This procedure is especially suitable for individuals with fine lines, wrinkles, scars, or sagging skin on the face. Ideal candidates should also have sufficient blood volume to provide the necessary platelet-rich plasma. Patients with serious health conditions or active skin disorders may be less suitable.

A PRP (platelet-rich plasma) treatment usually begins with a small blood sample drawn from the patient’s arm vein. The blood is then centrifuged to isolate the platelet-rich plasma, which is subsequently injected into the targeted areas of the skin. Anesthetic is generally not required, and most patients find the procedure relatively painless.

Swelling, redness, and mild discomfort may occur in the treated area, but these usually subside quickly. Bruising can occur in some patients, although it is uncommon.

The results of a PRP treatment can vary, but many patients notice an improvement in their skin’s appearance within a few weeks to about a month after treatment. The longevity of the effects depends on various factors, including individual skin characteristics. Generally, results last several months to a year or longer, and periodic follow-up treatments are recommended to maintain the benefits.

The number of sessions needed for optimal results from a PRP treatment depends on the patient’s individual goals and skin condition. Typically, multiple sessions spaced about four to six weeks apart are recommended to achieve the best results.

There is usually no downtime following a PRP treatment. Most patients can immediately resume their normal activities. Temporary redness, swelling, or mild skin irritation may occur, but these typically subside within a few hours to a few days.

Yes, at LIVION, PRP treatments are often combined with other procedures to achieve enhanced results. For example, PRP is frequently paired with laser therapy for skin rejuvenation to amplify its effects. In cases of hair loss, it is often combined with our Power Infusion Therapy.
