What Is Facial Rejuvenation?
At Vita Nova Anti-Aging and Rejuvenation Center, we offer platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy as a facial rejuvenation treatment that enhances the complexion with an advanced aesthetic method to refresh your appearance. Our procedure infuses plasma directly from a patient’s individual bloodstream into specific sections throughout the forehead, cheeks, or body to address problematic areas and produce more radiant, youthful-looking skin. Plasma has platelets and growth factors that (as they're reintroduced into the tissue) promote collagen and elastin production. Board-certified internist Dr. Francisco Cardona administers PRP therapy to naturally renew the skin and help patients achieve their cosmetic goals. Reach out to our Carlsbad, NM practice today to arrange a visit with Dr. Cardona, and explore the benefits of PRP therapy.
How Does Facial Rejuvenation Work?
If you want to enhance your skin tone and texture, PRP therapy may be a suitable and comfortable choice. The process begins with a small sample of blood drawn from your arm and placed into a centrifuge. This device spins the blood for about ten minutes, separating its various components in preparation for the treatment. The separated, concentrated plasma is then transferred into a sterile syringe. This plasma is either injected into specific areas of your face or applied topically in conjunction with a microneedling procedure. PRP therapy is known for its ability to stimulate collagen and elastin production, contributing to firmer and more youthful-looking skin. Since the treatment utilizes your own blood, it minimizes the risk of allergic or adverse reactions. Post-treatment, it's common to experience some redness in the treated areas, as injections may include small amounts of red blood cells.

Facial Rejuvenation FAQ
How much does facial rejuvenation with PRP cost?
Treatment costs for PRP therapy vary depending on the area being treated and whether it's paired with other treatments. During your consultation at Vita Nova Anti-Aging and Rejuvenation Center, your technician will provide a personalized cost estimate and discuss available payment options. We're also happy to go over any current specials to help make your treatment more affordable.
How long will my results last?
PRP therapy results can last up to eight weeks, though this can vary depending on the individual and the treatment area. One of the biggest benefits with PRP rejuvenation is that it doesn't involve any incisions or long recovery periods, making it a convenient option. It's also generally more affordable compared to other treatments.
What are the risks and complications of PRP therapy?
The risks of PRP therapy on its own are minimal, typically involving temporary bruising or swelling. When combined with microneedling, there may be additional risks such as infection, mild scarring, pigment changes, or delayed healing. This is why it's important to have microneedling done by a skilled technician who is well-trained in the procedure to help minimize these risks.
Can PRP facial treatments add volume?
While PRP therapy rejuvenates the skin and promotes collagen and elastin production, it doesn't restore volume. If you're looking to add contour or fullness to areas of your face, we offer a variety of filler options at Vita Nova Anti-Aging and Rejuvenation Center, including BeautiFill®. These advanced treatments can enhance both the texture and shape of your skin.
Is PRP therapy painful?
PRP injections feel similar to wrinkle filler or relaxer injections, with the added step of extracting plasma beforehand. Most patients experience a mild pinch or pressure during the injection. If you're worried about discomfort, we can discuss adding local anesthesia to help make the treatment more comfortable for you.
