PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatment can indirectly influence the appearance of the face, giving the impression of a change in shape. The procedure primarily focuses on improving skin quality rather than altering underlying bone structure.
According to information regarding PRP benefits for the face, the treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production. This can lead to:
- Tighter Skin: Increased collagen makes the skin firmer.
- Fuller Skin: Enhanced elastin improves skin elasticity and volume.
- Smoother Skin: Reducing wrinkles and fine lines.
Therefore, while PRP won't reshape your bone structure or significantly alter fat distribution, the resulting improvements in skin tightness and volume can create a more youthful and rejuvenated look, making the face appear more defined or lifted. In areas with deeper wrinkles and lines, doctors may use hyaluronic acid fillers or neuromodulators such as Botox. These procedures alongside PRP could further affect the appearance of facial shape by adding volume or relaxing muscles that contribute to wrinkles.
| Feature | Effect of PRP | Impact on Face Shape Appearance |
|---|---|---|
| Collagen | Increased production | Firmer skin, potentially more definition |
| Elastin | Increased production | Improved volume, youthful appearance |
| Wrinkles/Lines | Reduction | Smoother skin, less sagging |
