The PRP facial harnesses your blood’s natural regenerative properties to rejuvenate your complexion and restore a more youthful facial appearance.
The PRP facial works by combining minimally-invasive microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP). First, microneedling stimulates collagen by creating hundreds of microscopic holes in your skin.
Then, the PRP – the portion of your blood that features a heightened concentration of platelets – triggers new collagen and elastin production, breaks up scar tissue, and restores a brighter and more radiant complexion.

Because it’s safe and non-invasive, the PRP facial is appropriate for most of our patients. However, it tends to produce the best results for patients with early signs of aging.
If your signs of aging are advanced, or if you’re suffering from significant volume loss or excess skin, you may require a different procedure, such as BOTOX, dermal fillers and/or plastic surgery.
Your PRP facial will take about an hour and a half to complete and will be done in the comfort of our Chicago office. To begin, we will thoroughly clean your skin and draw a small amount of blood. That blood will be placed in a centrifuge and spun at high speeds until the platelets and the plasma are isolated for the procedure.
From there, a numbing cream will be applied to ensure your comfort. We will then use a pen-like microneedling device to create hundreds of tiny holes in your skin before applying the PRP topically. These holes will allow the PRP to access the deepest layers of your skin, where it can most efficiently promote collagen production.
Once your facial is complete, you will be free to return home right away. The next morning, you will wash the PRP off your face.
The results of your PRP facial will appear gradually. Most patients notice a healthy glow within a few days, but it can take a full four to six weeks for maximum collagen regeneration. The overall effects can endure for over a year, at which point most patients require a maintenance visit.
