Platelet rich plasma provides several benefits to the face. Whether applied topically or injected, it can help rejuvenate the skin for a more youthful appearance as well as treat certain skin conditions. Those seeking aging treatment, often ask, “Does PRP tighten the face?”

PRP can help tighten the skin, but depending on the extent of the loose skin, patients may want to use other treatments in addition to PRP. For example, RF microneedling with PRP is one of the best treatments for helping to tighten the skin. However, PRP plays only a minor role in that process by speeding up the healing process and promoting longer lasting skin benefits.

Overall, patients see the best skin tightening results from PRP combined with microneedling. PRP injections can help produce more collagen and elastin to fill in wrinkles and hollows. Though, patients should have realistic expectations and know that it takes more sessions for a subtler result than dermal fillers.

By | Platelet Rich Plasma, PRP Skin Care

RF microneedling with PRP is a procedure that combines the physical and biological stimulation of collagen production. Microneedling uses tiny needle pricks to instigate a collagen response. PRP then boosts this response with its presence in the area. This makes it one of the most effective professional skin treatments out there. Let’s look at the question, “What are the side effects of RF microneedling with PRP?

Microneedling with PRP—whether with or without radiofrequency—can come with some minor side effects. Immediately following the procedure, the skin may appear red and feel tight or extra sensitive. This is normal and your master esthetician will apply products to help soothe and protect the skin.

In the coming days, a small amount of soreness and swelling may occur. However, bruising and major swelling are rare. Peeling is uncommon, but not often a cause for concern. Side effects of RF microneedling with PRP should subside in a week or less. Full results of the procedure are expected in about two weeks.
