Prevent/Reverse mild to moderate wrinkles with PRP or exosomes:
Both treatments improve skin texture/tone and reduce the appearance of fine lines and mild to moderate wrinkles.
Platelet-rich plasma consists of two elements: plasma, or the liquid portion of blood, and platelets, a type of blood cell that plays an important role in healing throughout the body. Platelets are well-known for their clotting abilities, but they also contain growth factors that can trigger cell reproduction and stimulate tissue regeneration or healing in the treated area. Platelet-rich plasma is simply blood that contains more platelets than normal. When used during a microneedling treatment, the growth factors in PRP increase collagen and elastin production and speed the healing process. It is used in many medical applications aside from skin rejuvenation, including orthopedic surgery, where it is injected to speed up the healing process.
Exosomes are derived from placental stem cells and contain 10x more growth factor proteins compared to PRP. Its potency is especially evident in minimally-invasive hair restoration treatments. Treatment with exosomes results in a faster healing process post-microneedling and allows patients to skip the blood draw that is required for PRP treatments.

Approximate number of treatments recommended:
Prevention (no wrinkles): 2 treatments/year
Treatment of mild wrinkles: Minimum of 3 consecutive treatments 6 wks apart
Treatment of moderate wrinkles: Minimum of 6 consecutive treatments 6 wks apart, usually in conjunction with neurotoxin 1-2x/year
