- Katherine’s approach
-
These treatments deliver growth factors or collagen-stimulating material into the skin, then let your body handle the rest. For PRP or EZ Gel the visit opens with a quick blood draw; the centrifuge then separates out a platelet concentrate carrying your natural repair signals. Sculptra works differently, using poly-L-lactic acid to trigger a steady collagen response.
During your complimentary consultation Katherine assesses skin quality, volume loss, and goals to determine which approach fits, on its own or layered with microneedling or filler.
- Who it’s for
-
Patients whose primary concern is skin quality, early hollowing, or overall firmness, and who prefer results that read as improved skin rather than added fullness. Many combine both worlds over time.
- The process
-
Appointments generally run 45 to 90 minutes, which depends on the treatment and the number of areas. Numbing cream is applied first, then most patients describe the injections as brief pressure or a quick pinch. The blood draw feels like any routine lab visit.
Most clients notice improvement in tone and texture within the first month, with firmness continuing to develop over 3 to 6 months as new collagen forms. A short series is usually recommended.
- Downtime
-
Most clients return to normal activities the same day. Expect some redness and swelling in the first 24 to 72 hours, with possible pinpoint bruising that fades within about a week. For the first day or so, stay out of the gym, the sauna, and the direct sun.
If you had Sculptra, follow the massage instructions you are given, since it matters for even results.

Common questions
Dermal filler adds volume immediately by placing product in the skin. Regenerative work recruits your own collagen response, so change arrives gradually, reading as better skin rather than added shape. Many clients use both.
Stay well hydrated and eat before you come in, especially before PRP or EZ Gel, since both start from a blood draw. Pause retinol and exfoliants for a few days, arrive with clean skin, check with your provider before stopping any medication.
It depends on the treatment. PRP and EZ Gel results generally hold for several months, improving across a series of 3 visits, each 4 to 6 weeks after the last. Sculptra is typically a series of 2 to 3 sessions, and because it builds your own collagen, results can last well over a year.
An injectable skin booster placed in the cheeks to improve skin smoothness. It sits between skincare and filler: no added shape, just better quality skin where it shows most.
