The PRP face treatment utilizes your body’s own healing properties to revitalize and enhance your skin, while effectively addressing a range of skin concerns. It’s essentially microneedling with PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) and is also known as the “Vampire Facial”. When performing a standard microneedling treatment, PRP is added to promote faster healing of the skin, and helps to further treatment outcomes.
By harnessing the power of your body’s natural healing process, PRP face treatment offers a host of benefits. It can minimize the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars, improve skin elasticity and firmness, and reduce hyperpigmentation and sun damage. Additionally, PRP stimulates the production of new blood vessels, enhancing overall skin health and promoting a more vibrant complexion.
How It Works
The process begins with a simple blood draw, from which we extract the platelet-rich plasma. These platelets are rich in growth factors and essential proteins that promote tissue regeneration and stimulate collagen production.
Once prepared, the PRP is carefully applied to your skin, penetrating deeply to stimulate cellular repair, improve skin tone and texture, and restore a youthful glow. The treatment is minimally invasive, non-surgical, and requires no downtime, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately.

Benefits of PRP Face Treatment
- Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: PRP stimulates collagen production, which helps to diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and crow's feet, resulting in smoother and more youthful-looking skin.
- Improves Skin Tone and Texture: The growth factors present in PRP promote cellular regeneration, leading to improved skin tone and texture. It can help minimize the appearance of acne scars, uneven skin texture, and rough patches, resulting in a smoother and more refined complexion.
- Enhances Skin Elasticity and Firmness: By stimulating collagen and elastin production, PRP helps to improve skin elasticity and firmness. This can lead to tighter, more lifted skin, reducing sagging and promoting a more youthful appearance.
- Reduces Hyperpigmentation and Sun Damage: PRP can help lighten and reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation, sunspots, and sun damage. It promotes a more even skin tone and can improve overall skin radiance.
- Revitalizes Dull and Tired Skin: PRP face treatment can rejuvenate dull and tired-looking skin by promoting cell turnover and enhancing blood flow. This results in a brighter, fresher, and more revitalized complexion.
- No surgery or needles. Minimal downtime required. Return to normal activities the same day with minimal discomfort.
- Long-lasting and gradual results. Continuous collagen stimulation for ongoing skin rejuvenation and toning over 6-18 months.
