PRP for Facial Rejuvenation
What is PRP Facial Rejuvenation?
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) facial rejuvenation is a non surgical treatment that uses your body’s own blood components to support skin renewal and improve overall skin quality.
PRP is made up of two key elements: plasma and platelets. Plasma is the liquid portion of the blood, while platelets play an important role in healing and tissue repair. Platelets contain growth factors that help stimulate cell reproduction and support tissue regeneration in the treated area. During the procedure, a small vial of blood is drawn and processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelet rich plasma. This PRP is then carefully injected into the sub dermal layers of the skin to help improve texture, tone, and skin vitality over time.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?
PRP facial rejuvenation is commonly performed as a series of treatments to achieve optimal results. The number of sessions needed varies depending on individual skin concerns and treatment goals.
Because PRP works by stimulating natural skin regeneration, results develop gradually over time. During your complimentary consultation at Stratica Dermatology, your provider will assess your skin and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Is PRP Facial Rejuvenation Painful?
Discomfort during PRP facial treatments varies depending on the treatment area and individual sensitivity. A topical numbing cream is applied prior to treatment to help improve comfort. Most patients describe the sensation as mild pressure or brief pinching. The treatment is generally well tolerated, and any discomfort is temporary.
Who Is a Good Candidate for PRP Facial Rejuvenation?
PRP facial rejuvenation is suitable for individuals looking to improve overall skin quality, texture, and tone. It may be a good option for those experiencing early signs of aging, dull skin, or uneven texture.
A consultation is required to determine if PRP is appropriate, as results can vary depending on skin condition and individual response.
