Boost Collagen Production With Platelet Rich Plasma

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is an exciting new development in the field of aesthetic treatments. PRP is derived from the patient's own blood, and when injected into the skin, it helps to stimulate collagen production. As a result, PRP facials can help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of aging.


At Youthful You Aesthetics, our team of certified professionals is proud to offer PRP skin care services to our clients. We believe that this treatment offers a safe and effective way to achieve youthful-looking skin.

What is PRP Hair Restoration?

PRP® Hair Restoration is a hair loss treatment that addresses the root of the problem. It is a non-surgical, safe, and effective way to prevent hair loss and promote healthy hair growth. The goal of the treatment is to help you achieve thicker, lusher, and more voluminous hair with no downtime whatsoever.


Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a treatment that is used to accelerate healing in various areas of the body. Platelets promote cell growth and regeneration. PRP therapy for hair loss is a three-step medical treatment in which a person’s blood is drawn, processed, and then injected into the scalp. PRP is typically used in treatment where hair loss results from androgenetic alopecia, a common condition that causes hair follicles to shrink. PRP injections trigger natural hair growth and maintain it by increasing blood supply to the hair follicle and increasing the thickness of the hair shaft.


PRP is great for treating hair loss, especially for those with thin, sparse and brittle hair. Studies show that PRP is effective in treating hair loss by:

  • Increasing hair count
  • Increasing hair thickness
  • Increasing the number of times your hair actively grows (anagen phase of the hair growth cycle)

Benefits of PRP

Are you considering getting a PRP treatment? PRP therapy is said to offer a number of benefits for the skin. Keep reading to learn more about this exciting new cosmetic treatment and whether it may be right for you.


  • Natural Cosmetic Injection

    One of the biggest benefits of a PRP facial is that it uses your own blood so there is no risk of allergic reaction or rejection. Additionally, because PRP comes from your own body, there is minimal risk of infection. 


    That's why PRP facials are sometimes called "vampire facials" because they use your own blood to create the platelet-rich plasma that is injected back into your skin. 

  • Stimulate Collagen Production

    Collagen is a protein that gives our skin its firmness and elasticity. As we age, our collagen levels naturally decrease, which can lead to wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin. A PRP facial can help combat these signs of aging by stimulating the production of collagen, resulting in firmer, more youthful-looking skin.

  • Plump Sagging Skin

    PRP facials increase blood flow to the target area, which results in a temporary “plumping” effect. If you are looking for a way to achieve tighter, firmer skin without surgery or downtime, a PRP facial may be right for you.

  • Cost Effective

    PRP facials are much less expensive than other cosmetic procedures such as Botox or fillers. And unlike these other procedures, there is no downtime associated with a PRP facial—you can go about your day as usual immediately following the procedure.

FAQs About PRP Treatments

PRP skin care facial treatments are becoming increasingly popular as people look for non-invasive ways to improve their appearance. If you're considering this beauty service, be sure to check out these common questions that we get about this treatment and the answers.

  • Is this a good treatment for those with acne?

    If you are struggling with acne scars, a PRP facial can help diminish their appearance. This is because the growth factors in platelet-rich plasma can help promote the production of new skin cells. New skin cells will help fill in acne scars and give your skin a more even tone and texture.

  • When will I see results?

    The effect of treatment is most noticeable after at least six months. Repeat treatments may be necessary to maintain the improvement in hair growth and texture.

  • How long do results last?

    For best results, consistency is key. Treatments are typically performed once a month for the first three to four months, and then every three to six months thereafter, depending on the individual client's response and results.


    Following this protocol, anticipated results can first be seen within two to three months. After the results start to appear, you’ll still need to get touch-ups at least once a year to maintain new hair regrowth.

  • Is it safe?

    Although the idea of injectiing blood into the face may sound strange, PRP facials are actually quite safe and can provide significant results. There are very few risks associated with PRP facials, as they use the patient's own blood so there is minimal risk of allergic reaction or infection. However, because PRP facials involve injections, there is a small risk of bruising or infection at the injection site. 

  • Will it reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation?

    Hyperpigmentation is characterized by patches of dark skin on the face or body. It can be caused by sun damage, inflammation, or certain medical conditions. While hyperpigmentation is not harmful to your health, many people want to treat it for cosmetic reasons. A PRP facial can be an effective treatment for hyperpigmentation because it helps to even out skin tone by lightening dark patches of skin. 

  • Is PRP painful?

    The procedure is relatively painless as it is performed under local anesthesia, and requires zero recovery time. PRP treatment is one of the safest ways to restore the hairline naturally.

  • What can I expect after PRP Hair Restoration?

    • The client should avoid washing the treatment area for 48 hours. 
    • After that, it is all right to use hair and skin care products and continue with topical medications.
    • The treatment area may be sore for two or three days, and the patient may notice some bruising. Acetaminophen can help ease discomfort.
    • Hair dye or coloring treatments can resume one week after PRP treatment.

What is the Secret to Youthful Skin?

As we age, it's not just our skin that starts to show signs of wear and tear. The underlying bone and muscle can also start to lose volume, leading to wrinkles, sagging skin, and a generally tired-looking appearance. Fortunately, our cosmetic dermal fillers at Youthful You Aesthetics can help to address these concerns by restoring lost volume and giving the face a refreshed appearance!
