A PRP facelift is a natural, non-invasive treatment that uses the patient’s own Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), not stem cells, to help reduce wrinkles and fine lines for a younger-looking complexion. If you’re looking for our stem cell-based facial rejuvenation treatment instead, see Facial Restoration Stem Cell Treatment.

Using the body’s own healing strengths, this treatment stimulates the production of collagen and hyaluronic acid to help reduce signs of aging without surgery or downtime.

What Is the PRP Facelift?

  • Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a concentrated form of platelets harvested from the patient’s own blood. This concentrated form is injected into the treatment area to help promote healing, reduce inflammation, and support cell regeneration.
  • The procedure involves drawing the patient’s blood, concentrating it in a lab using centrifugation, and re-injecting it into the targeted area.
  • PRP is intended to help increase collagen, angiogenesis, and the fibrin matrix, and to support the formation of new cells that help improve the texture, tightness, and youthfulness of the skin.
  • Because the platelets used are derived from the patient’s own blood, there is no risk of cell rejection or infection from a foreign source.
  • PRP does not cause cancer or tumors and has anti-inflammatory properties that can improve the skin’s appearance and reduce the look of acne scars.

The PRP Facelift Procedure

  • The PRP facelift is a minimally invasive procedure that starts with a blood draw from the arm.
  • The blood is taken to a lab for centrifugation, which separates serum, platelets, and red and white blood cells.
  • The resulting concentration of platelets and growth factors is used to help rejuvenate the skin.
  • It is offered as a way to help restore a more youthful appearance without undergoing surgery.

Blood is drawn from the arm and processed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets and growth factors, which are then injected into the treatment area of the face.

Because the platelets come from the patient’s own blood, there is no risk of cell rejection or infection from a foreign source, and PRP has not been shown to cause cancer or tumors.
