FAQS about PRP Treatments in Yorba Linda CA

Platelet-rich plasma is a naturally occurring substance found in human blood. It is rich in growth hormone and other important factors that can help repair damaged tissue and improve your body’s ability to produce collagen. PRP for each patient’s treatment is derived from their own blood, reducing the risk of a complication or infection as a result of the treatment. This process requires a centrifuge to separate the PRP from other parts of the blood before it can be administered. For hair regrowth, PRP will be injected into the scalp to induce the thickening of existing hair and improve growth in dormant follicles. PRP can also be used for facial rejuvenation. In most cases, PRP will be smoothed over the skin following a microneedling session. The microchannels created in the skin by extremely small needles will allow the PRP to penetrate more deeply into the skin and improve the production of collagen and elastin. PRP facial rejuvenation can treat aging issues and acne scarring and improve skin texture.

Each patient’s treatment needs will be different, and this will inform the total number of treatment sessions necessary to optimize your results. Platelet-rich plasma for hair loss will often consist of at least 3 sessions spaced approximately 4 to 6 weeks apart. You may also wish to undergo maintenance treatments periodically to maintain your results. Microneedling and PRP can provide results that are noticeable within 1-2 weeks following your treatment, but to achieve the best results possible, it may be necessary to undergo 2-3 treatment sessions at least 1 month apart. If you are interested in addressing deeper lines or more obvious scarring, 4-6 total treatments may be best. At Dr. Shadi Concierge Medspa, we will work with you to ensure we create a dedicated treatment plan that will fully address your aesthetic concerns.

As with any injection, there may be some discomfort or very minor pain experienced during your PRP treatment. Your provider will need to perform a blood draw in order to create your platelet-rich plasma. Blood is typically taken from a vein in the arm. If you are undergoing a microneedling procedure, a topical anesthetic may be administered prior to the procedure to reduce sensation and make you more comfortable. Following your treatment, you may notice a tight feeling in your skin or a minor stinging sensation. This will typically dissipate in 1-2 days after your appointment. Our goal is to make our patients as comfortable as possible, and we take the time to ensure you receive the high-quality care you need with as little discomfort as possible, so you can fully enjoy the benefits of your PRP treatment.
