Incheon AirportWhat is a PRP facial in Gangnam, and how is it different from scalp PRP?
A PRP facial at RE:BERRY in Gangnam takes a small draw of your own blood, concentrates the platelet-rich plasma on a double-spin MFDS-cleared centrifuge, and returns it to the face by fine microinjection so your own growth factors can support the skin's collagen response. It works on facial concerns โ crepey texture, enlarged pores, fine lines, dullness โ where scalp PRP is aimed at thinning hair. The material is entirely autologous, the physician handles every stage from draw to injection, and a facial course is usually three sessions about four weeks apart. There is no wound; pinpoint marks and mild redness settle within a day or two, and the same physician often pairs it with an MTS or laser step chosen from what your skin actually needs.
Effects & Progress
Effects & Progress
A PRP facial delivers your own concentrated platelets into the facial dermis, so the regenerative signalling is distributed across the treated skin as a spread of fine microinjection points rather than acting at one isolated spot.
Pinpoint injection marks and mild redness are the expected recovery and usually settle within a day or two. Mineral makeup is generally fine again the next day, and most guests resume daily life immediately with written facial aftercare.
Skin often reads a touch smoother and better hydrated as early growth-factor signalling begins in the facial dermis, before any change in fine lines or pores becomes visible.
The main renewal phase โ texture smooths and pore condition improves as platelet growth factors stimulate fibroblasts through the treated dermis. Response speed and degree vary with individual platelet quality and age.
Review and course planning. The collagen response tends to peak around the third month, and the physician reads your photographed face before guiding a light maintenance rhythm suited to your skin.

Effects & Progress
Facial skin-quality concerns rarely sit in one place โ crepey texture, enlarged pores, and dullness spread across the cheeks, under-eyes, and perioral area as the dermis loses density. A PRP facial delivers your own concentrated platelet-rich plasma through a spread of fine microinjection points, so the regenerative signalling reaches the whole treated zone evenly in each session. The injectate is prepared on a double-spin MFDS-cleared system and used for your session alone, making the treatment a dermal-stimulating booster built entirely from your own biology.
A PRP facial is planned as a short in-clinic visit. A topical numbing cream is worked across the face beforehand, so the microinjections feel like quick pinpricks for most guests, and the injecting phase runs a short while depending on how much of the face is covered. Recovery is light to match: pinpoint injection marks and mild redness usually settle within a day or two, mineral makeup is generally fine again the next day, and there is no wound or dressing to manage. Many guests are back out in Gangnam the same evening.
The change from a PRP facial arrives gradually because it works through your skin's own repair cells. Platelet growth factors recruit and activate dermal fibroblasts, collagen production increases, and texture, pore condition, and fine lines improve progressively over the weeks after each session. Hydration and glow tend to shift first, with the main texture change following as the dermis remodels. A facial course is planned across sessions spaced weeks apart because the response compounds, the collagen response tends to peak around the third month, and individual results vary with platelet quality and age.
A PRP facial is planned flexibly around your skin rather than sold as a fixed package. From the full-face reading the physician sets how many sessions your texture and pores actually call for, whether a single visit or a course fits your goals, and whether the surface also needs an MTS microneedling channel or a gentle laser day planned alongside on a separate visit. Because PRP delivers growth factors into the dermis but does nothing to the surface itself, that pairing lets each step work on the part of the skin-quality problem it is for. Every figure is confirmed in writing before anything is scheduled, with no add-on charges beyond the written quote.

What a PRP Facial Gives the Skin, and How the Weeks After Unfold
- An injectate that is entirely yours: your own blood is concentrated on a double-spin MFDS-cleared system, so the growth-factor signalling returned to your face was prepared from your own platelets and verified for your session alone
- A regeneration aim, not a filling one: PRP works on texture, pore condition and fine lines by supporting your skin's own collagen response, which is a different goal from adding volume or relaxing muscle
- A face-specific plan: the physician maps injection zones to where your skin quality actually drops across the cheeks, under-eyes, and perioral area, so no zone follows a fixed template drawn for another patient
- Physician-only, draw to injection: Korean law keeps autologous blood handling with the licensed doctor, so one pair of hands draws, spins and injects and reads your follow-up
- Room for combination: PRP delivers growth factors into the dermis and leaves the surface untouched, so it is often staged with an MTS microneedling channel or a gentle laser step, letting the two act on different parts of the same skin-quality problem
- Minimal, honest downtime: pinpoint marks and mild redness settle within 12 to 48 hours, there is no wound, and daily life resumes the same day
| Timeline | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| Recovery, not results: mild redness and pinpoint injection marks are the expected reaction and typically fade within 12 to 48 hours. There is no wound, and most guests are back out in Gangnam the same evening | |
| Bruising, if any, clears and skin often reads a touch smoother and better hydrated to the touch as early signalling begins, before any change in fine lines is visible | |
| The main build phase across the treated dermis: texture and pore condition improve gradually as fibroblasts respond, and the next session in the three-session course is timed around this window | |
| Where collagen response tends to peak. A completed course generally holds through the following months, with the physician guiding a light maintenance rhythm from your photographed response |

Why This Matters
The single most common mix-up is treating PRP as one treatment. The preparation is the same idea: your own platelets, concentrated on a cleared centrifuge. A facial course, though, is planned around skin quality, so injection depth, zone mapping and session spacing are set for texture, pores and fine lines, while a scalp course is set for follicular signalling. Scalp PRP and facial PRP share a tube and a spin; they do not share a plan, and the physician reads the face on its own terms before any course is set. A facial session is quoted at โฉ19,000 (about $14) in writing after your skin is read, never off a poster.
PRP delivers growth factors into the dermis but does nothing to the surface itself, so it pairs naturally with a channel-opening or resurfacing step. An MTS microneedling pass can be used to open fine channels so the plasma sits where it is needed, and a gentle laser day addresses pigment or surface roughness that growth factors alone will not shift. The physician sequences these across separate days instead of stacking everything into one visit, so each step works on the part of the skin-quality problem it is actually for.
KHIDI's 2025 international patient survey found 41.4% of respondents rank keeping the same doctor throughout as their leading criterion. For a treatment made from your own blood, that continuity is structural: the physician who reads your face draws and spins your blood, places every microinjection, and reads your photographed progress, so the whole course sits with one pair of hands.

Why a Facial PRP Is Built the Way It Is
What a PRP facial can do rests on what is actually in the injectate, so the physician runs the double spin personally and verifies the batch for your session. Platelet-rich plasma is defined by its platelet concentration. Quantification work analyzing platelet counts and the growth factors released from prepared PRP showed how tightly the two track: a concentrated preparation carries proportionally more of the PDGF, TGF-beta, VEGF and EGF the treatment relies on than plasma left loosely spun.
Eppley BL, Woodell JE, Higgins J. Platelet quantification and growth factor analysis from platelet-rich plasma: implications for wound healing. Plast Reconstr Surg. 2004;114(6):1502-1508. doi:10.1097/01.prs.0000138251.07040.51
Because the material and its labelling vary so widely between clinics, a review of the history, biology, mechanism and classification of platelet-rich plasma stresses that how a preparation is made governs what it can honestly claim to do. PRP is described by its platelet content, and is not sold here as a vague growth-factor shot. So a facial course is planned and quoted around a defined double-spin preparation with a real name on it, and the physician explains at the reading that individual platelet quality shifts with age and health.
Alves R, Grimalt R. A review of platelet-rich plasma: history, biology, mechanism of action, and classification. Skin Appendage Disord. 2018;4(1):18-24. doi:10.1159/000477353
Marx RE. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP): what is PRP and what is not PRP? Implant Dent. 2001;10(4):225-228. doi:10.1097/00008505-200110000-00002
On the face specifically, a controlled evaluation of platelet-rich plasma injected into facial skin measured changes in skin appearance over a follow-up window, supporting a gradual, texture-led response that builds over weeks. So a facial course is spaced across weeks and read against standardized photos. Work on platelet-rich fibrin matrix for deepening facial folds sits in the same regenerative family and reinforces the pairing logic: an autologous platelet preparation supports the dermis from within, while a resurfacing or channel-opening step handles the surface it cannot reach. The physician therefore screens what your skin needs first and, where the surface calls for it, plans an MTS or laser day alongside the PRP so one modality is never asked to carry the whole result.

Questions International Guests Ask About a PRP Facial in Gangnam
How is a PRP facial different from scalp PRP?
The preparation is the same idea, but the plan is not. Both draw a little of your own blood and concentrate the platelets on a cleared centrifuge, yet a facial course is planned around skin quality โ texture, pores, fine lines โ so the injection depth, the mapped zones and the spacing are set for the face. Scalp PRP is planned around follicular signalling on a living follicle. At RE:BERRY the physician reads the face on its own terms before setting any course.
What exactly is being injected into my face?
Your own concentrated platelet-rich plasma, and nothing donor-derived or synthetic. A small volume of your blood is drawn, then a double-spin cycle on an MFDS-cleared centrifuge separates and packs the platelet-rich fraction, the part that carries growth factors such as PDGF, TGF-beta, VEGF and EGF. That concentrate is returned to your dermis by fine microinjection and used for your session alone.
Why does the physician use a double spin?
Two spins concentrate the platelets more tightly than a single pass, so the growth-factor signalling returned to the skin is denser. Research quantifying platelet counts against the growth factors PRP releases shows the two track closely. That is the reason the physician runs the double-spin protocol personally and confirms the batch belongs to your session before it is opened.
How many PRP facial sessions will I need?
Most facial plans run three sessions about four weeks apart, because the collagen response compounds and tends to peak around month three. The exact count is set from your full-face reading and is never sold as a fixed package, and the physician reviews your photographed response before recommending any following session or a light maintenance rhythm.
Does a PRP facial hurt?
A topical numbing cream is worked across the face for roughly 20 to 30 minutes before the injections, which makes the fine passes manageable for most guests, though it is not entirely sensation-free. People generally describe the microinjections as quick pinpricks, and the physician adjusts pace zone by zone to your feedback across the session.
How much downtime does a PRP facial have, and can I fly home after?
Downtime is light. Pinpoint injection marks and mild redness usually settle within 12 to 48 hours, mineral makeup is generally fine again by the next day, and there is no wound. Many international guests book the session near the end of a Seoul trip and fly home the next day, then continue any follow-up review remotely.
Can a PRP facial be combined with microneedling or laser?
Yes, and it often is, because PRP delivers growth factors into the dermis but does nothing to the surface itself. An MTS microneedling pass can open fine channels so the plasma sits where it is needed, and a gentle laser day handles pigment or surface roughness that growth factors will not shift. The physician sequences these on the right days, and does not stack them into one visit.
Who performs the blood draw and the injections?
One licensed physician does every stage. Korean law reserves autologous blood handling for the licensed doctor, so the same person draws your blood, runs the double-spin centrifuge, and places each facial microinjection. Nothing is passed to an assistant mid-session, and that single chain of hands is what keeps the platelet preparation consistent from one visit to the next.
Is a PRP facial the same as a skin booster like Rejuran?
No. A polynucleotide skin booster uses a manufactured, salmon-DNA-derived material from a sealed vial with no blood draw, while a PRP facial uses your own concentrated platelets. Both aim at skin quality and neither adds volume, so the physician chooses between them, or plans them on separate tracks, based on your skin and what your goals actually call for.
When will I see results from a PRP facial?
Changes build gradually, not overnight. Skin often reads a touch smoother and better hydrated within the first week, then texture and pore condition improve across weeks three to six as fibroblasts respond, with the collagen response tending to peak around month three. A controlled evaluation of PRP injected into facial skin measured this kind of gradual change over follow-up. So a course is read against standardized photos, and a single session is a poor moment to judge the result.
What aftercare does a PRP facial need?
Aftercare is straightforward. Skip makeup for about 12 hours, avoid sauna, alcohol and intense exercise on the treatment day, keep the skin moisturized with a ceramide cream, and use daily SPF50+ while the skin recovers. Holding off on retinol for a week is sensible, and you leave with all of this written down; there is no wound or dressing to manage.
Am I a good candidate for a PRP facial?
Good candidates have facial skin-quality concerns such as crepey texture, enlarged pores, dullness, or early fine lines, and want a regenerative treatment made from their own blood over a synthetic filler. Because the material is autologous, response varies with individual platelet quality and age, so the physician is candid about that at the reading and redirects volume or laxity goals to a different product first.
Is a PRP facial autologous, and what does that mean for safety?
It is fully autologous โ the injectate starts as your own blood and returns to your own skin, with nothing donor-derived or synthetic added. Because the source is your own plasma, the physician still reviews your platelet-related history and medications at the reading and describes the treatment honestly as aesthetic skin rejuvenation, not the treatment of any disease. Individual response varies and specific outcomes are not promised.

Science PRP facial preparation and skin response โ selected references
How a PRP facial is prepared and paced traces directly to the evidence on what is in the injectate and how it behaves in skin. Eppley (2004) quantified platelet counts against the growth factors released from prepared PRP, showing how closely concentration and growth-factor yield track and why a double-spin preparation matters. Alves (2018) reviews the biology, mechanism and classification of platelet-rich plasma and stresses that how a preparation is made governs what it can honestly claim, while Marx (2001) defines PRP by its platelet content and warns against a generic label. Yuksel (2014) evaluated platelet-rich plasma injected into facial skin and measured a gradual change over follow-up, consistent with a course spaced across weeks and read against standardized photos, and Sclafani (2010) reports an autologous platelet-rich fibrin matrix improving deep facial folds, reinforcing why a resurfacing or channel-opening step is planned alongside PRP and not expected to come from it.

These references frame how a PRP facial is handled at RE:BERRY's Gangnam aesthetic clinic: a physician-run draw and double-spin centrifugation on a cleared system so the platelet preparation stays consistent and is described precisely; a three-session-then-maintenance rhythm matched to how gradually the facial collagen response builds; standardized full-face photographs from day one so progress is read against a real baseline; and, where the surface calls for it, an MTS or laser step planned alongside the PRP to complement it.
