Fine lines, dull tone, and stubborn acne scars can make you feel like your skin no longer reflects how vibrant you feel inside. What if your body already held the secret to smoother, firmer, more luminous skin? A platelet-rich plasma (PRP) facial harnesses your body’s natural healing power to refresh your complexion from the inside out.
At Old Town Med Spa, Dr. Nael Gharbi and Dr. Shazel Gharbi, known together as the MD Brothers, bring more than a decade of medical expertise and advanced aesthetic training to every PRP facial. As board-certified physicians in Aesthetic Medicine and among the top cosmetic providers in Chicago, they deliver natural, beautiful results you can trust.
What Is a PRP Facial?
PRP is a powerful substance drawn from your own blood. Platelets are the cells responsible for healing, and they release growth factors that stimulate collagen production, tissue regeneration, and cell renewal. A PRP facial pairs this concentrated plasma with microneedling or fractional laser energy to amplify rejuvenation.

Who Is a Good Candidate?
PRP facials are ideal for adults who want to improve skin quality without surgery or synthetic injectables. If you’re bothered by early signs of aging, sun damage, textural irregularities, or scarring, this treatment may be right for you. Your provider will review your skin and health history during a consultation to confirm it’s a good fit.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your PRP facial begins with a quick blood draw from your arm. While a special machine separates your platelet-rich plasma, your provider applies a topical numbing cream to help with comfort. Next, microneedling or fractional laser energy creates controlled micro-channels in the skin, gently removing damaged cells and triggering a natural healing response.
The PRP is then applied topically, soaking deep into the freshly treated layers to supercharge regeneration. Most sessions take 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
Recovery and Results
Plan for a little downtime. Expect mild redness, puffiness, and possibly minor bruising for one to two days. Be gentle with your skin, skip exfoliation, and apply broad-spectrum sunscreen daily. Over-the-counter pain relievers can ease any tenderness.
As your skin settles over the following week, you’ll begin to notice a smoother, firmer, more radiant complexion. Results continue to improve as collagen rebuilds in the weeks ahead.
