PRP, or platelets rich therapy, is an increasingly popular treatment option in Charlotte, NC and beyond. As more and more people, of all genders, look for ways to rejuvenate their skin and look younger, PRP comes up as a treatment option more and more. Below, we’ll cover what it is and how it works.
Q. What exactly is PRP?
A. It is also known as a vampire facial. This skin treatment involves your dermatologist removing blood from body, separating out the platelets, then injecting the platelets back into your skin.
Q. What skin concerns can PRP treat?
A. It can treat a variety of skin concerns, many of which cause signs of aging. PRP can be used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, plump sagging skin, diminish acne scars, and more. Your dermatologist can advise if PRP is a good option for your skin goals or not.
Q. How does it help rejuvenate your skin?
A. It works by triggering your skin to repair itself. Often, dermatologists combine this treatment with another, such as fillers, to give patients immediate, even better results. Your dermatologist will be able to discuss what option or options will give you the best results.
