Abstract

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with skin booster is a popular treatment for improving skin quality and reducing the signs of aging. However, few studies have evaluated its clinical efficacy in patients with aging face. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy, adverse reactions, and follow-up results of targeted injection of PRP with skin booster in treating patients with aging face. The study included 80 patients treated with targeted injection of PRP with skin booster from July 2022 to February 2023. The doctors compared the changes of the patients' facial skin indicators, quality of life, and satisfaction with their appearance before and after treatment, and analyzed the clinical efficacy, adverse reactions, and follow-up results of the patients after treatment. After one course of treatment, the patients' facial skin indicators, quality of life, and satisfaction with their appearance improved significantly, with P < 0.05. The total clinical effective rate was 88.75%, and the incidence of adverse reactions was 6.25%. After half a year of follow-up, 48.75% of the patients were willing to receive further treatment, and their facial soft feel, natural expression, and self-feeling comfort had significantly improved. Targeted injection of PRP with skin booster is an effective and safe treatment for improving facial skin symptoms such as coarse pores and wrinkles in patients with aging face. The results of this study provide evidence for the clinical use of PRP with skin booster in aesthetic medicine.
