PRP Therapy — Platelet-Rich Plasma
Restore glow, improve texture, and harness your body’s own healing power. PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a physician-performed regenerative treatment that stimulates collagen, improves skin quality, and reduces fine lines with minimal downtime — artful, natural, and scientifically grounded.
ABOUT PRP THERAPY
What is PRP?
PRP is an autologous (your own blood) concentration of platelets and growth factors that, when reintroduced into the skin or scalp, supports tissue repair and collagen remodeling. Treatments can be delivered via microneedling, precision injections, or scalp injections for hair stimulation.
Why choose PRP at Elevè?
• Physician-led: Dr. Kay personally oversees PRP protocols and designs treatments that align with facial anatomy and aesthetic goals.
• Individualized protocols: PRP preparation, number of sessions, and combination with microneedling or topical modalities are tailored to your skin type and priorities.
• Minimal downtime, natural results: Stimulates gradual improvement in texture, pore size, tone and fine lines without changing your features.
What PRP treats
• Fine lines & early wrinkles
• Uneven texture and enlarged pores
• Post-acne scarring (as an adjunct)
• Under-eye rejuvenation (when appropriate)
• Early hair thinning / androgenetic alopecia (scalp injections)
o Evidence indicates PRP can improve multiple skin parameters and patient-reported outcomes when used alone or combined with other procedures.
The Elevè PRP Procedure
1. Consult & plan: Physician consult to review goals, medical history, and realistic outcomes.
2. Blood draw & processing: Small blood draw processed in a sterile centrifuge to concentrate platelets.
3. Numbing & treatment: Topical anesthetic (if needed). PRP is applied with microneedling, injected into targeted areas, or used for scalp injections. Procedure time ~30–60 minutes.
4. Recovery: Mild redness, pinpoint bleeding or bruising possible for 24–72 hours. Most people return to normal activity quickly.
Typical protocol & timeline
• Skin: 4 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, then maintenance every 6–12 months depending on results.
• Hair: Initial series of 6 injections 2-4 weeks apart, then maintenance every 3–6 months as recommended.
Before & aftercare
Before: Avoid NSAIDs/aspirin & alcoholic binge 48–72 hours prior; stop topical retinoids 3 days prior if doing microneedling.
After: Gentle cleansing, avoid heavy makeup 24 hours, avoid exercise/heavy sweating 24–48 hours; expect progressive improvement over 4–12 weeks.
