At Boston Cosmetic Specialists, we continuously strive to provide our patients with the latest in cutting edge facial rejuvenation procedures available on the market. We are proud to offer platelet rich plasma (PRP) treatments to reduce fine lines and wrinkles and produce, vibrant, younger-looking skin. We are at the forefront of this revolutionary technology that combines the science of dermal fillers such as Restylane and Juvederm with stem cell technology in this customized cosmetic procedure.

As we age, the color of our skin changes as a result of less underlying blood flow. The shape of the face collapses as muscle and collagen decrease. As the texture of our skin becomes less smooth, the person begins to look tired and worn. While surgical procedures can remove excess skin to make the person appear younger, surgical procedures are not for everybody. With the PRP procedure, the youthful volume is restored to a beautiful shape, and is extremely effective at improving natural skin tone and youthful texture.

By utilizing the growth factors in the platelets, we can activate the stem cells already in the skin and cause those cells to grow new, younger-looking skin. After collecting a small amount of blood, we will place the blood into a centrifuge which will spin the blood at a rapid rate to separate the platelets from the rest of the components. Similar to HA fillers, platelet rich plasma is injected to sculpt the face, but PRP also contains numerous growth factors that continually work to rejuvenate the face for an extended period of time. Once these growth factors are activated, they can:

• Improve the skin’s color because of new blood vessel formation.
• Stimulate collagen production in the dermis, thus lifting the face to a more youthful shape.
• Because these growth factors have helped build a new dermis, the outermost layers of the skin (epidermis) appear smoother.
