Facial Rejuvenation with PRP (Plasma Rich in Platelets) and Soft & Hard Filler Applications

Clinical Overview

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a regenerative aesthetic procedure that leverages the patient’s own biological material—specifically, plasma enriched with platelets and growth factors—to stimulate dermal repair, collagen production, and overall skin revitalisation. At Reviva Aesthetics, PRP is utilised in two primary formats:

Soft PRP: Administered through either microinjections (mesotherapy technique) or uniformly delivered into the superficial dermis using the Neopen, a medical-grade microneedling device that ensures consistent depth, reduced trauma, and optimal absorption.

Hard PRP: Injected manually into specific anatomical zones requiring deeper structural regeneration, such as under the eyes, nasolabial folds, or areas of atrophic scarring.

Both approaches can be performed independently or combined in a single session for full-face bio-rejuvenation.

Ideal Candidate Profile

• Patients seeking natural, non-synthetic skin rejuvenation
• Individuals exhibiting early to moderate signs of ageing, including crepiness, dullness, fine lines, and skin thinning
• Those with post-acne textural irregularities, mild pigmentary changes, or dehydrated skin
• Ideal for sensitive skin types and patients with contraindications to dermal fillers or other injectables

Treatment Protocol

Comprehensive Skin Consultation:

A facial analysis is conducted to determine the appropriate depth and delivery method. Photographs are taken to document baseline skin condition.

Blood Draw and Plasma Separation:

A sample of venous blood is collected and processed via centrifugation to isolate the platelet-rich fraction.

Topical Anaesthesia:

The treatment area is prepped and numbed using a topical agent for approximately 20–30 minutes.

PRP Administration:

Soft PRP: Produced with the help of a Gel Maker device that transforms the liquid prp into soft filler. Delivered via mesotherapy-type multiple superficial microinjections across the face and neck using a fine needle or cannula with Reviva Technique.

‍Delivered either via:

• Mesotherapy-style injections: multiple superficial microinjections across the face or neck using a fine-gauge needle
• Neopen-assisted microneedling: a controlled fractional delivery system that enhances absorption while triggering dermal healing pathways

Hard PRP: Injected manually into areas of concern (e.g., tear troughs, marionette lines) to initiate regeneration at a deeper tissue level

Completion and Recovery Support:

A post-treatment calming serum and high-protection SPF are applied. Aftercare protocols are reviewed with the patient.

Total treatment time: approximately 75–90 minutes

Post-Treatment Care Guidelines

• Avoid cosmetic products, actives, or makeup for at least 48 hours post-treatment
• Refrain from sun exposure, excessive sweating, and thermal therapies for 72 hours
• Use only clinic-recommended skincare, focusing on hydration and barrier repair
• Temporary erythema, pinpoint bruising, or swelling may occur and typically resolves within 2–3 days
• Do not exfoliate, use retinoids, or undergo other aesthetic treatments for one week post-procedure
• Daily application of SPF 50+ is essential for protection and to support tissue recovery

Recommended Treatment Frequency

• A standard protocol of PRP Hard Filler is needed once.
• Maintenance treatments or repetition of Hard Prp Filler is recommended every 8-12months, depending on skin condition and desired longevity of results.
• A standard protocol of PRP Soft Filler consists of 3 sessions, spaced 4 weeks apart to allow for progressive dermal stimulation.
  Maintenance treatments or repetition of Soft Prp Filler is recommended every 6-8 months, depending on skin condition and desired longevity of results.

Most patients begin to see visible improvements in tone, smoothness, and elasticity within 4–6 weeks, with continued collagen remodelling over several months.
