PRP in Vienna / Arlington
PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is a substance found within your own blood. It’s believed to have intense healing properties due to the growth factors and proteins that promote new cell growth. After PRP injections, skin and/or hair renews themselves.
Why Choose PRP?
One big advantage to PRP is that because it comes from your blood, there is little to no risk of serious adverse reactions. It has proven successful for skin and hair rejuvenation.
PRP injections boost collagen production, improve skin tone/texture, erase signs of aging, and promote the growth of thicker, fuller hair. Treatments are fast, lasting only around a half hour. No downtime is needed for recovery, either!
What Do PRP Injections Feel Like?
Some PRP injections contain lidocaine to minimize discomfort. If not, your provider will apply a topical numbing agent before treatment, so you won’t feel pain.
When Will I See PRP Results?
Results from PRP therapy begin to show around one week after treatment. You’ll see a more youthful appearance and radiant skin, or new hair growth, after one to two months.
It is recommended, for optimal results, you schedule two to three treatments or more if needed. Most patients report enjoying the benefits of PRP for one to two years!
Am I a Good Candidate for PRP Therapy?
As long as you are healthy and have the desire to improve your appearance through facial or hair rejuvenation (or both), you’re likely a great candidate. There are some medical conditions that may prohibit you from getting PRP, so be sure to consult with your provider.
