Regenerative

PRP, Natural Results, Powered By You.

PRP is platelet-rich plasma drawn from your own blood, separated in a centrifuge, and applied or injected into the skin to drive healing and collagen production. Most often paired with SkinPen, it amplifies the response and accelerates results.

How it works

Renewal, From Within.

The treatment starts with a blood draw, typically one or two small vials. The blood is then centrifuged for several minutes, separating into layers: red blood cells at the bottom, platelet-rich plasma at the top.

That platelet-rich layer is drawn into a sterile syringe. Depending on the protocol, it's either applied topically immediately after SkinPen, injected into specific areas of concern, or both.

The growth factors stimulate fibroblast cells to produce new collagen, accelerate wound healing from the SkinPen channels, and improve overall skin tone. Results build over three to six months as collagen rebuilds.

A typical protocol is three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart, with maintenance once or twice a year after that.

What to expect
1
Consultation
BEFORE

Your provider assesses your skin and your goals. PRP works best for clients looking for natural-feel rejuvenation through their own biology rather than added volume or pigment work. We discuss whether PRP fits your timeline, and the pre-care: hydration the day before, no aspirin or blood thinners for a week.

2
Treatment
DURING

Blood draw (a single small vial), centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma, then application. PRP can be applied through SkinPen or injected directly depending on what we're treating. Sessions run sixty to ninety minutes including processing time.

3
Recovery
DAYS 1-7

Day 1-2: redness and possible swelling, similar to a sunburn. Day 3-7: bruising at injection sites fades, skin starts to feel firmer. SPF every day. Avoid heat (saunas, hot yoga, intense workouts) for the first forty-eight hours.

4
Results
WEEKS 4-12

Collagen response builds over four to twelve weeks. Skin texture refines, tone evens, fine lines soften. Results compound across the series rather than peaking after one session.

5
Series
SESSIONS 3

Most clients see best results from a series of three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart. Annual touch-up sessions maintain the result.

Principles of Care

Your Own Biology

Regenerative treatments use your blood, your platelets, your growth factors. The result comes from your tissue, not an injectable product.

Early Wins Big

These treatments work best when started early. Late-stage hair loss and significant skin damage respond less. We're honest about that timing.

Layered Protocols

PRP works best combined with microneedling, BHRT, or laser depending on the concern. We design protocols, not single-product solutions.

Realistic Trajectory

Most clients see meaningful improvement, not dramatic transformation. The work is patient. The progress is real but steady.

THE QUESTION WE GET MOST OFTEN

"

What does PRP for skin actually do?

"

PRP is your own platelet-rich plasma, separated from a small blood draw. When applied through SkinPen or injected into your skin, the concentrated growth factors stimulate your body's collagen and elastin production. The result is firmer, smoother, more even skin over the following months. Most commonly used for fine lines, dullness, acne scarring, and tone.

Jessica Haught

I was truly blown away after my appointment here. Every single person I interacted with, from the front desk to the providers who handled my treatments, was incredible! They made me feel so welcomed and cared for, and were both informative and genuinely kind. The space itself is spotless, cozy, and easily the most inviting place I’ve ever been for Botox. Michelle did my Botox and she was amazing! I also had a hydrafacial and dermaplaning, and I already can’t wait to come back again and again.You will not regret booking here!
