Discover the power of PRP!
Not every aesthetic treatment involves the use of surgical procedures or questionable formulas. PRP rejuvenation is a cutting-edge procedure that involves using your blood plasma to revitalize your skin and body. The simplicity and versatility of this treatment allow us to easily apply it to treat several issues, from rough skin texture to hair loss.

What is PRP (platelet-rich plasma)?
PRP is a substance made up of platelets extracted from your blood. Only a small blood sample is needed to retrieve and isolate these nourishing components. When reinjected into your body, platelets release numerous growth factors that respond to tissue injury and promote healing. PRP has been safely used in hundreds of thousands of procedures worldwide.
What can I expect during treatments?
During a short in-office visit, a small amount of your blood is drawn into a vacuum collection tube containing a separating gel. The tube is then placed into a centrifuge and spun to isolate the PRP. The red and white blood cells are displaced from the PRP and are located at the bottom of the collection tube.
The PRP that remains on top is ready for clinical use. In some cases, PRP is applied topically, in other cases, it is injected. This procedure takes less than 30 minutes, and only a small amount of blood is required. There are no foreign components, which eliminates the risk of adverse reactions. This procedure is FDA-cleared.
