PRP Injections
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is extracted from a patient’s blood sample and placed into a centrifuge. The centrifuge spins the sample and separates the blood and PRP. PRP contains growth factors that can trigger cell reproduction and stimulate tissue regeneration or healing in the treated area. PRP stimulates collagen growth and can provide an effective anti-aging treatment.

Most commonly, PRP injections are placed under the eyes to help with dark circles. PRP can also be injected into scar tissue to stimulate healing and the scalp to stimulate hair growth.

PRP facial injections are one of the lowest risk treatments because the process involves injecting a substance sourced from your own body. Mild bruising, swelling or redness can occur at the injection site but usually resolves quickly.
