PRP with EmCyte: The Science-Backed Way to Boost Collagen Naturally in Chillicothe, Ohio
A Natural Way to Rejuvenate Skin
At New Image Laser Skin Center in Chillicothe, Ohio, we are so excited to introduce PRP therapy using the advanced EmCyte PRP system. EmCyte PRP is a natural, nonsurgical treatment that uses the body's own platelets to restore smoother, firmer, thicker, and more radiant skin. When coupled with our top-tier Sciton Laser treatments, the antiaging results are incredible.
What is PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)?
PRP, or Platelet-Rich Plasma, is a concentrated collection of platelets made from your own blood. After a quick blood draw, we filter and double spin in the EmCyte centrifuge system. The filtered double spin separates the different blood products, creating a collection of billions of powerful platelets and growth factors. We inject this serum into targeted areas, and these growth factors stimulate collagen and elastin production to repair and regenerate the skin layers.
Why We Use the EmCyte PRP System
PRP is a popular treatment in our industry, but not all PRP systems are the same. We wanted to find a system that met our treatment standards, was science-backed, and provided optimal results.
The EmCyte system is an FDA-cleared medical device designed to provide the highest platelet concentrations, up to 6-8 times the platelet count of other systems. With higher platelet concentrations, more growth factors are released, leading to increased collagen stimulation and more visible results.
FAQ: Everything You Want to Know About PRP
Q: What can PRP help with?
A: At New Image Laser Skin Center, we use PRP to improve the dark hollowing or troughing under the eyes, fine lines and wrinkles, skin laxity, enhancing and smoothing of the lip margin, improving nasolabial folds, improving acne scars, uneven skin tone, as well as texture.
Q: Does PRP hurt?
A: Because we always strive for optimal treatment results, PRP is often used in combination with radiofrequency microneedling or one of our top-tier laser treatments. PRP injections and treatments can be uncomfortable, so to ensure your comfort during the treatment, a topical numbing cream is applied. Most clients describe the treatments as a light pinch.
Q: How long does PRP take?
A: The actual injections of PRP take less than 10 minutes. However, including the blood draw, topical anesthesia, and the accompanying radiofrequency microneedling or laser treatment, clients can expect to be in the office for 60-90 minutes.
Q: When will I see results?
A: Many clients noticed brighter, smoother, firmer skin in just 2 to 3 weeks, with full collagen improvement over 8 to 12 weeks.
Q: How many PRP treatments do I need?
A: For best results, we recommend a series of 3 treatments, followed by maintenance treatments every 12 to 18 months.
Q: Is PRP safe?
A: Yes! PRP uses your own blood; therefore, the risk of an allergic reaction is very rare.
Q: How much does PRP cost in Chillicothe, Ohio?
A: Pricing varies based on the treatment area. Contact our office for consultation and a customized treatment journey.
What to Expect After PRP Treatment
Downtime will vary based on other treatments provided at the same time. You may notice mild swelling or redness for 1-2 days as a result of the PRP treatment. If microneedling with radiofrequency or laser treatments are used in conjunction with PRP, downtime could be 2 to 3 days of redness or swelling depending on the depth of the treatment.
