PRP is a procedure aimed at enhancing skin quality and providing a more rejuvenated appearance. This technique utilizes the patient’s own blood plasma, rich in platelets and growth factors, to stimulate cell regeneration and skin rejuvenation.
PRP involves the collection of a small amount of the patient’s blood, which is then centrifuged to separate the platelet-rich plasma. This plasma is then injected into the skin, where the growth factors stimulate collagen production, improving the texture, firmness, and elasticity of the skin. Additionally, PRP can help reduce fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, and enlarged pores, providing a more radiant and rejuvenated appearance.
PRP is recommended for patients who want to improve skin quality, reduce signs of aging, and revitalize the face, neck, décolletage, and hands.
This treatment can be applied to various areas of the body, including the face, neck, décolletage, and hands, where signs of aging are most visible. PRP is highly versatile and can be combined with other aesthetic procedures to enhance results.
Before the procedure, it is important, whenever possible, to avoid the use of medications that may increase the risk of bruising, such as aspirin and anti-inflammatories, a few days before treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to keep the skin clean and makeup-free on the day of the procedure.
The PRP procedure usually takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas to be treated. After the procedure, it is normal to experience mild discomfort and redness in the treated area, but this usually disappears within a few days.
Discomfort during the procedure is minimal and can be relieved with the use of topical anesthetics. Additionally, many patients report a tingling or warmth sensation in the treated area, which is completely normal and quickly dissipates.
Immediately after the treatment, it is normal to experience mild swelling and redness in the treated area, which usually subsides within a few days. The results of PRP are gradually noticed over the following weeks, with progressive improvement in skin quality and a younger and more radiant appearance.
