Platelet Rich Plasma PRP & SuperShot PRP

Platelet-rich plasma is an all-natural anti-aging solution that can remedy the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles as well as improve skin texture. Platelets are the cells in the blood that help tissue to heal and grow new cells. PRP is created within a small sample of blood withdrawn from you at the time of your appointment. When platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is applied topically to specific areas of the skin, it promotes your own collagen growth and naturally soothes and tightens the skin. Studies document that PRP provides lasting results for skin quality, scalp health, hair growth, scar improvement, and wound healing.

What treatments can I have with PRP?

PRP can be added topically with a variety of treatments to enhance results, improve scars, and encourage hair growth and health. Many patients add PRP with our DOT Laser, Morpheus8, INTRAcel, Microneedling, or other skin improving treatments. The process improves the overall quality, tightness, and texture of their skin.

  • PRP for Hair Growth & Health -- We use a type of platelet-rich plasma that provides the best possible stimulation for hair follicles. The PRP with Biotin supports a steady release of growth factors over a 7–10-day period. PRP stimulates keratin production and the rate of follicle growth.
  • PRP for Skin -- Since PRP comes from your own body the results vary for each person. Our patients have noticeable improvement in the tone, texture, and overall quality of their skin. They have been impressed with the results.  Results begin to show 3-4 weeks after the treatment session and continue to improve with time. 1-6 treatment sessions are generally required for optimal results.
  • PRP for Hair -- For PRP hair restoration, patients can see results in 2-3 months. More prominent results are reported six months after treatment. Typically, a series of treatments must be performed for optimal results.
  • PRP for Scar Improvement – As a result of Dr. Chernoff’s extensive research in scar improvement, he has developed protocols that combine PRP with other microneedling and RF Microneedling (Morpheus8 & INTRAcel) treatments to achieve the best possible results.
