The PRP Facelift is an advanced, non-surgical procedure that combines the immediate volumizing effects of hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers with the long-term, biological regenerative power of your body’s own Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). This dual-action treatment not only restores lost volume but also stimulates deep cellular repair, improving skin quality, texture, and tone from within.
Feeling like your reflection no longer matches your inner vitality? At DRC360, we understand that true rejuvenation isn’t just about addressing a single line; it’s about restoring the ‘wholeness’ of your appearance. Our PRP Facelift is a cornerstone of our regenerative philosophy, designed to treat you, the person, first.

Is PRP Facelift the Right Solution for You?
This treatment is a powerful solution for patients who are experiencing multiple signs of aging simultaneously—volume loss, skin laxity, and a decline in skin quality. We find it provides the most comprehensive, natural-looking results when addressing the following concerns.
Common Conditions Addressed:
- Structural & Volume Loss:
- Hollowness in the cheeks or under-eye area (tear troughs)
- Sagging or drooping skin, especially in the mid-face
- Loss of youthful contour and definition
- Lines & Wrinkles:
- Smile lines (nasolabial folds)
- Lines around the mouth (marionette lines)
- Fine lines and “crepey” skin texture
- Overall Skin Quality:
- Dull, tired, or “grayish” skin tone
- Uneven skin texture
- Shallow acne scars
You Are an Ideal Candidate If:
You are a health-conscious adult who wants a significant, visible improvement in your facial contours and skin quality without the downtime or risks of surgery. You appreciate an integrative approach that blends the best of allopathic therapies (dermal fillers) with alternative, regenerative treatments (PRP). You are in good overall health and are looking for a long-lasting, natural result that helps you feel like your ideal self.
Our integrative approach is designed to help you achieve transformative results that are far more than skin-deep.
Your PRP Facelift Experience at DRC360
Our process is designed to be personal, precise, and centered on your comfort. We focus on creating a relaxed atmosphere where you never feel rushed.
- The Consultation: Listening First.
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with our medical team. This is our time to listen to your story and understand your goals. We will assess your unique facial anatomy, skin quality, and discuss the biochemical changes of aging, explaining every step of the procedure to create your personalized treatment plan. - The Procedure: Precision and Care.
The treatment itself is a two-part process. First, a small sample of your blood is drawn and placed in a centrifuge to isolate the concentrated, growth-factor-rich PRP. While this is prepared, we apply a topical numbing cream for your comfort. Dr. Cavazos, a certified Master Injector, or one of our expert physician assistants will then strategically inject the HA dermal filler to restore volume and structure. Finally, the PRP is injected into the same areas to deploy its regenerative power, stimulating new collagen and cellular renewal. - The Follow-Up: Ensuring Wholeness.
True care extends beyond the procedure. We provide exceptional follow-up to monitor your results and ensure your complete satisfaction. This treatment is about achieving ‘wholeness’, and we are your partners throughout that journey, ensuring your results look and feel natural.
Our Guiding Philosophy for PRP Facelift
At DRC360, we view the PRP Facelift as the perfect embodiment of our medical philosophy: a blend of advanced allopathic science and holistic, regenerative wellness. This procedure is never a mechanical act of just “filling lines”. It is a sophisticated, dual-layer rejuvenation that addresses both the structure and the biology of your skin.
Dr. Cavazos’s methodology, rooted in his 37 years of medical experience and board certification in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine, guides our practice. We first use the HA filler with an artist’s eye to rebuild the foundational scaffolding of the face—a skill honed by his Master Injector certification. Then, we introduce the PRP as a biological catalyst, activating your own cells to repair and revitalize the tissue. This integrative approach ensures the result is not only immediate but also sustainable, promoting genuine skin health for a look that is refreshed, not “done.”
What to Expect: Your Results Timeline
- Immediately After Treatment: You will see an immediate improvement in volume and contour from the dermal filler. You may experience some redness, swelling, or tenderness at the injection sites, which is normal and typically subsides within a day or two.
- The First Two Weeks: The initial swelling will resolve, and the filler will settle into its final position. Your skin may already feel softer and look brighter as the initial regenerative process begins.
- One to Three Months Post-Treatment: This is when the magic of PRP truly becomes visible. Your body’s collagen production will be in full swing, leading to noticeably firmer skin, improved texture, and a reduction in fine lines. Your skin will look healthier and more vibrant.
- Final Results: The benefits of the HA filler can last from 12 to 18 months, while the collagen and skin quality improvements from the PRP continue to develop for months and can last for over a year. We typically recommend a follow-up consultation to discuss a maintenance plan to keep your skin in its optimal state.
Frequently Asked Questions about PRP Facelift
How Much Does PRP Facelift Cost?
The cost of a PRP Facelift is personalized to each patient. It depends on the amount of dermal filler required to achieve your goals and the specific areas being treated. During your comprehensive consultation, we will create a precise treatment plan and provide you with a transparent quote.
Is PRP Facelift Painful?
We prioritize your comfort. A powerful topical numbing cream is applied before the injections begin. While you may feel a slight pinch or pressure during the injections, most patients report the procedure is very tolerable. Our team is known for its gentle, precise approach, ensuring you feel cared for and at ease.
How Does PRP Facelift Compare to Dermal Fillers Alone?
Dermal fillers are excellent for a single purpose: restoring lost volume. A PRP Facelift does that and more. By adding Platelet-Rich Plasma, you are also adding a powerful biological treatment that stimulates your body to create its own new collagen, elastin, and blood vessels. This means you don’t just get volume—you get improved skin texture, better tone, and long-term skin-health benefits that fillers alone cannot provide.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
While many patients are satisfied after just one treatment, a series of 2-3 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, is often recommended for the most dramatic and comprehensive regenerative results. This “stacking” of treatments builds a stronger collagen framework. Dr. C and the team will develop a plan based on your specific needs and aesthetic goals during your consultation.
You deserve to feel as vibrant on the outside as you do on the inside. At DRC360, we’ve created a nurturing, welcoming environment where your health and wellness are our top priority. We invite you to come in, relax, and explore your health challenges and aesthetic goals in a place where you will be truly heard.
