Platelet-Rich Plasma
Dr. Farzaneh is proud to offer his patients platelet-rich plasma injections as a non-surgical rejuvenation procedure that uses your body’s own natural blood cells to restore a radiant and youthful facial glow.
What is platelet-rich plasma?
Platelet-rich plasma, also known as PRP, is an extract of your blood that contains added platelets, growth factors and proteins that aid in healing. When it is injected back into the skin, it initiates your body’s regenerative properties and stimulates collagen production, reducing wrinkles, adding youthful volume and dramatically improving the quality and appearance of your skin.
An Overview of Platelet-Rich Plasma Treatment
Prior to your treatment, we will collect and process a small amount of your blood, separating the platelet-rich plasma to be used during the procedure. From there, we will clean and numb the skin being treated before injecting the PRP back into your face using a very fine needle.
In terms of recovery, there is no downtime associated with this procedure and you will be able to resume your normal activities immediately. Although some patients may experience some redness, tenderness and swelling for a day or two, these side effects will be minimal and should subside very quickly.
Results
Platelet-rich plasma is extremely popular among discerning patients because it offers incredible anti-aging and regenerative benefits. In Dr. Farzaneh’s state-of-the-art TrueCare facilities, he has successfully used PRP to help his patients:
- Reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
- Tighten and tone the skin.
- Restore volume and collagen loss.
- Reduce acne scarring.
- Minimize crow’s feet and dark under eye circles.
- Treat rosacea.
The results of your PRP treatment will emerge gradually and over time. Within a few weeks, your skin will appear more hydrated, and you’ll see visibly improved tone and texture. Within three to six weeks, new collagen and blood vessels will grow, and within three to six months, you’ll see a substantial reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. A long-lasting facial rejuvenation treatment, you can expect the full results of your PRP treatment to endure for up to one and a half years.
