What Is Personalized PRP Injection?

Smart Skin Clinic’s personalized PRP injections area treatment that injects a formulation combining PRP (platelet-rich plasma) with added FGF (fibroblast growth factor)..

PRP: An ingredient extracted from your own blood, rich in growth factors
FGF: Fibroblast growth factor. An ingredient that powerfully promotes skin regeneration

By combining these two, PRPF injection is designed to deliver more powerful results than conventional PRP therapy.

In addition, because Smart Skin Clinic does the following, even greater results can be achieved:

✔️ Precise diagnosis of each individual’s condition
✔️ Tailor-made dosage design
✔️ Precise injection by a skilled doctor

The nasolabial folds are dramatically improved.This is something you can see for yourself.

This effect lasts about 5 years—this is a major feature of personalized PRP injections.

Three Features of Personalized PRP Injection

1. Long-term results and cost performance

The effecttypically lasts 5 years or more. Because the results of a single treatment last for an extended period, it offers excellent cost performance.

2. Natural rejuvenation effect

Because it uses ingredients derived from your own body, the results look natural. It enhances the skin's own regenerative power, so there is no unnatural appearance.

3. Customized treatment

At our clinic, we adjust the concentration and injection volume to suit each patient’s skin condition and goals, and design the injections on an individual basis.

Mechanism of Personalized PRP injections: why are they effective for nasolabial folds?

The main reasons personalized PRP injections are effective for nasolabial folds are as follows:Four Mechanismsis due to

1. Promoting Collagen Production

The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and FGF contained in personalized PRP injections stimulate fibroblasts. As a result, collagen production is promoted, improving skin firmness and elasticity. This helps improve the sagging skin that causes nasolabial folds.

2. Promoting elastin production

FGF also promotes elastin production. Elastin is a key protein that maintains skin elasticity, and increasing it helps the skin around the nasolabial folds become more supple.

3. Improving skin thickness

Through the action of personalized PRP injections, the dermal layer of the skin becomes thicker. This reduces the appearance of nasolabial folds and gives an overall more youthful impression.

4. Boosting circulation

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) promotes the formation of new blood vessels. Improved circulation activates skin metabolism, leading to an overall improvement in skin quality around the nasolabial folds.

The combined action of these mechanisms helps improve the appearance of nasolabial folds.

and elasticity to the skin overall

Comparison with Other Treatments

1. Comparison with Hyaluronic Acid Injection

・Personalized PRP injection: a low allergy risk thanks to autologous components, and long-term skin regeneration effects
Hyaluronic acid: gives immediate volume, but is absorbed within 6-12 months. It also carries a risk of vascular occlusion, so care is needed.

2. Comparison with Botox injections

・Personalized PRP injection: improves the skin quality itself and maintains natural expression
Botox: temporarily relaxes facial muscles, which may result in a stiffer expression

3. Comparison with facelift surgery

・Personalized PRP injection: non-invasive, with quick recovery and natural-looking results
Facelift: can achieve dramatic change, but carries significant surgical risk and downtime

Personalized PRP Injection Procedure

1. Blood draw: A small amount of blood is drawn from the patient's arm
2. PRP extraction: PRP is extracted using a specialized centrifuge
3. FGF addition: FGF is added to the extracted PRP
4. Injection design: we create the design best suited to your concerns
5. Injection: a fine needle is used to inject the skin around the nasolabial folds

The needles used are extremely fine, minimizing pain. Anesthetic cream can also be used if needed.

Precautions and Side Effects

Personalized PRP injections are relatively safe, but the following temporary side effects may occur:

・Mild swelling or bruising at the injection site
・Temporary pain or discomfort
