When will I start to see results, and how long will the effects last?
Facial PRP Microneedlinglike any other PRP treatment, generally shows a gradual progression of improvement over time. Some notice improvements starting at 3 weeks and continued improvement over the next 3 months. Some patients achieve desired results after one treatment, but others require more than one treatment.
Although Facial PRP Microneedling can help turn back the clock, annual maintenance treatments are recommended to maintain optimal and lasting results, since it does not stop the aging process. Effects may last up to 12-18 months.
For scars or stretch marks, a series of three to five treatments about four weeks apart may be necessary to achieve optimal results. The number of treatments also depends on severity of the area to be treated.
How long will the effects last?
Effects typically last up to 12 to 18 months depending on the issues we are addressing. For some, we may suggest 3-4 sessions 4 weeks apart to address any trouble areas and then maintenance treatments yearly.
We recommend that you have annual treatments to maintain your skin’s vibrant and refreshed look. Some opt to have more frequent treatments due to the results they have achieved, and there is no contraindication to having more frequent sessions.
Are there any side effects?
There is minimal risk associated with PRP treatments, since it is derived from your own blood. Common side effects that are associated with injections in general apply to Facial PRP Microneedling. These include but not limited to mild redness, swelling, itching, tenderness, or bruising at site of injection. These usually are not serious and will subside after a few days.
