How do PRP injections work?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is derived from your own blood and contains concentrated growth factors that encourage collagen production and tissue repair. When injected into the skin, these proteins help restore volume, improve hydration, and enhance your skin’s overall tone and texture. PRP does not fill or freeze. It supports your body’s natural healing process. After receiving our PRP injections in South Barrington, you may notice your skin looks smoother, brighter, and more youthful over time. This is especially true when your treatment is part of a series.

Can I combine PRP with other treatments?

Absolutely. PRP can enhance results when paired with microneedling , dermal fillers , or MOXI laser treatments. For example, applying PRP during a Plasma Pen treatment can help speed recovery and boost collagen production. It also supports skin before and after resurfacing treatments by improving hydration and elasticity. PRP is often part of a broader plan designed to refresh the skin in multiple layers. Patients receiving PRP injections in South Barrington often combine therapies to achieve a radiant, balanced glow that feels both natural and long-lasting.

What happens after I receive my PRP injections?

You may notice mild redness and swelling at the injection sites for a few days. These symptoms are common and temporary. In the following weeks, as your body responds to the treatment, your skin should feel more hydrated and vibrant. Avoiding makeup, sun, and strenuous activity for the first 24 hours allows your skin to recover properly. Once you receive PRP injections in South Barrington at Renee Burke MD, your provider will share aftercare steps to help protect your results and keep your skin feeling healthy and supported.

Is PRP safe for sensitive skin?

Because PRP comes from your own blood, there’s minimal risk of an allergic reaction or pigmentation concerns. It is especially well-suited for patients with reactive skin. Unlike lasers or harsh resurfacing treatments, PRP does not rely on heat or chemicals. It promotes biological repair, which makes it a gentle yet effective choice for many skin types.

Your Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Journey

At Renee Burke MD, we encourage you throughout every treatment process.

Consultation

We begin with a careful review of your skin, goals, and medical history. Once your provider confirms your eligibility, they explain how PRP can fit into your treatment plan.

Treatment

We take a small draw of your blood and spin it to isolate plasma. Then, your nurse injector places this powerful, platelet-rich serum into the treatment area, stimulating renewal.

Results

Your skin gradually brightens as collagen rebuilds. Within weeks, tone improves, texture softens, and your complexion appears refreshed, hydrated, and renewed from within.

I have been seeing Tracy at Dr Renee Burke’s MedSpa for the past year and there is no one else I would rather trust with my skin/face! Tracy is so welcoming, making you feel comfortable and ease throughout the whole process. She listens and does not try and push products or services on you. I first saw Tracy for lip filler and botox. Tracy has fixed past work other MedSpas did and suggested new treatments that have since made me feel a lot more confident. Recently, Tracy suggest I try the Moxi Laser to help treat my sun damage. This was the best money I have ever spent & I can’t wait to come back and do it again! Whether you are looking for a good injector or esthetician for facials and lasers, Tracy is your girl!

I am very happy with the treatment I received at Dr Burke’s clinic! I’m ver impressed with the professional yet friendly environment. I was little apprehensive before treatments and in fact I put it off several times. But Tracy, the nurse injector has been amazing! She never rushed me into anything. She understood that it’s a big decision, especially when it comes to your face. But I could not be happier! I love my Botox and fillers results. I never knew how much it can boost your confidence. Thank you Tracy!!
