PRP in Roswell, GA
At Ageless Remedies of Roswell, we believe that the best results often come from supporting your body's natural processes. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a remarkable treatment because it uses your own blood to encourage tissue regeneration and skin health. Our team of experts specializes in PRP injections to help patients achieve a refreshed, "well-rested" look, especially in delicate areas like the under-eye area. By choosing our practice, you are choosing a caregiver-led environment that focuses on safety, accuracy, and helping you look and feel Ageless at any stage of life.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a concentrated portion of your own blood that is packed with platelets and growth factors. Plasma is the liquid part of your blood that carries blood cells, including red blood cells and white blood cells. While platelets are well known for their role in blood clotting, they also contain proteins essential to the healing process.
Platelet-rich plasma therapy involves separating these concentrated platelets from the rest of your blood sample to create a powerful "healing serum." When this serum is injected back into the skin, it releases growth factors that tell your body to produce more collagen and elastin. PRP injections help to heal damaged tissue and restore a youthful appearance without the need for synthetic chemicals or invasive surgery.
The PRP treatment is a simple and comfortable process that takes place right here in our Roswell office. We begin by taking a small blood sample from your arm, very similar to a standard lab test. This blood is then placed in a specialized machine called a centrifuge, which spins it at high speeds to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other blood components.
Once the platelet-rich plasma is ready, the concentrated platelets are injected directly into the targeted areas of your skin. We may use a topical local anesthetic to ensure you are comfortable during the platelet-rich plasma injections. The entire procedure usually takes about 45 to 60 minutes. Because we are using your own blood, there is no risk of an allergic reaction, making this a very safe and successful treatment for most patients.
Microneedling With PRP
For those looking to maximize their skin rejuvenation, we often recommend combining your platelet-rich plasma with microneedling, a popular treatment sometimes called a "vampire facial." During this process, we use a specialized microneedling device to create tiny, invisible channels in the skin, which allows the growth factors in your plasma to penetrate deeper into the facial tissue. This duo works together to jump-start collagen production and repair skin texture more effectively than either treatment could alone. It is a wonderful way to address fine lines, acne scars, and large pores while helping your skin achieve a firmer, more luminous glow.
PRP has long been used by orthopaedic surgeons as an adjunct to physical therapy to promote wound healing and treat soft-tissue injuries (e.g., tennis elbow, nerve injuries, and other musculoskeletal injuries). It has become a favorite in cosmetic procedures for its ability to rejuvenate the skin from within. At Ageless Remedies, we often use PRP injections to treat sagging skin, fine lines, and uneven skin texture. It represents the "gold standard" for treating the delicate skin under the eyes, helping reduce the appearance of dark circles and hollowness. By encouraging natural tissue regeneration, PRP helps to firm the skin and create a visibly brighter, more youthful-looking complexion.
PRP is incredibly versatile and can be used on many areas where the skin needs a boost in healing and volume. It is most commonly used on the face, particularly the under-eye area and cheeks, as well as the neck, chest, and even the hands, to improve skin thickness.
The most significant benefit of a PRP treatment is that it is 100% natural. Since the serum is made from your own platelet-rich plasma, the risk of complications is exceptionally low. This treatment doesn't just "fill" a wrinkle; it stimulates your body's natural healing processes to improve your skin's health over time.
Other benefits include:
Most healthy adults seeking a natural approach to skin rejuvenation are excellent candidates for PRP therapy. It is a great option for those who may not be ready for dermal fillers but want to address under-eye hollows or early signs of aging. However, a good candidate should have a healthy platelet count. We may recommend avoiding this treatment if you have certain blood-related medical conditions or are taking blood-thinning medications. During your consultation, we will review your medical history to design a safe and successful treatment plan.
Recovery from PRP injections is very straightforward. You may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site, which typically fades within a few days. Since we are using your own plasma, there is no risk of a foreign-body reaction. We recommend that you stay hydrated and avoid strenuous activities or intense heat for the first 24 hours. Most patients feel comfortable returning to their normal activities immediately after leaving our office.
Because PRP stimulates your body to produce new collagen, the results appear gradually. You will likely begin to see an improvement in your skin's texture and tone within a few weeks, with full results appearing after several weeks or months. Your skin will look firmer, smoother, and more radiant. Platelet-rich plasma injections can significantly soften under-eye hollowing and give you a brighter, more rested look, helping you feel more like yourself every time you look in the mirror.
Most of our Roswell patients choose a series of three PRP treatments spaced about a month apart to reach their final goals. Once you achieve your desired look, the results can last for a year or more. We can schedule a follow-up appointment to check on your progress and ensure you are enjoying the best possible outcome from your PRP therapy.

The cost of PRP therapy can vary depending on the area being treated and the number of sessions required for your specific goals. We will provide a transparent quote during your consultation so you can plan your journey to younger-looking skin with clarity and confidence.
Yes! Beyond skin rejuvenation, PRP is a highly effective treatment for hair loss. By injecting the concentrated platelets into the scalp, we can stimulate the hair follicles to encourage thicker, healthier hair growth. This is a popular option for both men and women experiencing thinning hair.
The term "vampire facial" refers to a treatment that combines microneedling with topical application of PRP. While we offer this combination, PRP injections work a bit differently by delivering growth factors more deeply into the tissue to address specific volume loss and deeper repair needs.
Most patients find the PRP injection procedure very tolerable. We use a very fine needle for the injections and can apply a local anesthetic or cooling packs to ensure you feel as little discomfort as possible. The initial blood draw is no more painful than a regular blood test.
While some patients see a glow after just one visit, we typically recommend a series of three treatments for optimal results. This allows the collagen-building process to truly take hold and provide the long-lasting results you are looking for.
Because the procedure involves injections, there is a very remote risk of infection at the injection site, just like any other needle-based treatment. However, since we are using your own blood and maintaining a sterile clinical environment, this risk is extremely low.
