Introduction
When your body’s healing potential meets advanced medical technology, remarkable rejuvenation can happen naturally. At Elevation Medical Aesthetics, we proudly offer PRP treatment in Queensbury using the advanced Arthrex Angel® PRP System, allowing us to deliver highly purified platelet-rich plasma tailored to your individual needs. Whether you’re looking to refresh the delicate skin beneath your eyes, enhance microneedling results, or address hair thinning, PRP provides a regenerative treatment that works with your body’s own biology. We personalize every treatment plan to help you achieve healthy, natural-looking improvements throughout your journey in Queensbury.
PRP treatment (platelet-rich plasma) is a regenerative therapy created from a small sample of your own blood. After your blood is collected, it is processed using the Arthrex Angel® PRP System, an advanced centrifuge that separates and concentrates platelets and lets your provider customize the platelet concentration for the intended treatment. This produces purified platelet-rich plasma containing growth factors that support tissue repair, collagen production, and cellular regeneration.
Once prepared, you can inject the PRP into targeted areas or apply it topically after microneedling. Since the treatment uses your own blood, it is highly biocompatible and designed to stimulate your body’s natural healing response rather than relying on synthetic materials. At Elevation Medical Aesthetics, we utilize PRP treatment in Queensbury for under-eye rejuvenation, microneedling enhancement for the face and scalp, and hair restoration using the Angel PRP System.
The skin beneath the eyes is naturally thinner than the rest of the face, making it more susceptible to fine lines, crepey texture, and a tired appearance. PRP offers a regenerative approach by delivering concentrated growth factors directly into this delicate tissue, stimulating collagen production and improving overall skin quality over time.
Rather than adding volume like traditional fillers, PRP encourages your skin to repair itself naturally. As collagen remodels and circulation improves, many individuals notice smoother texture, healthier-looking skin, and a refreshed appearance beneath the eyes. For those seeking subtle, natural rejuvenation, PRP treatment provides an excellent non-surgical option.
Microneedling creates thousands of controlled microchannels in the skin, triggering your body’s natural wound-healing response and stimulating new collagen production. Immediately after microneedling, we apply platelet-rich plasma topically so concentrated growth factors can penetrate these temporary channels and reach deeper tissue layers.
This combination enhances the regenerative process by supporting collagen remodeling, improving skin texture, and accelerating tissue repair. When performed on the face, PRP may improve fine lines, uneven texture, enlarged pores, and acne scars. When used during scalp microneedling, it helps create an environment that supports healthier hair follicles and improved hair quality, making it a valuable addition to PRP treatment.
Hair restoration requires more than simply injecting platelet-rich plasma into the scalp. PRP quality matters, which is why Elevation Medical Aesthetics uses the Arthrex Angel® PRP System. Unlike traditional centrifuge systems that produce a fixed PRP concentration, the Angel System lets providers customize platelet concentration while separating unwanted red blood cells and other blood components to create a highly purified preparation.
During treatment, providers inject concentrated PRP into areas with hair thinning. The growth factors released by the platelets help support hair follicles, improve blood supply, and promote a healthier environment for existing hair to grow. Although PRP does not create new follicles, it may strengthen weakened follicles and improve overall hair density for appropriate candidates seeking regenerative hair restoration.
Your appointment begins with a small blood draw similar to routine laboratory testing. The sample is then processed using the Arthrex Angel® PRP System, which typically takes about 15 to 20 minutes to separate and concentrate the platelet-rich plasma. During this time, your provider may apply topical numbing cream if injections or microneedling are planned.
Once your provider prepares your customized PRP, they will either inject it into the treatment area or apply it immediately after microneedling. Depending on the areas treated, appointments generally take 45 to 75 minutes. Mild redness, swelling, or tenderness is common afterward, but most individuals resume normal daily activities within a day or two.
Microneedling and PRP work exceptionally well together because the controlled microchannels created during treatment allow platelet-derived growth factors to penetrate the skin more effectively. This combination supports collagen production while improving skin texture, tone, and overall rejuvenation.
PRP may also be incorporated into a comprehensive hair restoration plan. By combining regenerative therapy with other appropriate scalp treatments offered at Elevation Medical Aesthetics, we can develop a personalized approach that supports healthier hair growth over time.
Recovery is generally quick following PRP treatment. If you receive under-eye injections, mild swelling or bruising may occur for several days before gradually improving. Following microneedling with PRP, temporary redness similar to a mild sunburn is common for 24 to 48 hours, while scalp treatments may leave the treated area feeling mildly tender for a day or two.
Your provider will review personalized aftercare instructions before you leave your appointment. Most individuals can resume normal activities shortly after treatment, but avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat exposure, and harsh skincare products for the first 24 to 48 hours.
The cost of PRP treatment in Queensbury depends on the treatment area, whether PRP is being used for under-eye rejuvenation, microneedling enhancement, or hair restoration, and the number of sessions included in your treatment plan.
