If you are looking for a fast and convenient treatment to get rid of skin blemishes, you should look into platelet-rich plasma therapy. PRP therapy can smooth your skin and restore it to its youthful appearance, strength, and elasticity. The team at DB Aesthetics is here to explain everything you need to know about this amazing and affordable skin treatment.
Understanding Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
So, what is PRP therapy?
PRP therapy is a type of injectable treatment that aims to stimulate the body’s normal reconstructive mechanisms to repair skin cells and reduce imperfections and blemishes. PRP contains two components in human blood: plasma and platelets.
Platelets are a special kind of red blood cell the body releases when injured. Platelets release blood clotting factors and also stimulate tissue healing and regeneration at the site of injuries. Without platelets, your body wouldn’t be able to heal from injury.
How Does PRP Therapy Work?
PRP mixture contains plasma with a higher concentration of platelets than in the body naturally. Clinicians create PRP injections by taking blood from the patient and separating the plasma and platelets using a centrifuge.
PRP sessions are fairly straightforward. After taking your blood and preparing the plasma, the clinician will directly inject the mixture into the specified area. The technician may use an ultrasound to help them place the needle properly. Most PRP microneedling sessions will take under an hour.
For optimal results, most patients will get additional injections four to six weeks apart. Most PRP treatment regimens are three shots, but sometimes, a fourth shot may be necessary for maximum results. Side effects of PRP are rare but might include minor bruising and bleeding at the injection site.
Benefits of PRP Micro Infusion
Below are just a few of the benefits of getting platelet-rich plasma therapy.
Reduce Wrinkles
PRP micro-infusions primarily increase cell turnover and healing, which can significantly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in the face, jowls, and neck.
Reduce Discoloration
PRP therapy can also reduce skin discoloration, like sunspots and dark spots. Collagen production from PRP therapy can reduce hyperpigmentation and other skin discoloration conditions, such as melasma.
Increase Collagen Production
Another incredible benefit of PRP micro-infusions is it increases collagen production. Collagen is the molecule that is responsible for the skin’s stretchiness and durability. As one ages, collagen production decreases, which contributes to loose skin and wrinkles. Increasing collagen production can make skin tougher and restore its original appearance.
Firmer Skin
Are you tired of sagging skin around your eyes and jaw? PRP micro-infusions can improve skin elasticity and tighten it, reducing skin sagging and giving you a more youthful appearance.
Drug-Free
One key aspect of PRP is that the injectable comes from the patient’s own body, so there is no risk of complications. PRP is NOT a drug — it is simply a concentrated form of what is already in your body. You don’t have to worry about drug side effects and harmful drug interactions with other medications you are taking.
Affordable
Since it is a non-surgical and non-invasive treatment, PRP is highly affordable compared to other kinds of cosmetic treatments, such as surgeries or expensive medication. The affordable cost is an additional benefit, as many health insurance plans don’t cover PRP infusions.
Youthful Skin: Minimizing Fine Lines and Wrinkles
As you age, the skin produces less oil and becomes fragile and less elastic. Fat deposits in the face also decline, leading the skin to create sharp lines and wrinkles.
PRP therapy is the go-to treatment for reducing wrinkles and lines from aging. PRP therapy restores natural collagen production and stimulates skin rejuvenation through the production of natural oils, like how healthy, youthful skin should.
Radiant Complexion: Enhancing Skin Texture and Tone
Age also causes the skin to lose its natural luster. Changes in melanin production can cause blotches, and various skin conditions can create patches of discoloration. PRP can address these kinds of skin tone issues by replacing damaged skin cells with healthy ones. The result is glowing skin that retains its youthful texture and tone.
Revitalize Your Tresses: Improving Hair Health and Volume
PRP is not just for your skin, either. Studies have found that PRP can also be an effective treatment for female and male-pattern baldness. PRP releases platelets that produce growth factors, which also contribute to hair and nail growth. PRP can restore volume and improve hair texture as an alternative to other hair loss treatments, such as hair plugs or transplants.
