete.
Another advantage of PRP treatment is that it produces long-lasting results. The increased collagen production and new cell growth stimulated by the treatment continue to improve the appearance and texture of the skin for several months after the procedure. Patients may require multiple treatments to achieve the desired results.
Is PRP Right for You?
While PRP treatment is generally considered safe, it may not be suitable for everyone. Patients with certain medical conditions, such as blood disorders or skin infections, may not be eligible for the procedure. Patients should consult with the team at Diva Lux Spa to determine if PRP treatment is right for them and to discuss any potential risks or limitations associated with the procedure.
