What Is a PRP Facial?

A PRP facial uses platelet-rich plasma, a concentrated portion of your own blood, to encourage your skin to repair and renew itself. A quick blood draw is spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelets and growth factors, which are then applied to the skin, often alongside microneedling, so they can reach the deeper layers where collagen and elastin are made.

Because the treatment uses your own blood, the risk of allergic reaction is minimal. Many choose it to help address fine lines, uneven texture, dullness, and mild scarring without surgery or downtime.

Am I a Good Candidate for a PRP Facial?

Most people in good general health who want smoother, more radiant skin without surgery may be good candidates for a PRP facial, including those dealing with dullness, uneven texture, early signs of aging, or mild acne scarring. A consultation with the clinical team is the best way to find out if this treatment fits your goals.

Why Choose Fort Lauderdale Plastic Surgery for Your PRP Facial?

Fort Lauderdale Plastic Surgery was founded on an individualized approach, where every patient receives a personalized assessment rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. The clinical team takes time to understand your skin and your goals within a private, concierge style setting built around your comfort and discretion.

Your Consultation

Every PRP facial begins with a thorough skin analysis. Using a magnifying lamp and a review of your health history, the clinical team will assess your skin type and any specific concerns, then discuss your goals so a personalized plan, along with a cost estimate, can be created.

How Much Does a PRP Facial Cost?

The cost of a PRP facial varies based on the number of sessions recommended and whether it is combined with other treatments, such as microneedling. Because every plan is customized, scheduling a consultation is the best way to get an accurate quote.

What to Expect During Your PRP Facial

Blood Draw and Preparation

Treatment begins with a quick blood draw, similar to a routine lab test. The sample is placed into a centrifuge, which spins the blood to separate the platelet-rich plasma from its other components.

Skin Preparation

While the plasma is being prepared, your skin is cleansed and, if microneedling is part of your plan, a topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort.

PRP Application

Once prepared, the plasma is worked into the skin, often guided through fine microneedling channels so growth factors can reach deeper layers. The full treatment typically takes well under an hour.

PRP Facial Recovery

Most patients return to their normal routine the same day. Some redness, mild swelling, or a sensation similar to a sunburn is common for the first day or two, especially when microneedling is included.

Sun exposure should be limited for a few days after treatment, and a gentle skincare routine is recommended while the skin heals. Makeup can typically be reapplied within 24 to 48 hours, depending on how your skin responds.

PRP Facial Results

Many patients notice a healthy glow within days, while the fuller benefits to texture and tone tend to build gradually as collagen production increases over the following weeks.

PRP facials at Fort Lauderdale Plastic Surgery are performed by trained members of the clinical team as part of your personalized skincare plan.

How should I prepare for my PRP facial appointment?

Staying well hydrated in the days before your appointment can help make the blood draw easier. The clinical team may also ask you to avoid blood thinning medications for a short period beforehand, so be sure to share your full health history during your consultation.

Yes, PRP facials are not limited to any gender. Many men choose this treatment to help improve skin texture and tone without surgery or a noticeable change in appearance.
