A series of 3-4 treatments is suggested, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, with maintenance sessions every 6-12 months.

Rejuvenates skin and reduces signs of aging by using your body’s own healing factors as a natural filler. These strategic PRP facial injections help smooth fine lines, enhance volume, and improve skin texture and tone. What is a PRP injection for the face?

Frequently Asked Questions
What is PRP injection therapy?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) injection therapy is a regenerative treatment that utilizes components from your own blood to stimulate healing and rejuvenation. The process involves drawing a small amount of blood, concentrating the platelets, and then injecting this platelet-rich plasma into specific areas to address concerns like hair loss or facial aging.
How long does a PRP treatment take?
A full PRP injection session normally takes about 60-90 minutes. This includes the blood draw, platelet-rich plasma processing time, and the injection procedure itself. The actual injection portion usually takes approximately 30 minutes, depending on the size and type of the treatment area.
How many PRP treatments will I need?
For PRP injections for hair loss, most clients achieve the best results with a series of 3-4 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart. For PRP facial injections, 1-3 sessions are typically recommended depending on your aesthetic goals.
Are PRP treatments painful?
We take several steps to ensure your comfort during all PRP injections. Most people report only mild discomfort during the procedure, as we typically use topical numbing cream or local anesthetic to minimize sensation in the treatment area. Many describe the feeling as a series of small pinches or pressure during the injection process.
If I get PRP treatments, how soon will I see results?
Results timing varies depending on your treatment type. For Hair Growth, PRP Injections work with your natural hair growth cycle, so results develop gradually. Most clients begin to notice reduced hair shedding within 2-3 months, with visible improvements in thickness and new growth after 3-6 months.
Are there any side effects associated with PRP treatments?
PRP injections are generally safe with minimal side effects since they use components from your own blood. Temporary side effects may include mild soreness, redness, or slight swelling at the injection sites, typically resolving within 24-48 hours.
