Treatment Overview
PRP Neck Tightening in Korea is a natural, regenerative skin rejuvenation treatment that uses the patient’s own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to improve sagging, wrinkles, and skin laxity in the neck. PRP is derived from the patient’s blood through a centrifugation process, which separates the platelet-rich plasma containing growth factors and healing proteins. When injected into the neck area, PRP stimulates collagen and elastin production, boosts circulation, and promotes overall skin renewal.
This treatment is popular in Korea because it offers natural results with no risk of allergy or rejection and is often combined with other advanced therapies like HIFU, microneedling RF, or PDO threads to achieve comprehensive neck rejuvenation.
Purpose & Benefits
- Firms and tightens loose neck skin naturally.

Ideal Candidates

Techniques Used
- PRP Injections: PRP is injected into targeted areas of the neck to stimulate collagen and skin repair.
- PRP with Microneedling: Microneedling creates micro-injuries, allowing PRP to penetrate deeply for enhanced rejuvenation.

- Normal activities can be resumed immediately.

- Apply sunscreen to protect healing skin.

Results & Longevity
- Short-term: Skin looks more hydrated and refreshed within days.
- Medium-term: Collagen remodeling improves firmness and smoothness over 2–3 months.
- Longevity: Results typically last 12–18 months, with maintenance sessions recommended yearly.
- Enhanced Outcomes: Combining PRP with microneedling RF, HIFU, or PDO threads can extend results and improve firmness.
