Are you tired of damaged skin that feels rough to the touch? A PRP (platelet-rich plasma) facial can be the perfect way to restore your natural glow. The PRP facial is an exciting new approach to skin rejuvenation and uses your own natural healing properties to stimulate collagen growth. Nurse practitioner Linda Spencer can provide more information about our facials during a skincare consultation in Indianapolis, IN.

We understand that everyone’s skin is unique and requires special attention. At Spencer Wellness Centre, we believe in developing personalized skincare plans tailored to your needs. Call now to book a PRP appointment and discuss your options.

Do you have poor skin texture?

Age, sun exposure, and lifestyle choices like smoking all contribute to skin damage. Though over-the-counter exfoliants help, they don’t reach the deeper layers of the skin. Many products even contain harsh chemicals that can harm sensitive skin even further. A PRP facial is a safe and natural way to restore healthy skin texture without harsh or abrasive ingredients.

What is PRP?

PRP is a concentration of platelets and special growth factors derived from blood, and it's used by aesthetic professionals to stimulate healing and regenerate tissue. During a skin rejuvenation appointment, nurse practitioner Linda Spencer removes a small amount of blood and spins it in a centrifuge. This separates the components and isolates the PRP, which is then carefully applied to the face.

The many benefits of a PRP facial

There are many reasons people in Indianapolis, IN choose to undergo a PRP facial at Spencer Wellness Centre:

  • Enhanced collagen production: The platelets in PRP contain growth factors that encourage collagen production and help reverse skin damage, leading to increased elasticity and firmness in the skin.
  • Improved skin tone and texture: PRP facials promote the regeneration of healthy skin cells to reduce discoloration and texture issues like fine lines and rough patches.
  • Minimized pore size: Enlarged pores can be a source of frustration. PRP facials shrink your pores and make them less noticeable, giving your skin a smoother appearance.
  • Reduced signs of aging: Our patients leave their appointments with a rejuvenated complexion that looks years younger.

When to expect results from a PRP facial

It takes time to see PRP facial results because collagen needs time to form. You may notice some improvements after one appointment, but optimal results can take 3 – 6 months. During your follow-up appointments with Linda Spencer, you’ll have the opportunity to discuss any additional sessions to produce your desired outcomes. Our professionals at Spencer Wellness Centre can answer any questions as they come up.

How long do results last after a PRP facial?

PRP facials are long-lasting, but this timeline varies among patients based on their skin condition and lifestyle habits. Here's how to maintain your outcomes long-term:

  • Wear SPF: Sun damage is a leading cause of wrinkles and rough skin texture, so always use broad-spectrum sunscreen when going outside.
  • Protect your skin from extreme temperatures: Too much time in the hot sun or cold weather can dehydrate your skin. Use a moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated.
  • Use gentle cleansers: Soaps and exfoliants that contain harsh chemicals damage skin cells and strip away natural oils. Choose mild cleansers for optimal skin health.
