PRP: Not Just a Trend

PRP: Not Just a Trend

You’ve probably heard of Vampire Facials because of the influential Kim Kardashian, but have you heard of PRP? Well, it’s the same exact thing, just without the familiar name of Vampire Facial. However, don’t knock the PRP facial as something that is just on trend, this treatment has some major restorative benefits! We at ZONA Med Spa wanted to give a simple and clear breakdown of what the experience would be like and inform you on the amazing benefits of our PRP facial.

Why get a PRP Facial?

The internal essence of your blood contains life-giving fundamental protein growth factors designed to restore and strengthen your skin. PRP utilizes a leading-edge patented technology specifically designed and verified for aesthetic applications. Our RN professional will harness an extremely high concentration of your biological nutrient-rich cells and then create autologous platelet-rich plasma. Platelet-rich plasma is a regenerative technology that uses your own biochemistry to instinctively repair and strengthen specific residing tissues. Another cool thing about PRP treatments is that it’s exclusively from you, meaning there is an extremely low chance of having an allergic reaction or intolerance to it.

Overall benefits:

  • Restore and strengthen your skin
  • Collagen stimulation
  • Softens fines line and wrinkles
  • Improves skin’s tone and texture
  • Helps acne scarring

Process of a PRP Facial:

A PRP Facial is a procedure in which the body’s own platelet rich plasma (PRP) is used to re-energize cells and boost collagen production. So basically, this treatment is specifically great for middle aged persons who want to revive their skin.  The following is a step-by-step process to the treatment:

  1. Your blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge – this allows the plasma and growth factors to separate
  2. PRP is applied topically to the skin
  3. A MICROPEN is then used to aerate the skin – which is when the skin is perforated with near microscopic holes to allow for the delivery of the PRP
  4. A second layer of PRP is applied allowing for maximum benefit

After the treatment, there is 2 to 3 days of downtime, however you will be pleased to notice the overall tone, texture and quality of your skin will greatly improve will just one treatment. Depending on the client’s skin goals, it may require 3-5 treatments over 3-6 months.Here at ZONA Med Spa our experienced staff are here to answer any of your questions or concerns and insure you are as comfortable as possible.  If you are interested in a PRP Facial give ZONA a call and set up a free consultation.
