Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a revolutionary technique utilizing a client's own blood to restore facial volume, diminish fine lines, wrinkles and folds, improve acne scarring and stimulate hair growth and thickness. The process of obtaining PRP starts with a simple blood draw, the blood is then spun in a centrifuge, the whole blood components are separated from the plasma / platelets to create PRP (otherwise known as Liquid Gold!), the PRP is then injected back into the body in predetermined locations including the tear troughs (under-eye hollows), scalp (hair restoration) or microneedled into the skin.
