PRP Facials: Revitalize Your Skin with a Natural Treatment

How Does a PRP Facial Work?

The PRP facial is a three-step process with little to no downtime afterward:

1. Blood Draw – A small sample of your blood is taken, just like in a routine blood test.
2. Plasma Extraction – The sample is placed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma, which contains powerful growth factors.
3. Microneedling & PRP Application – The PRP is reintroduced into the skin using microneedling, which creates tiny micro-channels that enhance absorption and stimulate healing.

The American Academy of Dermatology Association (AAD) explains that PRP is rich in growth factors, which play a crucial role in skin regeneration, helping to improve elasticity, texture, and overall skin health. PRP promotes collagen growth which reduces wrinkles, giving you a fresher, more youthful complexion—without the risks of synthetic fillers or invasive procedures.

What Are the Benefits of a PRP Facial?

Patients love PRP facials because they deliver natural-looking results without extensive downtime. Here’s what you can expect:

• Smoother Skin: Fine lines and wrinkles fade as collagen production increases.
• Even Skin Tone & Texture: PRP helps brighten skin and reduce pigmentation issues.
• Smaller Pores: Increased collagen production refines and minimizes pores.
• Reduced Acne Scars: PRP supports skin regeneration, helping to soften scars.
• Firmer, More Elastic Skin: As collagen builds, skin becomes firmer and more youthful-looking.

Who is a Good Candidate for a PRP Facial?

Do you live in or near Boca Raton or Palm Beach Gardens? Want the latest anti-aging treatment?

If you want to reduce signs of aging, improve skin texture, or address acne scars, PRP might be perfect for you. Dr. Frieder recommends this treatment for individuals looking for a natural, less invasive way to rejuvenate their skin.

PLEASE NOTE: If you have certain medical conditions this treatment may not be right for you. Individuals with blood disorders, platelet dysfunction conditions, hematologic cancers, or low hemoglobin/platelet counts should avoid PRP therapy.

Additionally, those with active infections, blood cancers, or who are taking blood thinners are not ideal candidates, as these factors could pose potential risks and reduce the effectiveness of the treatment.

If you’re unsure whether PRP is right for you, Dr. Frieder can assess your medical history and help determine the best approach for your skin. With her extensive medical dermatology training and years of experience in cosmetic dermatology, she takes a holistic approach to patient care, ensuring you receive the safest, most effective treatment tailored to your needs.

What to Expect During and After the Treatment

PRP facials are quick and comfortable. The procedure takes about an hour, and numbing cream is applied beforehand to minimize discomfort. Some redness or mild swelling may occur after treatment, but this usually subsides within a day. Most patients return to their normal activities soon after.

For best results, we typically recommend a series of two to three treatments spaced four to six weeks apart.

PRP for Hair: A Natural Solution for Hair Thinning

While PRP is amazing for facial rejuvenation, it’s also used to promote hair growth. If you’re noticing hair thinning or early-stage hair loss, PRP injections can help stimulate hair follicles and encourage thicker, healthier growth.
