Can PRP Injections Be Used As Dermal Fillers?

PRP releases growth factors that can help rejuvenate the skin causing healthier looking skin with a nice "glow" and possibly a little plumpness. You cannot fill lines or add significant volume with PRP alone. Even activated PRP (PRFM) will not give you the same fullness that a filler injection would. However, when we combine PRP with fillers, the presence of the filler will activate the PRP and act as a scaffold for your own collagen to form around. This is what we call a "Vampire Facelift." The PRP will allow less fillers to be used and will increase the longevity of the filler. The skin will improve much more than it would with the filler alone. This is one of my favorite treatments!

Thank you for your question. PRP stimulates your skin’s stem cells to produce more collagen and grow new cells. Combination of fillers and microblading will also help. I would advise you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed examination to discuss all possible treatment options and what your expectations are. 

Platelet rich plasma therapy or a vampire facial as it is popularly called nowadays, is a skin tightening procedure that uses the goodness of what our bodies have to offer with a tweak of science.
What is PRP?
Platelet rich plasma is a treatment that involves drawing blood from a patient, concentrating the platelets and administering it to the face and/or neck regions.
What does it do?
Platelet rich plasma therapy helps boost the production of both collagen and elastin which is essential to keep the skin tight, plump and youthful.
Is PRP similar to fillers?
No, while platelet rich plasma therapy helps in over all skin tightening and some anti-ageing effects. On the other hand, fillers are used to fill inanimate wrinkles and other hollow regions of the face like under eyes or deep acne scars.
Can PRP substitute fillers?
Since their uses are completely different, the answer is no. PRP cannot be substituted for dermal fillers.
