What is PRP treatment?
PRP is an autologous, non-surgical, and injectable treatment that relies on using components derived from your body to activate your skin’s natural healing processes. The treatment involves harvesting a small sample of your blood, isolating the PRPs (platelet-rich plasmas), and injecting them into the treatment areas. Over time, your body naturally heals cosmetic concerns and increases your collagen reserves. The results are smooth, even-textured, and firm skin without downtime or complications. PRP treats:
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Skin sagging and laxity
- Hyperpigmentation and melasma
- Sun damage and age spots
- Brown spots and redness
- Acne scars and surgical scars

How do I move forward with PRP?
If you’d like to proceed with PRP treatments in our San Francisco office, please schedule a consultation with the cosmetic procedures at Bay Area Aesthetic Surgery. Our providers will assess your skin quality and discuss your goals to curate the ideal PRP treatment plan for optimal results. They’ll explain every step of the treatment process so you have complete clarity.
What can I expect during PRP?
The PRP treatment starts with a simple blood draw using a small syringe — similar to a blood draw for diagnostic purposes. The blood is placed in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasmas from the platelet-poor plasmas. The desired components are isolated and purified. Meanwhile, the cosmetic providers cleanse the treatment areas on your skin to receive the injection. The purified PRPs are strategically injected into the treatment areas using ultrafine needles. You might feel a slight pinch, but there’s no pain.
What can I expect after PRP?
Like all other injectable treatments, you’ll experience mild redness, swelling, and irritation around the injection points. Some patients experience temporary bruising around the treatment areas. However, you can resume all your daily activities and work immediately without downtime.
What kind of results can I expect?
PRP results appear gradually over several weeks and months, depending on your body’s natural healing processes. Your skin will gradually seem smoother with fewer wrinkles, and the scars will start fading away. You might need multiple sessions for optimal results — your provider will recommend the ideal treatment frequency.
