PRP

PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma. It is a regenerative treatment that uses your own blood. A small sample is drawn, centrifuged to concentrate the platelets, and the growth-factor-rich plasma is reinjected into targeted areas to stimulate collagen, repair tissue, and restore luminosity from within — naturally.

PRP is used for the face, neck, and scalp and hair. On the face and neck, it improves tone, elasticity, and radiance while reducing fine lines. On the scalp, it revitalizes dormant follicles to improve hair growth, density, and scalp health. PRP can also be combined with microneedling as a facial treatment. PRF, a fibrin-based treatment, is used for the under-eye area to restore volume and target hollowness.

It works in three steps. First, a small blood sample is drawn. Then it is centrifuged on site to concentrate the platelets into platelet-rich plasma. Finally, that plasma is reinjected into the targeted areas, where the growth factors stimulate the body's natural healing and renewal.

PRF stands for Platelet-Rich Fibrin. It is a next-generation, fibrin-based treatment made from your own blood, like PRP, but it forms a fibrin matrix that releases growth factors more gradually. At Cosmo, PRF is used for the under-eye area, where it is ideal for restoring volume and targeting hollowness under the eyes and around the mouth.

Most clients do a series of 3 to 4 sessions, spaced a few weeks apart, then maintain as needed. For hair, the initial series is usually 3 to 4 sessions spaced about 4 weeks apart. The right number for you depends on the area treated and your goals, and we confirm it at your consultation.

Results build gradually. For skin, you may notice improved texture and radiance over several weeks as collagen regenerates. For hair, visible improvements often start around 3 months. Results vary per person, and maintenance is usually needed to keep them, because PRP supports renewal but does not stop the underlying cause of hair loss or aging.

A single PRP session is $550. A 4-session PRP Renewal Package is $1,980, which works out to $495 per session. The exact cost depends on the areas treated, and we confirm it at your consultation.

Most clients describe only mild discomfort — small pinpricks at the injection site. A numbing cream or cold can be applied for comfort. Any redness or sensitivity is usually light and fades within a day or two.

Minimal. You can usually resume your activities the same day. Light redness, sensitivity, or slight swelling at the injection site is possible for a day or two, and a small bruise can occur. We give you aftercare instructions at your appointment.

PRP is a good option if you want to improve skin texture, firmness, and radiance, or if you have thinning hair and your follicles are still active. It is not usually recommended if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, if you have certain blood or clotting disorders, or if there is an active infection at the treatment site. A consultation confirms whether it is right for you.

Yes. PRP can revitalize dormant follicles to improve hair growth, density, and scalp health. It works best for thinning hair and early-stage hair loss, while the follicles are still active. It is not a cure for baldness and does not permanently stop hair loss, so maintenance is usually needed. We also have a dedicated PRP hair-regrowth page with more detail.

Yes. PRP is often combined with microneedling as a facial treatment. The microchannels created by microneedling help the PRP reach deeper, and the two treatments work together to stimulate collagen and renewal. We can discuss a combined protocol at your consultation.
