PRP

As we age, our skin envelope begins to thin out. Collagen and fat begin to shrink, giving us a hollow or sunken appearance.

Fillers are synthetic or autologous agents used to help restore the volume for the face and body.

PRP, or Platelet Rich Plasma, is an autologous filler made of activated albumin derived from the platelet poor plasma in the processing of plasma, the portion of blood free of red blood cells.
