PRP Facial in Roseville, CA
Platelet Rich Plasma Facial Treatment
Looking for a PRP facial in Roseville, CA? At Bodyvine Aesthetics, our platelet-rich plasma facial is an advanced, non-surgical way to support skin rejuvenation using something you already have: your own blood. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a concentrated portion of your blood that is rich in growth factors, the natural signals your body uses to repair tissue and build collagen. When it is placed in the face, this facial PRP treatment helps refresh tired-looking skin, soften early signs of aging, and bring back a natural, youthful glow from the inside out.
PRP facial pricing starts at $500, and your first step is a free consultation with our team.
What Is a PRP Facial?
A PRP facial, also called a facial PRP treatment, is a regenerative treatment built around your body’s own healing abilities. PRP is found in the plasma portion of your blood. A small blood sample is drawn, spun in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets, and then the plasma is re-injected into areas of the face that could benefit from added support and volume. It is placed in a way that is similar to a dermal filler appointment, but instead of a manufactured product, the treatment uses your body’s own natural cells.
Because PRP comes from your own blood, it is a natural-feeling option for patients who want to slow the visible signs of aging without surgery and without relying on synthetic ingredients alone.
How Platelet Rich Plasma Works to Support Skin Rejuvenation
Platelets do far more than help blood clot. They carry a high concentration of growth factors that signal the skin to repair itself. Concentrating them and delivering them where you need support is the idea behind every platelet rich plasma treatment.
The Role of Growth Factors and Collagen Production
Growth factors help stimulate collagen production and cell renewal. Collagen and elastin give skin its firmness, bounce, and elasticity, and both naturally decline over the years. By stimulating your skin’s own regeneration process, PRP helps support smoother texture, better tone and a fresher appearance over time.
Why Using Your Own Blood Matters
Since the plasma is prepared from your own blood sample, the treatment is designed to work with your body rather than against it. This is one reason many patients choose PRP when they want natural-looking skin rejuvenation with a gradual, believable improvement.
PRP Facial Roseville CA: What to Expect During Your Procedure
Knowing what to expect makes the experience easier. Here is how a typical PRP facial appointment unfolds at Bodyvine Aesthetics.
Step 1: Consultation and Skin Evaluation
We start by listening to your goals and reviewing your health history, current medications and skin concerns. Your provider will evaluate your skin, discuss which areas to treat, and tell you whether a PRP facial is the right fit or whether another option would deliver better outcomes.
Step 2: Blood Draw and Plasma Preparation
A small blood sample is taken, similar to a routine lab draw. The sample is placed in a centrifuge, which separates the platelet rich plasma from the rest of the blood so the platelets are concentrated.
Step 3: Treatment and Aftercare Instructions
The prepared plasma is then injected into the treatment areas of your face. Your provider may use a topical numbing cream to keep you comfortable. Before you leave, you will receive clear aftercare instructions so you know how to protect your skin while it heals.
Benefits of a Facial PRP Treatment
Patients choose a PRP facial for gentle, natural-looking improvement and a short recovery. Potential benefits include:
- Support for collagen production and skin rejuvenation
- Smoother, more refined skin texture
- A brighter, more radiant glow and less dull-looking skin
- Softer fine lines and early signs of aging
- A refreshed, more youthful appearance without surgery
- A treatment based on your own blood, with no synthetic filler product
- Minimal downtime for most people
Results vary from person to person, and your provider will help you set realistic expectations for your skin.
Skin Concerns Platelet Rich Plasma Treatment Can Address
PRP is often chosen by people seeking gradual improvement in skin quality rather than a dramatic one-time change. It may help with:
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Dull, tired-looking skin
- Uneven skin texture and enlarged pores
- Mild loss of volume and firmness
- Sun damage and signs of aging
- The look of mild acne scars and other scars
For acne scars specifically, many patients pair skin-rejuvenating procedures with microneedling. You can read more in our guide to microneedling against acne scars.
PRP is not the right tool for every condition. If your main concern is hyperpigmentation, melasma, rosacea, redness, or spider veins, our laser treatments are designed for those concerns, including hyperpigmentation, melasma, rosacea, and vascular concerns.
Areas That Can Be Treated With PRP
PRP is most often used across the face, depending on your goals and anatomy. Your provider will map out suitable treatment areas during your consultation, so the plan is personalized to where you want more glow, texture improvement, or support. If you are also noticing thinning hair, our hair restoration page explains the options we offer, and our blog post Does PRP Hair Restoration Really Work? takes a closer look at PRP for the scalp.
Who Is a Good Candidate for a PRP Facial?
A good candidate is generally a healthy adult who wants natural skin rejuvenation and understands that results build gradually. You may be a good fit if you:
- Notice early signs of aging, dullness, or rough texture
- Prefer a treatment that uses your own body’s resources
- Want a non-surgical option with minimal downtime
- Are willing to complete a series of sessions
Whether PRP is suitable for you will always be decided during your consultation, after we review your medical history.
Who Should Avoid a PRP Facial?
PRP may not be appropriate for everyone. People who are pregnant, have active skin infections, have a blood or clotting condition, or take blood-thinning medication may need to avoid it or wait. Please tell your provider about your full health history, any condition you manage, and every medication or supplement you take. If PRP is not right for you, we will help you find a safer alternative.
How to Prepare for Your PRP Facial
To prepare for your appointment:
- Stay well hydrated, since it helps with the blood draw
- Share your medical history, medications, and supplements with your provider
- Arrive with a clean face, free of makeup if possible
- Avoid new or aggressive skin treatments right before your visit
- Follow any pre-treatment instructions your provider gives you
PRP Facial Recovery, Downtime and Aftercare
Most people return to daily activities soon after treatment, but expect some temporary changes while your skin heals.
The First 24 to 48 Hours
Redness, mild swelling, and small bruises at injection sites are common. Avoid strenuous exercise, heat, and rubbing or scrubbing your face during the early recovery period, and protect your skin from the sun.
The First Few Weeks
As the area heals, your skin continues to rebuild. Use gentle skincare, daily sunscreen, and any aftercare products recommended by your provider. If you want a skincare plan to support your results, ask about our medical-grade skincare shop.
Possible Side Effects of PRP Treatment
Because PRP uses your own blood, an allergic reaction to the plasma itself is unlikely. The most common side effects are mild and temporary: redness, swelling, tenderness, bruising, and pinpoint bleeding at the injection sites. Rare risks include infection or irritation from a topical numbing cream. Contact us if you notice anything unusual, such as worsening pain, significant swelling, or signs of infection.
How Many PRP Facial Sessions Will I Need?
The right number of sessions depends on your skin, your goals, and how your skin responds. Many providers recommend a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart, followed by periodic maintenance sessions to help sustain results. At your consultation, we will create a personalized treatment plan, so you know the schedule before you start.
When Will I See Results, and How Long Do They Last?
PRP works with your body’s natural healing timeline, so improvement is gradual. Some people notice a fresher glow within weeks, while collagen remodeling continues for months. Results typically last for several months to a year or more, depending on your age, skin condition, lifestyle, and sun protection. Maintenance sessions help keep your results on track.
PRP Facial vs. PRP Microneedling (the "Vampire Facial")
The two are often confused. The term “vampire facial” is commonly used for microneedling combined with PRP applied to the skin afterward. The PRP facial described on this page is an injected treatment. If your main goal is smoother texture, scars or pores, our microneedling in Roseville may be worth a conversation, and our guide to what microneedling is and how it works explains the differences. We also offer RF microneedling for added skin tightening; see our RF microneedling guide to learn more.
PRP Facial vs. a Surgical Facelift
Some people call this a “PRP facelift,” but it is not the same as a surgical facelift. Surgery physically repositions tissue and delivers more dramatic lift. PRP supports your skin’s quality, texture and firmness through regeneration, with little downtime. If you are seeking skin tightening or lift without surgery, we can discuss HIFU or radiofrequency skin tightening alongside, or instead of, PRP.
Combining PRP With Other Treatments at Bodyvine Aesthetics
A comprehensive plan often works better than a single treatment. Depending on your goals, your provider may recommend combining PRP with:
- Dermal fillers to restore volume in targeted areas
- Sculptra to stimulate collagen over time
- Botox to relax expression lines
- Chemical peels and laser skin resurfacing to refine surface texture
- A HydraFacial or one of our custom facials for deep cleansing and glow
- PRF or EZ Gel, two other regenerative options in our injectables lineup

PRP Facial Frequently Asked Questions
Is a PRP facial safe?
PRP facial rejuvenation is generally considered safe for healthy candidates because it uses your own blood. Risks are mostly minor, such as redness, swelling, and bruising. A thorough consultation helps rule out medical reasons to avoid treatment.
Does a PRP facial hurt?
Most people describe mild discomfort. A topical numbing cream may help, and any soreness usually fades within a few days.
How long does a PRP facial take?
Time varies with your treatment plan and includes the blood draw and plasma preparation. Our team will let you know how long to plan for when you book.
How long do PRP facial results last?
Results vary, but many people enjoy them for several months to a year or more. Maintenance sessions every few months can help.
Is there downtime after a PRP facial?
Downtime is minimal. Temporary redness, swelling, and bruising are common for a few days, and most people resume normal activities quickly.
Is PRP the same as PRF?
They are related but not identical. Both use your own blood, but PRF (platelet rich fibrin) is prepared differently and forms a fibrin matrix. Visit our PRF page to compare, or read What Is i-PRF and Why Do Both Women and Men Love It.
