PRP Therapy at RE:BERRY Myeongdong Seoul
RE:BERRY Myeongdong harnesses your body’s own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for advanced skin rejuvenation, hair restoration, and scar healing. Two Aesthetic Medicine Specialists perform PRP therapy using hospital-grade centrifuge systems to isolate concentrated growth factors from your blood, then deliver them via micro-injection or combination with devices like Potenza RF for amplified regenerative results.
What Is PRP Therapy and How Is It Performed at RE:BERRY Myeongdong?
PRP therapy at RE:BERRY Myeongdong extracts 10-20ml of your blood, concentrates platelets to 3-5x baseline levels via centrifugation, and micro-injects the growth factor-rich plasma into targeted areas for skin rejuvenation, hair regrowth, or scar reduction, with consultation required for personalized pricing.
Platelet-rich plasma therapy represents one of the most natural approaches to skin rejuvenation and tissue regeneration available in modern aesthetic medicine. Unlike synthetic fillers or energy-based devices, PRP therapy uses your own blood as the raw material, concentrating the platelets and growth factors that your body already produces for wound healing and tissue repair. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, Head Director Seung-Jae Baek (Lic.143338) performs PRP therapy for three primary indications: facial skin rejuvenation (the ‘vampire facial’), androgenetic alopecia (hair loss), and acne scar improvement. The entire process takes approximately 60-90 minutes, including blood draw, centrifugation, and injection. Because PRP therapy uses autologous material (from your own body), allergic reactions are virtually impossible, making it one of the safest regenerative treatments available. RE:BERRY Myeongdong frequently combines PRP therapy with complementary treatments such as Potenza RF microneedling or exosome therapy for enhanced growth factor delivery. The clinic is located 2 minutes from Myeongdong Station Exit 8, open 365 days a year with 8-language support.
How PRP Therapy Works at RE:BERRY Myeongdong
A four-step protocol from blood draw to growth factor delivery, completed in a single visit.
Blood Collection & Health Screening
Dr. Seung-Jae Baek begins PRP therapy with a brief health screening to confirm suitability. A trained nurse draws 10-20ml of venous blood from your arm — roughly 2-4 teaspoons. This small volume is sufficient to produce a concentrated PRP preparation. Patients taking blood thinners, those with platelet disorders, or active infections are counseled accordingly. The blood draw takes approximately 5 minutes and uses a sterile closed-system kit to prevent contamination.
Centrifugation & Platelet Concentration
Your blood is placed in a hospital-grade centrifuge at RE:BERRY Myeongdong that spins at controlled speeds for 10-15 minutes. This separates the blood into three layers: red blood cells (bottom), platelet-poor plasma (top), and the golden platelet-rich plasma layer in the middle. The PRP fraction contains 3-5 times the baseline platelet concentration, rich in growth factors including PDGF, TGF-beta, VEGF, and EGF that drive tissue regeneration. The entire centrifugation process is performed in-house at the clinic.
Targeted PRP Injection or Device-Assisted Delivery
For facial rejuvenation, Dr. Hoon-Sung Son (Lic.125783) micro-injects PRP therapy directly into the dermis using a 30-gauge needle across the cheeks, forehead, and periorbital areas. For hair restoration, injections target the scalp dermis at the level of the hair follicle bulge. For enhanced penetration, RE:BERRY Myeongdong combines PRP therapy with Potenza RF microneedling, which creates micro-channels that allow growth factors to penetrate 400% deeper than topical application. This combination approach maximizes the regenerative effect of PRP therapy for scalp PRP and facial rejuvenation alike.
Recovery & Follow-Up Protocol
PRP therapy at RE:BERRY Myeongdong has minimal downtime. Expect mild redness and pinpoint marks at injection sites for 12-24 hours. Avoid direct sun, saunas, and heavy exercise for 48 hours. Results emerge gradually as growth factors stimulate collagen synthesis and cellular regeneration over 4-6 weeks. Most patients see optimal results after 3 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Dr. Seung-Jae Baek provides remote follow-up via WhatsApp or LINE to track your progress after you leave Seoul.

The Science Behind PRP Therapy for Skin and Hair
Peer-reviewed evidence supporting platelet-rich plasma therapy in aesthetic medicine and hair restoration.
Growth Factor Mechanisms in PRP Therapy
Platelet-rich plasma contains a concentrated reservoir of growth factors released upon platelet activation. The key signaling molecules include platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), and insulin-like growth factor (IGF). When injected into the dermis, these growth factors bind to cell surface receptors on fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and stem cells, initiating cascades that promote collagen synthesis, angiogenesis, and extracellular matrix remodeling. The result is measurable improvement in skin thickness, elasticity, and hydration. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, PRP therapy preparations are standardized to achieve 3-5x baseline platelet concentration using a double-spin centrifugation protocol, ensuring consistent growth factor delivery across sessions.
PRP Therapy for Facial Rejuvenation
Elnehrawy et al. conducted a split-face randomized controlled trial comparing PRP therapy with normal saline injection for facial rejuvenation. The PRP-treated side demonstrated statistically significant improvement in skin elasticity, wrinkle depth, and overall photodamage scores at 3 months, with histological analysis confirming increased dermal collagen density. The study confirmed that PRP therapy produces genuine biological tissue remodeling rather than a temporary volumizing effect. RE:BERRY Myeongdong enhances PRP therapy outcomes by combining autologous plasma with skin boosters like Rejuran and Juvelook, creating a cocktail of biological and synthetic regenerative agents.
PRP Therapy for Androgenetic Alopecia
PRP therapy has emerged as a leading non-pharmaceutical treatment for hair loss. Gentile et al. published a landmark study demonstrating that PRP therapy increased hair count by an average of 33.6 hairs per cm2 and hair thickness by 0.01mm at 12 months in patients with androgenetic alopecia. The growth factors in PRP, particularly PDGF and VEGF, stimulate dermal papilla cell proliferation and prolong the anagen (active growth) phase of the hair cycle. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, scalp PRP therapy is performed using a dedicated scalp injection protocol that targets the dermal papilla region at 2-3mm depth across the affected areas.
Combination Protocols: PRP Therapy with Microneedling
The combination of PRP therapy with microneedling or RF microneedling has been shown to produce significantly superior outcomes compared to either treatment alone. Ibrahim et al. demonstrated that PRP combined with microneedling resulted in 62.2% improvement in acne scars compared to 45.3% with microneedling alone. The micro-channels created by devices like Potenza RF at RE:BERRY Myeongdong allow PRP growth factors to penetrate the dermal layer more efficiently, reaching fibroblasts and stem cells at deeper tissue levels than topical or superficial injection alone.

Frequently Asked Questions About PRP Therapy in Myeongdong Seoul
Expert answers from RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s Aesthetic Medicine Specialists on platelet-rich plasma therapy.
₩99,000 for a first-visit Rejuran Healer 1cc regenerative starter. Full PRP therapy custom protocols are priced based on treatment area and session count after consultation with Dr. Seung-Jae Baek. Combination packages with Potenza RF or skin boosters range from ₩1,090,000-1,390,000 at RE:BERRY Myeongdong.
40-50% less expensive than equivalent PRP therapy in the US or Japan. A single PRP facial session costs $500-1,500 USD in the US versus significantly less in Korea. RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s regenerative packages include complementary devices like Potenza RF that would cost extra at Western clinics.
2 fundamentally different biological sources. PRP therapy uses concentrated platelets from your own blood (autologous), while exosome therapy uses lab-cultured cell-derived vesicles. PRP has zero allergy risk since it is your own tissue. Exosomes may offer more concentrated signaling molecules. RE:BERRY Myeongdong offers both and can combine them.
3 different mechanisms make them complementary rather than competing. PRP delivers concentrated growth factors, Rejuran Healer provides salmon-derived polynucleotide DNA for tissue repair, and combining both produces synergistic regeneration. Dr. Seung-Jae Baek at RE:BERRY Myeongdong often recommends PRP + Rejuran together.
33.6 additional hairs per cm2 at 12 months was demonstrated in clinical trials. PRP therapy stimulates dormant hair follicles by delivering PDGF and VEGF directly to the dermal papilla. RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s scalp PRP protocol typically requires 3 sessions at 4-6 week intervals for measurable hair density improvement.
100% safe to fly the same day after PRP therapy at RE:BERRY Myeongdong. There are no restrictions on altitude, cabin pressure, or travel. Mild redness from injection points resolves within 12-24 hours. Simply avoid direct sun exposure and saunas for 48 hours.
60-90 minutes total including blood draw (5 minutes), centrifugation (10-15 minutes), numbing cream application (20 minutes), and PRP injection (15-30 minutes). If combined with Potenza RF, add 20-30 minutes. One appointment covers the entire PRP therapy process.
2-4 out of 10 pain rating with topical numbing cream applied 20 minutes before injection. The blood draw feels like a standard blood test. PRP injections use a fine 30-gauge needle. Most patients at RE:BERRY Myeongdong describe the sensation as mild prickling.
3 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. Initial improvement appears after the first session, but cumulative collagen building from 3 sessions delivers the best outcome. RE:BERRY Myeongdong then recommends 1-2 maintenance sessions per year.
2-4 weeks for initial skin improvement, with progressive results over 3-6 months. Hair regrowth from scalp PRP therapy typically becomes visible at 2-3 months. Peak results for skin rejuvenation occur after completing 3 sessions at RE:BERRY Myeongdong.
0 clinical trials have confirmed safety during pregnancy, so PRP therapy is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding as a precaution. RE:BERRY Myeongdong follows conservative guidelines and advises postponing treatment until after breastfeeding.
62.2% improvement in acne scars when PRP therapy is combined with microneedling, according to published clinical data. The growth factors in PRP stimulate fibroblasts to fill depressed scars with new collagen. RE:BERRY Myeongdong combines PRP with Potenza RF for the most effective acne scar reduction protocol.
1 treatment under 2 names — ‘vampire facial’ is a popular marketing term for PRP therapy combined with microneedling. The name refers to the use of your own blood. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, the medical team uses the clinical term PRP therapy and follows evidence-based protocols.
70% of PRP therapy patients at RE:BERRY Myeongdong receive combination treatments in the same session. Popular combinations include PRP + Potenza RF microneedling, PRP + Genesis laser, and PRP + Rejuran Healer. Dr. Seung-Jae Baek sequences treatments to maximize growth factor absorption.
2 levels of autologous regenerative treatment. PRP therapy concentrates platelets from a standard blood draw. Stem cell therapy at RE:BERRY involves more advanced processing to isolate autologous growth factors and cytokines. Stem cell packages start from ₩1,990,000 at our Incheon branch.
1 day per session at RE:BERRY Myeongdong. Each PRP therapy session is completed in 60-90 minutes with minimal downtime. If you can stay 5-6 weeks, you can complete the full 3-session protocol. Otherwise, start with 1 session and continue treatment locally or on your next Seoul visit.
48 hours before your PRP therapy appointment, avoid blood thinners (aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil), alcohol, and anti-inflammatory supplements. These can reduce platelet function and lower the quality of your PRP preparation. Stay well-hydrated on the day of treatment at RE:BERRY Myeongdong.
2-step double-spin centrifugation protocol produces 3-5x baseline platelet concentration. The first spin separates red blood cells, and the second spin concentrates the platelet layer further. This gold standard for PRP therapy preparation yields higher growth factor levels than single-spin methods.
2-3 sessions of PRP therapy injected into the periorbital area stimulates collagen and improves the thin skin under the eyes that allows dark vessels to show through. RE:BERRY Myeongdong combines under-eye PRP with Rejuran for under-eye treatment for comprehensive periorbital rejuvenation.
