As we age, many of us want a healthy, bright complexion and youthful appearance. However, aging is not kind to our skin. Stress and sun damage can compound the issue and make you look older than your age. Fortunately, PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a natural solution that has powerful anti-aging properties to rejuvenate your appearance. PRP has been proven to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve your overall skin tone and texture, and increase collagen production. The PRP Facial and PRP Facelift are two quick and nonsurgical facial rejuvenation procedures that offer lasting benefits to your skin texture and appearance.
What Is PRP?
Platelets are the cells that clot your blood when you are injured and tell your body’s tissue to heal and grow. These platelets release growth factors that increase the production of collagen and elastin, stimulate blood flow, and regenerate new cell growth. Many fields of medicine have started using Platelet-Rich Plasma as a natural way to speed up recovery and promote the growth of healthier tissue. PRP is used in minimally invasive cosmetic treatments for skin rejuvenation and vaginal rejuvenation. PRP can also help with hair restoration and prevent further hair loss by repairing damaged hair follicles and jumpstarting new hair growth.

The PRP Facial
Do you want to reduce the visible signs of aging and improve the quality of your skin? The PRP facial procedure combines microneedling with PRP therapy to improve your skin’s texture, diminish fine lines, and give you that healthy glow. Microneedling creates tiny punctures in the top layer of the skin to trigger the body to create new collagen and elastin. This also allows for better absorption of the PRP, which is applied topically. A PRP Facial can help reduce the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, crow’s feet, sun damage, uneven skin tone and texture, and crepey skin.
The PRP Facelift
If you want to restore volume to and improve the contour of your face, the PRP facelift can produce the desired effect! This procedure uses dermal fillers and PRP is strategically injected to activate new tissue growth and smooth your skin texture. Fillers add volume and help shape your face. Platelet-rich plasma also facilitates the growth of new blood cells, increasing circulation and leaving you with a radiant complexion. If you’re noticing that you look tired or your face is becoming droopy, the PRP Facelift will provide smoother skin while increasing lift and tightness.

The PRP Procedure
To prepare your PRP, a small amount of blood is drawn and placed in a machine called a centrifuge. During centrifugation, the platelets are separated from other blood cells and their concentration is increased. A topical anesthetic is applied to your face for maximum comfort during the procedure. The PRP is used as a topical treatment for a PRP Facial or via an injection for a PRP Facelift. At LUMEN, we offer the Magellan TruPRPTM, system – the most advanced technology available to distill the purest and most effective PRP. There is no risk of an allergic reaction because PRP uses your own blood.
