What Is PRP Therapy?
Have you ever wished for a way to rejuvenate your skin or add curves to your body that didn't involve scalpels, lasers, or a long recovery time? At Between the Lines Aesthetics in Birmingham, MI, we have the answer: PRP therapy. Short for platelet-rich plasma, PRP therapy is one of the most sought-after cosmetic procedures in the industry due to its natural method and thrilling results. Best of all, it offers a variety of cosmetic options, from minimizing the appearance of fine lines on the face to adding volume to the breasts for an overall younger, refreshed appearance. For more information about the benefits of PRP therapy and how it can be used to help you achieve your desired look, set up your consultation at Between the Lines Aesthetics today.
How Do PRP Treatments Work?
Following your consultation, our nurse practitioner will have you sit or lie back in one of our procedure rooms as a small amount of blood is drawn from one of your arms. This sample will be put in a centrifuge, which will spin it around quickly to separate the components, allowing us to draw out the concentrated platelet-rich plasma. This serum will then be applied to the area(s) you want to have enhanced. To help the serum penetrate into the lower layers of skin, our staff performs microneedling to open up small channels. The entire process is generally quick, creating minimal discomfort for most patients. Once your PRP treatment is done, you can go back to your regular day. We recommend avoiding strenuous activity and being gentle around the treatment areas for a few days. You should begin to notice improvements within 6 weeks.
For clients looking for enhanced results, Between the Lines Aesthetics also offers exosome therapy, which uses lab-formulated growth factors to boost collagen growth without the need for a blood draw. Exosome treatments can provide the same outstanding benefits as PRP therapy, allowing you to enjoy smoother, rejuvenated skin with little to no downtime.
What Are the Benefits of PRP Therapy?
PRP and exosome treatments are a popular option among our clients thanks to their many benefits, which include:
- Uses the body's own regenerative processes for natural results
- Smoothes and softens the skin
- Promotes collagen and elastin production
- Reduces the chance of complications compared to conventional skin treatments
- Improves blood circulation to the treated areas
- Improves the appearance of wrinkled or crepey skin

How much does PRP therapy cost?
The final cost for PRP therapy can vary based on the area being treated and whether you’re combining it with any other cosmetic treatments. Your technician will give you an estimated cost in your initial consultation and talk about any specials we are offering.
How long do results from PRP therapy last?
Visible results from PRP therapy may last for up to eight weeks. The results will vary in each person and will depend on the area being treated. Some of the advantages of this treatment are that it doesn't require surgery or a long recovery period and is less expensive.
What are the risks and complications of PRP therapy?
Potential risks from PRP on its own are extremely minor and include only temporary swelling and bruising. When combined with microneedling, potential risks may include mild scarring, delayed healing, and pigmentation changes. This is why it's important to have microneedling done by a skilled practitioner, like our own providers.
Will PRP help replenish volume?
While PRP therapy can be extremely effective in terms of lasting skin rejuvenation, it cannot restore lost volume to your features. If you wish to contour areas on your face, you may add dermal fillers to your PRP treatment plan.
Is PRP therapy painful?
PRP serum injections feel like a dermal filler or BOTOX injection with the additional step of plasma extraction. Typically, most patients feel a little pinch or pressure when the needle pierces the skin. If you're concerned about pain or discomfort, ask about including local anesthesia with your treatment.
