Facial wrinkles are a common concern for patients who seek out esthetic treatments. Wrinkles are also one of the first signs of aging evident on the face. At PRP In Seattle, we have many skincare options that can improve the appearance of wrinkles. What the options for PRP for facial wrinkles?

Firstly, microneedling with PRP is a procedure that combines collagen induction therapy (aka microneedling) and platelet rich plasma. Together these treatments induce your body to create more collagen. This can smooth the look of wrinkles, improve skin quality, and lead to overall younger looking skin. 

Secondly, our zombie laser peel combines a chemical peel with PRP and lasers for the ultimate skin rejuvenation. The zombie laser peel has many benefits including the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. It is less invasive than a surgical laser treatment and is the perfect treatment to prevent and treat the onset of wrinkles. 

Finally, depending on the location of your wrinkles, PRP for facial wrinkles may be treated with injections. PRP for tear troughs can treat tired eyes which can make the face look younger and treat wrinkles under the eyes.

Tips For Protecting Your Skin After PRP Microneedling In Seattle

By | PRP Skin Care

Microneedling with platelet rich plasma is a professional skincare treatment that can lessen the appearance of acne scars, improve skin texture, and overall quality of the skin. While the procedure is non-invasive, requires no downtime, or recovery, your skin may appear red and experience some irritation. Your Seattle master esthetician will give you tips for caring for your skin following a microneedling with PRP procedure, such as: 

#1: Wear SPF

While wearing sunscreen daily is one of the best things you can do for your skin, it is especially important after microneedling with PRP in Seattle. Even if you have the procedure done in the winter, UV rays can still sneak into your skin and damage it, or hinder your results. 

#2: Avoid Other Facial Treatments

As mentioned, microneedling with PRP can leave your skin extra sensitive. Therefore, you cannot receive other facials, esthetic services, or facial waxes for at least two weeks. This may vary by patient and your needs, but your master esthetician will cater your care plan to your needs and goals.

This also includes discontinuing exfoliation treatments and products. Before leaving, your master esthetician can answer questions about your current skin routine and what products you should stop temporarily. Most patients return to their full skin care routine around a week after the procedure.

One Of Best Acne Scar Treatments: Microneedling With PRP

By | PRP Skin Care

Getting rid of acne scars is known to be a long and difficult process. Often, the complete elimination of acne scars is impossible, but certain treatment methods can reduce their appearance. Arguably, one of the best acne scar treatments is microneedling with PRP. 

Microneedling can be performed with or without platelet rich plasma. However, combining this collagen induction treatment with PRP supercharges the process. This can lead to increased cell turnover and higher collagen production. This, in turn, can lead to collagen filling in, or smoothing acne scars. Platelet rich plasma is known to aid and induce the healing process which allows for your body to treat your scars like a new wound.

The tiny punctures made through microneedling, push the PRP deep into the skin. While these holes in the skin are usually not visible to the naked eye, they trick your body into triggering your healing response. This can create new skin and provides nourishment to the treated areas.

These two powerful treatments combine to create one of the most effective and best acne scar treatments: microneedling with PRP. Your master esthetician can determine if your acne scars may benefit from microneedling with PRP.

Benefits Of PRP Facials

By | PRP Skin Care

Platelet rich plasma facials come in many forms. Microneedling with PRP as well as more traditional facials all feature many benefits. At PRP In Seattle, we offer microneedling with PRP and our proprietary zombie laser facial to help rejuvenate your skin. 

In general, PRP facials can supply benefits like: skin texture improvements, acne scar treatment, reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and a more even skin tone. Arguably the best benefit, however, is that the PRP technology in our facials stimulates collagen production. 

Collagen is a protein that supports your skin and makes it supple and bouncy. PRP facials increase cell turnover and collagen production, a similar process to wound healing. This leads to your skin looking rejuvenated and can help smooth out acne scars and other similar skin concerns. PRP facials also have anti-aging benefits.

Overall, our master estheticians work to cater your PRP facial to your skin type and tone. To schedule a consultation with one of our master estheticians at PRP In Seattle, call us at 206-279-2112 or contact us online.

The Zombie Laser Peel: How Our PRP Laser Peel Works

By | Platelet Rich Plasma, PRP Skin Care

Laser resurfacing and chemical peels are two of the most popular professional skincare procedures. Combined with platelet rich plasma, these procedures are supercharged. At PRP In Seattle, our proprietary zombie laser peel combines all the benefits of these treatments into one. 

When you come in for a zombie laser peel, your Seattle master esthetician will prepare the PRP and prep your skin for the peel. They will create the peel and apply it to the skin. Once fully applied, they will use a laser to slowly remove the skin peel. This leaves your skin feeling rejuvenated and holds many benefits. 

Using targeted laser beams, the laser latches onto the pigment in the peel and powerfully resurfaces the skin as it removes the peel. The facial peel itself, like with a traditional chemical peel, works to reveal a fresh layer of skin and provide nourishment to your face. When the laser hits this new skin, it creates skin that looks healthier and more youthful. 

The combined efforts of PRP, chemical peels, and laser technology come together to offer a unique skincare treatment in Seattle. To schedule a consultation with a master esthetician at PRP in Seattle, call us at 206-279-2112 or contact us online.

Collagen: What It Does For Your Skin & How PRP Stimulates It

By | Platelet Rich Plasma, PRP Injections, PRP Skin Care

When doing research on skincare products and procedures, you’ve probably heard of collagen. But, what exactly is it and what does it do? Collagen is a vital protein in mammals that is found in most of our connective tissues. As we age, our body naturally produces less collagen. This contributes to the visible signs of aging like facial hollows and wrinkles, but also to the physical signs like joint pain. 

In professional skin care treatments, they often create small abrasions or injuries that tell your body to heal them. This causes your body to ramp up collagen production. This can treat and correct many skin concerns like acne scarring, sun damage, texture issues, and uneven pigmentation. 

Esthetic services like microneedling, manually stimulate collagen growth. However, because platelets are one of the first responders to an injury site, adding platelet rich plasma can ramp up this process. Your body will often respond quicker and with more fervor when PRP is added. This can lead to more collagen production and can increase the length of time your body produces it.

Additionally, when used as a filler, PRP can begin collagen production in the injected area. This can lead to longer lasting results than dermal fillers.

Microneedling with PRP in Seattle, Bellevue and Kirkland

The Unparalleled Benefits Of Microneedling With PRP

By | Platelet Rich Plasma, PRP Skin Care

Microneedling is one of the hottest skin care treatments on the market for the past few years. It’s ability to restore a more-youthful appearance is remarkable without entourage procedures. However, when this powerful collagen induction procedure is combined with the regenerative powers of platelet rich plasma, it can offer exponentially better results. 

Hyaluronic acid serums have traditionally been used after microneedling sessions, as the microscopic punctures allow for deeper serum penetration. Substituting PRP for traditional serums has been shown to supercharge microneedling procedures, further increasing collagen production. The end result is more supporting tissue below your skin and less wrinkles on the surface.

PRP encourages cell regeneration. This allows you see faster results, possibly with fewer treatments than if you chose traditional microneedling. Adding PRP to microneedling is common in the treatment of deep acne scarring and may help provide an improved result when treating surgical scars.
