PRP Facial vs. PRP Facelift

Hinsdale prp treatments

Your blood consists mainly of liquid plasma, with smaller amounts of solid components like red cells, white cells and platelets. Platelets help to clot blood, and also contain important healing proteins. Dr. Alkadri creates platelet rich plasma by drawing a small amount of a patient’s blood, and then spinning it in a centrifuge to separate platelets from the other components. This concentrated plasma can then be used in a variety of treatments to encourage healing and stimulate cell growth.

  • PRP facial – PRP is applied to the skin through microneedling. This treatment is ideal for overall skin rejuvenation, including improvement to scarring, fine lines and brown spots. This option is more superficial than the facelift.
  • PRP facelift – PRP is combined with a dermal filler and injected into the skin. This treatment is ideal for patients hoping to improve volume loss and add youthful height and curves to their cheeks. The filler adds lift and volume, and the platelet rich plasma helps build collagen scaffolding over time to support new volume.

Schedule a complimentary consultation so that Dr. Alkadri may evaluate your skin and recommend the ideal treatment option.

PRP Facial Treatment Process

  1. You complete an initial consultation so that Dr. Alkadri can discuss your goals and determine the best treatment options, and what to expect from the PRP facial.
  2. A small amount of blood is drawn from your vein.
  3. That blood is placed in a centrifuge, where it spins so that the platelets are separated from the red blood cells.
  4. The face is topically numbed with an anesthetic cream to help you feel comfortable during application.
  5. Using a microneedling pen, Dr. Alkadri creates tiny channels in the skin and activates collagen production.
  6. PRP is applied across the face so that it may enter those channels and be needled back into the skin.
  7. You will experience some redness for 2-3 days following and should be sure to wear sunblock and protect the skin as it heals.
  8. You will begin seeing improvements shortly after the procedure, with the full results taking hold within several months and lasting up to 1-2 years.
  9. Other non-invasive treatments like cosmetic injections help increase the length and intensity of results, with additional PRP facials also intensifying improvements. Talk to Dr. Alkadri about the treatment regimen that might be best for you.

PRP Facelift Treatment Process

Some treatment steps are similar to the PRP Facial, but the incorporation of dermal fillers branches the procedure off in a different direction.

  1. After completing your consultation and drawing blood, Dr. Alkadri injects dermal fillers to create the desired facial shape.
  2. Dr. Alkadri injects the prepared platelet rich plasma into specific areas of the face to active stem cells present in the skin. These multipotent stem cells then trigger new tissue growth in the treatment area. This leads to an ongoing boost in volume and skin rejuvenation.
  3. Procedure results continue to take hold for 2-3 months following, and last for 1-2 years depending on your skin, your lifestyle and other anti-aging treatments you may incorporate.

Common PRP Facial & PRP Facelift Questions

What are platelets?

Platelets are tiny cells in your blood, which are responsible for stopping bleeding by forming blood clots. They help heal blood vessels when damage occurs.

How are platelets harvested for PRP treatments?

Your PRP is derived from your own blood, during your appointment. A small amount of blood is drawn and then spun in a centrifuge. During this process, the platelet rich plasma separates from the red blood cells. This PRP is then applied to your face or other treatment areas to rejuvenate the skin.

Can platelet rich plasma be used on the face alone?
