What are some common signs of aging?

  1. Skin color grayer because of less blood flow.
  2. Fine vertical lines around the mouth.
  3. Skin texture becomes less smooth.
  4. Scars from trauma, acne, or chickenpox more visible.

As a result, the person can look "worn", "tired", or "droopy" from the lack of the lively, rosy hue in their skin color. Furthermore, as we age, there is also a decrease in the firmness and elasticity of the skin due to the decrease in collagen (a protein the body) production.

After an evaluation and consultation with the physician, the skin is cleansed and anesthetized with a numbing cream. A small amount of blood is drawn from the arm and placed in a centrifuge to isolate platelets and growth factors. While this is being processed, microneedling is performed to create microchannels in the skin.Once the PRP is obtained it is spread carefully over the microchannels in the skin.More information regarding microneedling is found in the Microneedling section under Aesthetic Services.

How long does a PRP facial last?

The results are immediate and last for several months. A series of PRP facials is recommended in order to have the best results.
