ABOUT PRP THERAPY

Double board-certified plastic surgeon in Jacksonville Dr. Roberto Garcia is excited to provide platelet-rich plasma therapy, also called PRP at Contoura Facial Plastic Surgery to help refresh your facial appearance. PRP therapy is one of the most popular and innovative cosmetic treatments in the aesthetic industry due to its natural origin and exciting results.

IDEAL CANDIDATES


Women and men who would like to improve the texture and tone of their complexion are usually great candidates for PRP therapy. Since it promotes collagen production naturally, it's also a fantastic treatment choice for rejuvenating dull-colored skin. Speak with Dr. Garcia about any blood disorders, skin conditions, or anemia to determine whether it's safe for you to undergo PRP therapy.

PRP THERAPY TECHNIQUE

After you're comfortably seated in one of our private minor procedure areas, a bit of blood will be taken from one of your arms and put into a centrifuge machine. Usually, we take around four tablespoons.

After approximately 15 minutes on the centrifuge machine, the components of the blood will be separated and ready for injection. We will load your condensed plasma into a syringe and inject it into the treatment areas. PRP therapy typically takes around five minutes, but treatment times can vary from patient to patient.

GLOWING SKIN

By using PRP therapy treatments, your complexion will look healthier and brighter than ever before, producing a glowing, beautiful appearance. This treatment is perfect for men and women who prefer a natural technique for skin rejuvenation that provides gorgeous results. For more information about this exciting procedure, call our Ponte Vedra Beach, FL office to schedule a consult with Dr. Roberto Garcia.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PRP THERAPY

Plasma from PRP therapy promotes the production of elastin and collagen naturally to reveal younger and tighter-appearing skin. Because it uses your own blood, the risk of allergic reaction or adverse reactions is virtually eliminated.

You can expect your face to be a tad red following the procedure as a few red blood cells are included in the injection. Cold packs can be used on the treatment site to reduce discomfort and swelling. Following the initial plasma from PRP therapy Jacksonville plastic surgeon, Dr. Garcia recommends you undergo treatments in 4 – 6-week intervals to maintain results.

PRP TherapyFrequently Asked Questions

How much does PRP therapy cost?

Your cost for PRP therapy will depend on the number of treatment areas and whether you are combining it with another procedure. Your technician will provide you with a cost estimate at your consult, then inform you of the payment methods we accept.

How long do results from PRP therapy last?

Improvements from PRP therapy can last for up to eight weeks. The results will vary in every person and depend on where the treatment is used. Some of the benefits of PRP therapy are that it doesn't require incisions or a long recovery period, and it is easier to afford than some other skin rejuvenation options.

What are the risks and complications of PRP therapy?

Possible side effects from PRP when performed alone are very mild and include temporary swelling and bruising. If you choose to combine PRP therapy with microneedling, possible risks include mild scarring, delayed healing, and pigmentation changes. This is why you should have cosmetic treatments performed by an experienced technician.

Will PRP Therapy help replenish volume?

PRP therapy does not restore volume in areas, like your lips and cheeks. While PRP injections offer impressive results (rejuvenates your complexion and boosts the production of elastin and collagen), PRP treatments do not boost volume. If you want to contour areas of your face, you may be a better candidate for dermal fillers.

Is PRP therapy painful?

Injections of PRP serum feel like a wrinkle filler or relaxer injection with the extra step of extracting the plasma. Generally, Jacksonville PRP therapy patients feel a little pressure or pinch during the injection. If you're worried about feeling pain, request numbing cream before the injection is performed.
