Can you benefit from PRP...
Plate Rich Plasma (PRP) is the part of your whole blood that contains growth factors, healing agents, collagen building proteins, and anti-inflammatory precursors.
We can harness PRP for its REGENERATIVE properties to improve the tone, texture, scars, thickness, pigmentation, and tightness of skin. We can also use it to regrow hair and prevent hair from falling (alopecia).
PRP is obtained by drawing your blood, adding the necessary activating agents, and then removing the straw-colored component of the spun blood (see below).
It can then be injected into the skin/scalp or applied transcutaneously via needling.
A Series of PRP sessions via injection or needling will...
1: Improve tone and pigmentation
PRP can be used to even out the skin tone and improve sun damage. It can be used as an adjunct to treat melasma.
2: Improve fine lines
Both injected and needled PRP will improve the fine lines of the skin by activating a healing and regenerative cascade.
3: Fix imperfections in the skin
PRP will reverse the aging process and improve the appearance of skin blemishes. The anti-inflammatory elements will reverse sun damage over time. We often use it for stretch marks, for example.
4: Build collagen and thicken skin
Due to its capacity to build collagen this is a great option for patients that do not want fillers or agents such as Sculptra. We use PRP commonly in the cheeks, under the eyes, neck, and décolletage.
5. Help grow hair on the scalp
PRP has a long track record of safely growing hair on the scalp. According to studies, it has an overall response rate of 70% to maintain or grow hair in both men and women. We often combine this with other treatments/medications for hair loss.
HOW DO WE GET PRP INTO THE SKIN?
Traditional Injection with a 30G needle into skin or scalp.
We can mix the PRP with collagen builders to boost results. It can be injected into the skin ANYWHERE on the body.
Microneedling- transcutaneous delivery of PRP.
We can mix the PRP with additional agents such as: botox, hyaluronic acid (collagen growth), and transexamic acid (pigmentation control).
AQUAGOLD epidermal only transcutaneous delivery.
A device with very fine and short needles for epidermal delivery only.
This is often used before major events to make the face glow with minimal downtime (4-6 hours of redness after the procedure).
Appointments are available in: Beverly Hills, Newport Beach, and NYC
