Treatment Overview
Aqua PRP Rejuvenation is an advanced skin revitalization treatment that combines platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with hydrating boosters such as hyaluronic acid (HA), vitamins, peptides, or antioxidants. This dual-action therapy delivers both the regenerative power of PRP and the deep hydration of skin boosters, resulting in firmer, plumper, and more radiant skin.
In Korea, Aqua PRP Rejuvenation is widely performed under Dermatology: Skin Rejuvenation for patients seeking the “dewy glass-skin effect” with the added benefits of natural collagen stimulation. Unlike standard PRP or fillers alone, Aqua PRP offers a hybrid approach for glow, elasticity, and long-term skin health.
Purpose & Benefits
- Deep Hydration: Combines HA with PRP for instant plumpness and moisture.
- Collagen & Elastin Boost: Growth factors stimulate skin renewal and firmness.
- Radiant Glow: Restores a fresh, luminous complexion.
- Fine Line Reduction: Smooths wrinkles caused by dehydration and aging.
- Pore & Texture Refinement: Improves skin clarity and smoothness.
- Long-Term Regeneration: PRP promotes continuous healing and repair.
Ideal Candidates
- Adults with dull, dehydrated, or aging skin.
- Those experiencing early wrinkles, sagging, or loss of elasticity.
- Patients who want both hydration and regeneration instead of just volume.
- Men and women desiring natural glow without heavy fillers.
- Individuals open to multi-session treatments for long-lasting improvement.
Possible Risks & Complications
- Temporary redness, swelling, or pinpoint marks at injection sites.
- Mild bruising or tenderness that resolves within days.
- Low infection risk if aftercare is neglected.
- Rare uneven absorption if hydration levels vary.
- Minimal allergy risk since PRP is patient-derived.
Techniques Used
- PRP Extraction: Blood drawn and centrifuged to isolate growth factor–rich plasma.
- Aqua Injection Method: Mixture of PRP and HA boosters delivered evenly into the dermis.
- Microinjections / Mesotherapy: Fine needle application across treatment zones.
