Expertise You Can Trust

Your team at Hera draws on surgical-level aesthetics and decades of facial-plasty experience to deliver evidence-based PRP in Thousand Oaks, CA. Peer-reviewed trials confirm that autologous platelets release growth factors that measurably improve texture, pigmentation, and firmness, especially when paired with microneedling.

What Is PRP Rejuvenation?

Platelet-rich plasma is your own blood, refined. After Meghan draws a small tube, it’s spun in a medical centrifuge that stratifies the sample into three layers: red cells on the bottom, a buffy coat of white cells in the middle, and a luminous “liquid gold” layer on top—plasma enriched with millions of platelets.

Platelets are best known for clotting cuts but also act as tiny biochemical powerhouses, releasing growth factors such as PDGF, TGF-β, and VEGF. These messengers awaken fibroblasts to lay fresh collagen and elastin, stimulate new capillaries for better nutrient flow, and accelerate tissue repair.

Once isolated, Meghan either paints or lightly injects this concentrate after Collagen PIN microneedling or disperses it uniformly with the Potenza® Fusion Tip, which adds gentle radiofrequency heat. The micro-channels—or the RF needles—create controlled micro-injuries; the PRP immediately floods those sites, supercharging the skin’s natural healing loop.

Am I a Good Candidate for PRP Skin Rejuvenation?

PRP is an excellent choice if you:

  • Notice early skin laxity or crepey texture
  • Have uneven tone, sun damage, or melasma
  • Want to soften acne scars, surgical or trauma scars, or stretch marks
  • Prefer a 100% natural, autologous treatment instead of synthetic fillers
  • Seek faster healing and amplified results after microneedling or laser sessions
  • Can commit to a short series of treatments and diligent sun protection

However, PRP may NOT be appropriate if you:

  • Have an active skin infection, cystic breakout, or cold-sore flare in the treatment area
  • Live with a bleeding or clotting disorder (e.g., thrombocytopenia)
  • Are taking anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications that cannot be paused
  • Are pregnant, breastfeeding, or managing a severe systemic illness
  • Have uncontrolled autoimmune conditions or serious platelet dysfunction

To start, Meghan will review your recent lab results, medications, and health history to determine your eligibility and tailor a treatment plan that prioritizes safety.

Next, we will take baseline photographs of your skin, discuss your goals, and decide whether to proceed with traditional microneedling combined with PRP or RF microneedling with PRP. 

Pre-treatment guidelines include taking antiviral medication if you are prone to cold sores and stopping the use of NSAIDs five days prior to your treatment.

How much does it cost long-term?

Most guests invest in a three-session package ($2,050–$3,150) plus an annual booster, making PRP comparable to mid-tier laser packages.

Does PRP hurt?

Topical lidocaine and Potenza cooling make discomfort minimal—clients rate it 3/10.

Is there any downtime?

Social downtime is 24–48 hours of redness; RF variants may create tiny crusts that fall off in three days.

Can PRP treat under-eye circles?

Yes—Meghan uses a small-gauge cannula to deposit PRP in the tear trough to brighten pigment and improve crepey skin.

How soon before an event should I book?

Schedule at least two weeks prior so any pinkness subsides and glow sets in.

Will the results look natural?

Absolutely. PRP stimulates your own collagen without fillers or foreign materials.

Does skin type matter?

PRP is safe for all Fitzpatrick types I–VI.

Can I combine PRP with BOTOX or fillers?

Yes—space neurotoxin/filler treatments two weeks before or after PRP for optimal integration.

How many sessions do I need?

Three treatments are spaced four weeks apart for initial correction; one booster is every 9 to 12 months, as yearly maintenance keeps results fresh.

What are the risks?

Rare swelling, infection, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation; choosing a sterile, experienced injector like Meghan minimizes complications.
