PRP Therapy in Pasadena, CA — Skin Rejuvenation & Stretch Mark Treatment

If you've been looking for a natural, non-synthetic way to improve your skin near Pasadena, CA — PRP therapy at Lean Lab may be exactly what you need. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) uses concentrated growth factors drawn from your own blood to stimulate collagen, improve skin texture, and reduce the appearance of stretch marks. No foreign substances. No synthetic fillers. Just your body's own biology, amplified.

What Is PRP?

PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma. It's a concentration of platelets and growth factors derived from your own blood. The process is simple:

• • A small amount of blood is drawn — similar to a routine blood draw
• • The blood is placed in a centrifuge and spun to separate the platelets
• • The resulting PRP concentrate — rich in growth factors — is applied or injected into the treatment area
• • Growth factors signal the skin to produce new collagen, improve texture, and accelerate cell renewal

Because PRP comes from your own blood, there is no risk of allergic reaction or rejection. It's one of the most natural regenerative treatments available.

PRP for Facial Skin Rejuvenation

PRP applied to the face — often combined with microneedling — is one of the most effective ways to stimulate deep collagen production and improve overall skin quality. At Lean Lab, our PRP facial treatments address:

• • Fine lines and early wrinkles
• • Dull, tired, or uneven skin tone
• • Rough skin texture and enlarged pores
• • Acne scars and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
• • Loss of skin firmness and early laxity
• • Overall skin radiance and glow

When combined with microneedling, the micro-channels created in the skin allow PRP growth factors to penetrate deeply — dramatically enhancing collagen stimulation compared to either treatment alone. Most patients notice brighter, smoother skin within 2–4 weeks, with continued improvement over 3 months.

PRP for Stretch Marks

Stretch marks are one of the most common skin concerns — and one of the hardest to treat. They form when the skin is stretched rapidly (during pregnancy, weight gain, or growth spurts), causing tears in the dermis that heal as scar tissue.

PRP is one of the most effective non-surgical options for improving stretch marks because it works at the dermal level — where the damage actually is. PRP growth factors:

• • Stimulate new collagen and elastin production in the affected area
• • Improve the texture and color of stretch marks over time
• • Reduce the depth and visibility of both red/purple (new) and white/silver (mature) stretch marks
• • Work on stretch marks anywhere on the body — abdomen, thighs, hips, arms, breasts

PRP for stretch marks is often combined with microneedling for enhanced penetration and results. A series of 3–6 sessions is typically recommended, spaced 4–6 weeks apart.

PRP + PRX — A Powerful Skin Combination

At Lean Lab, we frequently combine PRP with PRX Derm Perfexion for patients who want comprehensive skin renewal. This combination delivers:

• • PRX bio-revitalization at the surface — improving tone, brightness, and texture
• • PRP growth factors at the dermal level — stimulating collagen and cellular repair
• • Faster, more visible results than either treatment alone
• • No downtime — both treatments are non-invasive with minimal recovery

What to Expect at Your PRP Appointment

• • Blood draw (small amount — similar to a routine lab draw)
• • Centrifuge processing — approximately 10–15 minutes
• • Topical numbing applied to the treatment area for comfort
• • PRP applied with microneedling or injected into the target area
• • Total appointment time: approximately 45–60 minutes
• • Mild redness or sensitivity for 24–48 hours — resolves quickly
• • No significant downtime — most patients return to normal activities the next day
