At Rio Glow Aesthetics and Wellness, we believe in unlocking your body’s natural ability to heal, restore, and rejuvenate from within. That’s exactly what PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is designed to do—using your own blood to stimulate collagen, improve skin tone and texture, and reverse visible signs of aging.
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma, a powerful serum derived from your own blood. It contains high concentrations of growth factors and proteins that help repair tissue, stimulate collagen production, and promote new cell growth.
The process is simple:
A small amount of your blood is drawn
It’s spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma
The PRP is then injected or microneedled into the skin to promote rejuvenation
Because the treatment uses your body’s own healing factors, PRP is 100% natural, safe, and biocompatible—making it an ideal option for clients seeking results without chemicals, fillers, or surgery.
PRP therapy is incredibly versatile and can be used to treat a range of aesthetic concerns, including:
– Fine lines and wrinkles
– Under-eye hollows and dark circles
– Uneven skin tone and texture
– Acne scars and pigmentation
– Hair thinning and scalp rejuvenation (PRP for hair restoration)
– Collagen loss and dull skin
At Rio Glow, we often pair PRP with microneedling (also known as a “vampire facial”) to enhance penetration and boost results.
✅ Completely natural with no synthetic ingredients
✅ Stimulates collagen, elastin, and cell turnover
✅ Safe for all skin types and tones
✅ Minimal downtime and long-lasting benefits
✅ Personalized treatments for your specific skin goals
Whether you’re looking to brighten your complexion, smooth fine lines, or revive thinning hair, PRP offers a powerful, natural path to healthier, younger-looking skin—without the need for surgery or harsh chemicals.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is one of the most sought-after treatments in modern aesthetics—and for good reason. At Rio Glow Aesthetics and Wellness, we use PRP to help clients restore their skin’s youthful glow and smoothness naturally, without relying on synthetic fillers or invasive procedures.
Whether you’re looking to reduce signs of aging or simply refresh tired, dull skin, PRP delivers results by working with your body, not against it.
✅ Boosts Collagen and Elastin Production
PRP stimulates the body’s natural collagen and elastin response, leading to firmer, plumper, and more resilient skin over time.
✅ Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles
The regenerative properties of platelet-rich plasma help soften expression lines and smooth creases, especially around the eyes, mouth, and forehead.
✅ Improves Skin Tone, Texture, and Radiance
PRP encourages cell renewal and circulation, leaving your skin looking brighter, smoother, and more even-toned.
✅ Minimizes Dark Circles and Under-Eye Hollowing
One of the most popular uses of PRP is treating the delicate under-eye area, where it helps reduce darkness, volume loss, and fine lines.
✅ Softens Acne Scars and Sun Damage
By supporting tissue regeneration, PRP is excellent for fading acne scars, sun spots, and textural irregularities.
✅ Safe for All Skin Types and Tones
Because it’s made from your own blood, PRP carries no risk of allergic reaction, making it a great option for even the most sensitive skin.
✅ Natural and Chemical-Free
PRP is a completely natural solution—no toxins, fillers, or synthetic ingredients. Just your body doing what it was designed to do: heal and regenerate.
✅ Minimal Downtime, Long-Lasting Results
You may have some redness or tightness for 24–48 hours, but results continue to build over the following weeks—and can last up to 12 months with proper care.
Whether you’re targeting early signs of aging or looking to refresh your skin without injectables, PRP offers a versatile, safe, and natural path to lasting skin renewal.

We want you to feel confident and fully informed before starting your PRP treatment. Here are answers to the most common questions we get about Platelet-Rich Plasma therapy at Rio Glow Aesthetics and Wellness:
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma. It’s created by drawing a small amount of your blood, placing it in a centrifuge, and spinning it to separate out the plasma rich in growth factors. This concentrated serum is then used for facial rejuvenation, under-eye treatments, hair restoration, and more.
Yes—PRP is extremely safe because it’s derived from your own blood. There’s virtually no risk of allergic reaction or rejection. At Rio Glow, all PRP treatments are performed by skilled medical professionals using sterile, clinically approved techniques.
PRP is commonly used for:
– Facial rejuvenation (full face, under eyes, cheeks)
– Under-eye dark circles and hollowness
– Neck and décolleté smoothing
– Acne scars and uneven texture
– Hair restoration (scalp injections for thinning hair)
Discomfort is minimal. We use numbing cream before applying PRP topically or injecting it, and most clients describe the feeling as a mild pinch or light pressure. When combined with microneedling, you may feel a “sunburned” sensation afterward.
Most clients benefit from a series of 3 treatments, spaced about 4–6 weeks apart. Maintenance sessions every 6–12 months help prolong your results.
Results build gradually over several weeks and can last up to 12 months depending on your skin health, lifestyle, and how many sessions you receive.
Absolutely! PRP is often paired with microneedling (commonly known as a vampire facial) to enhance collagen stimulation. It can also complement Botox or dermal fillers as part of a full-face rejuvenation plan.
You may experience mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity for 1–3 days. Most clients return to work and normal activities the next day. Makeup should be avoided for at least 24 hours.
PRP is ideal for:
– Clients seeking natural skin rejuvenation
– Those looking to improve texture, tone, and tightness
– Individuals who want to avoid synthetic fillers
– Clients with under-eye concerns, acne scarring, or dull skin

At Rio Glow Aesthetics and Wellness, we take pride in providing a smooth, comfortable, and personalized PRP experience from start to finish. Whether you’re treating fine lines, under-eye circles, or dull skin, our step-by-step process ensures you get natural results with minimal downtime.
Here’s what you can expect during your PRP session:
Your journey begins with a one-on-one consultation where we evaluate your skin concerns, treatment goals, and medical history. We’ll determine whether PRP is the right option for you and develop a customized treatment plan based on your needs.
We’ll draw a small amount of blood—similar to what you’d expect during a routine lab test—usually from your arm. This is a quick and painless process that takes only a few minutes.
Your blood is then placed into a centrifuge, where it spins rapidly to separate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from other blood components. This process concentrates the growth factors that promote healing, collagen production, and tissue regeneration.
Depending on your treatment goals, your PRP will be applied in one of two ways:
– Microneedling + PRP (Vampire Facial): The PRP is applied topically to the skin while microneedling creates micro-channels to allow deeper penetration and enhanced collagen stimulation.
– Direct PRP Injections: For under-eye hollows, acne scars, or precise skin concerns, PRP may be injected directly into targeted areas to promote localized healing and rejuvenation.
In some cases, both methods may be used together for even greater results.
After the treatment, your skin may feel warm, tight, or slightly red—similar to a mild sunburn. We’ll provide clear post-care instructions to maximize your results and support healing. Most clients resume daily activities within 24 hours.
– Treatment time: 45–60 minutes
– Downtime: Minimal (1–3 days of mild redness or sensitivity)
– Full results: Develop gradually over 2–6 weeks
– Longevity: Results can last up to 12 months with proper care
At Rio Glow, we use advanced PRP techniques with the highest safety and quality standards to ensure you leave with skin that looks refreshed, radiant, and naturally revitalized.
| Treatment | Best For | Natural or Synthetic | Downtime | Results Timeline |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) | Fine lines, texture, dullness, under-eye rejuvenation | Natural (your own plasma) | Mild redness for 1–3 days | 2–6 weeks; builds over time |
| Microneedling (alone) | Texture, pores, acne scars | No added substances | 1–3 days | 2–4 weeks |
| Chemical Peels | Hyperpigmentation, texture, dull skin | Synthetic (acid solutions) | 2–7 days of flaking or peeling | 7–14 days |
| Laser Resurfacing | Deep wrinkles, sun damage, texture | Device-based (non-natural) | 5–10 days | 2–3 weeks |
| Dermal Fillers | Volume loss, deep wrinkles | Synthetic (hyaluronic acid-based) | Minimal, possible swelling or bruising | Immediate |
PRP therapy is a gentle, natural treatment—but your skin still needs a little TLC to ensure the best results. At Rio Glow Aesthetics and Wellness, we’ll guide you every step of the way with simple aftercare instructions to protect your skin and enhance your glow.
Here’s what to expect and how to care for your skin after your PRP session:
– Mild redness or sensitivity (like a sunburn) for 1–3 days
– Slight swelling or pinpoint bruising, especially around injection areas
– Temporary tightness, dryness, or flaking as your skin begins regenerating
– A natural glow that builds gradually over 2–6 weeks
– Avoid touching or rubbing your face for the first 4–6 hours
– Do not apply makeup for 24 hours post-treatment
– Skip workouts and sweating for 24–48 hours to minimize inflammation
– Avoid sun exposure—wear a mineral SPF 30+ daily to protect healing skin
– Use a gentle cleanser and hydrating products for the first 3–5 days
– Stay hydrated and eat antioxidant-rich foods to support skin healing
– Exfoliating products (scrubs, acids, retinoids)
– Hot saunas, steam rooms, or tanning beds
– Alcohol and smoking (both slow down healing)
– Harsh or fragranced skincare
– Gentle, fragrance-free cleanser (e.g., CeraVe, La Roche-Posay)
– Hyaluronic acid serum for hydration
– Arnica gel or tablets (optional, to reduce bruising)
– Mineral-based sunscreen (SPF 30+) daily
– Collagen-boosting supplements or vitamin C (optional but helpful)
We typically recommend a series of 3 PRP treatments, spaced about 4–6 weeks apart, for optimal collagen stimulation and long-lasting results. Maintenance treatments every 6–12 months can help preserve your glow.
Taking care of your skin after PRP is simple—but crucial for getting that smooth, radiant, long-term result. And as always, if you ever have questions or concerns, the Rio Glow team is just a call or message away.
