PLATELET-RICH PLASMA (PRP) SKIN REJUVENATION

Serving patients in Henderson, Las Vegas, and the greater Clark County area.

What is platelet-rich plasma (pRP)?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a regenerative skin treatment that uses concentrated platelets from your own blood to support collagen production and natural tissue repair. In aesthetic medicine, PRP is carefully processed and injected into targeted areas to help improve skin texture, tone, and overall skin quality.

At NuCanvas Aesthetics & Wellness Center, PRP treatments are performed by a licensed medical provider following a comprehensive evaluation to ensure safety and appropriate candidacy.

NuCanvas provides services only to patients age 18 and older.

what to expect during pRP skin rejuvenation?

Procedure Time: Approximately 60 minutes
Downtime: Mild swelling or redness for several days is common

Step-by-step process:

  • Medical evaluation and candidacy review

  • Optional topical anesthetic for comfort

  • Blood draw (typically 1–4 small tubes)

  • Centrifugation to isolate platelet-rich plasma

  • Precise injection or topical application (often combined with microneedling)

PRP preparation typically involves:

  • Drawing a small amount of blood

  • Processing the sample using a sterile centrifuge system

  • Separating and concentrating platelet-rich plasma

  • Applying or injecting PRP into targeted treatment areas

Because PRP is prepared from the patient’s own blood, the risk of allergic reaction is low.

  • Uneven skin texture

A full medical evaluation is required before treatment. All treatments are performed in a medical setting using sterile technique.
