Cellenis® Derma PRP Gel in Cooper City

Your own platelets, prepared as a gel — regeneration with gentle structural support.

Overview

Every regenerative treatment at Ivy Wellness & Aesthetics starts the same way, with a small sample of your own blood. What separates Cellenis® Derma PRP from standard liquid PRP is what happens after that draw.

In addition to liquid PRP, we offer advanced PRP Gel, which is created by transforming platelet-rich plasma into a smooth, natural gel. PRP Gel combines regenerative growth factors with gentle structural support, making it an excellent option for selected areas such as the under-eyes and other regions where subtle volume enhancement and improved skin quality are desired. It is not intended to replace traditional dermal fillers, but it may be an excellent option for patients seeking a more natural regenerative approach.

The Cellenis® Derma PRP system

Our practice utilizes the Cellenis® Derma PRP system, an advanced medical PRP platform designed to produce high-quality platelet-rich plasma and PRP Gel for regenerative facial rejuvenation and hair restoration. This technology helps provide a consistent, physician-directed approach to regenerative treatments while using your body's own natural healing potential.

What it treats

Cellenis Derma PRP is a next-generation Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) facial treatment that uses a small amount of your own blood to prepare a concentrated serum. This PRP may help support skin health by encouraging collagen and elastin activity over time. The procedure may help improve the appearance of:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Uneven texture and tone
  • Mild volume loss in areas like the cheeks or under-eyes

Benefits

While individual results vary, many clients choose PRP facial injections for their potential to:

  • Provide a subtle, natural-looking boost in volume
  • Support long-term skin health and collagen production
  • Refresh skin tone and texture gradually
  • Offer a non-surgical alternative to traditional facelifts
  • Deliver gentle structural support to selected facial areas as a gel

Because it uses your own blood-derived growth factors, Cellenis Derma PRP is considered highly biocompatible and may be an option for those seeking more natural cosmetic solutions.

What to expect

The treatment typically takes about 60 minutes. After drawing a small sample of your blood, it is processed into a PRP serum. This is carefully injected into target areas such as the face, neck, décolletage, and hands. Most clients return to their usual routine the same or next day.

From blood draw to injection: what you feel

There are two distinct parts to this treatment and they feel different. The first is a routine blood draw from the arm: a short scratch, then pressure while the sample is taken. While your plasma is being processed, nothing at all is happening to you.

The second part is the injection. PRP Gel is placed with a fine needle or a cannula into areas such as the under-eyes, cheeks, neck or hands, and the under-eye region is the one patients ask about most, because the skin there is thin and unforgiving. Expect brief stinging at each entry point and a sense of pressure as the gel is positioned. Swelling and bruising in that area over the following days are common. Sensitivity is individual, and what your treatment involves is discussed with Dr. Lawson at your consultation.

Why choose Ivy Wellness & Aesthetics

Your PRP treatment is performed by Dr. Ivy Lawson, MD, a double board-certified vascular and interventional radiologist, with a focus on safety, natural-looking results and personalized care. The under-eye region is unforgiving territory, and it is the area patients most often ask about — which is exactly why a physician who works with the Ivy Ultrasound Center every day is the right person to assess it before anything is injected. If you already have filler in the area, it can be imaged and identified first.

PRP Gel is frequently planned alongside microneedling for surface texture, Sculptra for deeper collagen support, and dermal fillers where genuine structure is missing. Patients travel to our Flamingo Road practice from Cooper City, Davie, Weston and Southwest Ranches, and regenerative treatment series are covered by Ivy Wellness memberships.

Frequently asked questions

What is PRP Gel?

PRP Gel is PRP that has been transformed into a smooth gel, allowing regenerative growth factors to be delivered while providing gentle structural support in selected areas.

Is PRP Gel a filler?

PRP Gel is not a replacement for hyaluronic acid filler. It offers subtle volume enhancement while focusing on regeneration and improved skin quality.

Why do you use the Cellenis® Derma PRP system?

We use an advanced PRP platform to prepare high-quality PRP and PRP Gel as part of our physician-directed regenerative treatments.

Which areas can be treated?

Common areas include the face, neck, chest, and hands. Results may vary depending on skin type and overall health.

How many treatments are needed?

Most clients may benefit from a series of 2–3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, but individual plans are tailored by our licensed medical team.

What is recovery like?

Downtime is typically minimal. Some redness or swelling may occur and generally resolve within a few days.

Is PRP safe?

Because the serum is derived from your own blood, PRP treatments are generally well-tolerated. As with any medical procedure, results and side effects may vary.

When will I see results?

Some clients report a refreshed appearance shortly after treatment, with more visible improvements developing over several weeks as the skin responds to the PRP.

Is PRP Gel treatment uncomfortable?

There are two parts to it. The blood draw feels like any routine draw: a short scratch, then pressure. The injection stage is felt as brief stinging at each entry point and pressure as the gel is positioned. The under-eye area is thin and sensitive, and swelling or bruising there afterward is common. Sensitivity is individual, and what your treatment involves is discussed with Dr. Lawson at your consultation.
