Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a physician-performed treatment that supports skin renewal by harnessing the body’s own regenerative capacity. Using a concentrated portion of your own platelets and growth factors, PRP helps stimulate collagen production, improve skin quality, and enhance overall radiance. At Skinfocused, PRP is used thoughtfully and selectively—as a standalone treatment and as a powerful adjunct to other procedures—always tailored to your skin’s needs.
How PRP Works
PRP is created by drawing a small amount of your blood and processing it to isolate a platelet-rich concentrate. These platelets contain growth factors that signal tissue repair, collagen formation, and improved cellular function.

Depending on your goals, PRP may be:
Injected directly into targeted areas to support collagen and skin quality
Incorporated into a customized AquaGold treatment, allowing microinfusion of PRP into the superficial skin for enhanced glow and refinement
Combined with microneedling, where PRP is applied immediately after treatment to take advantage of transient micro-channels and support deeper regenerative response
Each approach is selected intentionally based on anatomy, skin concerns, and desired outcome.
What PRP Treats
Skin rejuvenation as a result of PRP can improve crepey skin, early wrinkles, and dullness. In certain patients, treatment may benefit under-eye texture concerns. In general, treatment with PRP may result in brighter overall skin quality and luminosity. PRP is often used to enhance results from other procedures rather than replace them.
PRP is a good fit for patients interested in a natural, biologically driven approach who are seeking to enhance skin radiance and support collagen development.
Downtime & Results
PRP typically stimulates and hastens recovery from any procedure. In general, any downtime depends on how PRP is delivered:
PRP injections: minimal downtime; mild swelling, tenderness, or bruising may occur.
PRP with microneedling: usually one to two days of redness and sensitivity.
PRP with AquaGold: minimal downtime; mild redness typically resolves within hours.
Most patients resume normal activities the same day or the following day.
After treatment, skin often appears more hydrated and radiant within days. Texture and tone continue to improve as collagen remodels over time. Results are cumulative, with best outcomes seen after a series of treatments.
PRP enhances skin quality and vitality—it does not change facial structure or create artificial volume.
The Skinfocused Approach
At Skinfocused, PRP is never used generically. Each treatment is physician-directed and precisely planned. Incorporation of PRP is customized to skin biology, anatomy, and long-term goals; its complementary use is designed to support natural regeneration rather than overt correction. Our philosophy is to strengthen the skin over time—improving quality, resilience, and radiance in a refined, understated way.
