Harness Your Body’s Rejuvenating Powers

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is an innovative treatment that leverages your body’s own regenerative abilities to enhance skin rejuvenation, support hair restoration, and improve overall aesthetic outcomes. PRP is created by extracting a small amount of your blood, which is then processed to isolate a concentrated solution of platelets and growth factors. These growth factors play a crucial role in stimulating collagen production, promoting tissue repair, and encouraging hair follicle activity.

What Is PRP Therapy?

The process begins with drawing a small amount of your blood, which is then spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma. These platelets, packed with growth factors, are then reintroduced into targeted areas through microneedling or direct injections to stimulate collagen production, enhance skin texture, and encourage hair follicle regeneration.

The Benefits of PRP Therapy

Aging can bring about unwanted changes, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and dull skin. If you’re seeking a way to refresh your appearance naturally, PRP therapy offers the following benefits:

  • Safe and Effective: Since PRP uses your blood, the risk of allergic reactions or adverse effects is minimal.
  • Minimal Downtime: This minimally invasive treatment requires little to no downtime, allowing you to quickly return to your daily activities.
  • Hair Restoration Benefits: PRP can also be used to stimulate hair growth by strengthening hair follicles, making it an effective solution for individuals experiencing thinning hair or hair loss.
  • Versatile Treatment: PRP can address various skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and overall texture.
  • Long-Lasting Results: The results of PRP therapy develop gradually and can last up to a year, offering a sustained improvement in skin quality.
  • Natural Rejuvenation: PRP uses your body’s natural resources to stimulate collagen and elastin production, providing a natural and subtle enhancement to your skin.

Patient Testimonials

I'm returning for more treatments, and looking forward to it!

I've seen Emily a couple times for Microneedling with PRP, and have always had a great experience. From being greeted upon entry with a beverage, to walking out to make my next appointment, everyone has been great. Emily is very personable and knowledgeable, and makes you feel at ease. I'm returning for more treatments, and looking forward to it!

I feel like I found my 'place'

Danielle went above and beyond for my last minute appointment. She did not have to accomodate my late walk in, but did so with grace and kindness. I feel like I found my 'place' and will only use Danielle for anything wrinkles-related in the future. I will definitely be back. She is a top notch injector and I highly recommend.

Fulcrum Aesthetics is truly world-class.

He is compassionate, listens with intent, and approaches his work with both preciison and charisma. there's no pretense with him - just skill, artistry, and a true commitment to helping you achieve the results you desire. The practice he and his wife, Brittony Croasdell, have built at Fulcrum Aesthetics is truly world-class.

Christina P.

Everyone has been so pleasant, informative, and helpful!

I've been going to Fulcrum for a few months now. I received Botox, Dysport, and facials in regards to services - all of which have been 10/10. Everyone from the front desk associates to the techs to the aestheticians to management have been so pleasant, informative, and helpful whenever I come in + they do a great job in post-treatment check-ins, which I really appreciate as a customer. Chris Martindale is my go-to guy. Oh, did I mention the space is GORGEOUS; very chic, curated, and you feel fabulous just stepping into the lobby.

Always achieves the look I want!

I see Brittony for my Botox and filler and she is a magician. Always achieves the look I want and makes it all as comfortable as possible.

Megan M.

10/10 recommend.

Y'all, get all your Botox injectables here! The front staff is beyond amazing. However the real VIP is Chris. I work in healthcare and I wouldn't trust anyone else in Chicago than Chris. He is beyond a perfectionist and hands down the best injector I know. I can't wait to go back. 10/10 recommend.

Gavin L.

Thank you, again, Danielle!

I was referred to Fulcrum from my boss and assured me this med spa was highly educated and very trustworthy, which they are! I went to Danielle for Botox and lip filler. I've never had lip filler before and Danielle walked me through each step, making my first experience comfortable and enjoyable. I am three days post injection and my bruising is very minimal. Thank you again, Danielle!

Amanda

Highly recommend!

Had a fantastic Botox experience at Fulcrum Aesthetics with Emilio! As a 50+ guy, I was worried about looking too stiff or unnatural, but Emilio totally got it. He listened to my concerns and gave me a look that's fresh and natural. If you're looking for someone who truly understands your needs and delivers, Emilio is your go-to. Highly recommend!

PRP Treatment Options

PRP Injections

PRP injections deliver concentrated growth factors directly into targeted areas, such as the face, to enhance skin texture, reduce fine lines, and promote natural tissue regeneration. This technique is ideal for restoring lost volume and improving overall skin health.

Microneedling with PRP

Microneedling with PRP, also known as the “vampire facial,” enhances collagen production by combining microneedling’s skin-rejuvenating effects with PRP’s regenerative properties. This treatment improves skin tone, texture, and elasticity while reducing the appearance of scars and wrinkles.

PRP for Hair Restoration

Thinning hair or early-stage hair loss can be distressing, but PRP therapy provides a promising solution. By injecting PRP directly into the scalp, the treatment stimulates dormant hair follicles, increases blood flow, and encourages natural hair regrowth. This procedure is ideal for both men and women experiencing hair thinning, helping to improve hair density and thickness over time.

PRP Recovery & Results

PRP therapy requires minimal recovery, allowing you to immediately return to your daily activities. Mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites are common, but these side effects should resolve within a few days. The results of PRP therapy develop gradually, with improvements in skin texture and tone becoming more noticeable over a few weeks. The rejuvenating effects can last up to a year, with periodic touch-up treatments recommended to maintain your results. To enhance and prolong your PRP results, consider incorporating complementary treatments such as microneedling or laser therapy and a regular at-home skincare routine, including a gentle cleanser, moisturizer, and regular SPF use. As your guide towards optimal skin wellness, we are happy to recommend skincare products and additional medspa treatments if you are interested.
