Quick Overview
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a minimally invasive treatment option utilizing the body's own blood to regenerate new cellular growth and assist with healing. It has been discovered to have cosmetic benefits as well. Wellness by Design offers a range of PRP therapies for adults who want results without the risks of surgery. Victor Zuniga, MD, and his medical team use PRP from your blood to stimulate hair restoration, rejuvenate facial skin, improve sexual satisfaction in men and women, improve urinary incontinence in women, and treat many forms of joint and tendon problems.

Wellness by Design uses PRP for treatments like:
PRP therapy can support hair restoration in men and women by stimulating inactive follicles and encouraging the growth of thicker, healthier hair over time.
Injections of PRP into your upper and lower face rejuvenate your skin and restore a youthful appearance.
Dr. Zuniga also uses PRP during microneedling to promote facial skin rejuvenation, support collagen remodeling, and improve the overall health and appearance of your skin.
A PRP breast lift is a refined, nonsurgical treatment designed to enhance the natural beauty of the breasts by improving skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. Using your body’s own growth factors, PRP helps support smoother, healthier-looking skin and can provide a subtle boost in softness, fullness, and rejuvenation.
Vaginal PRP Therapy for women and the E-shot for men are advanced PRP treatments designed to support tissue renewal, enhance sensitivity, and promote greater sexual satisfaction. By using your body’s own growth factors, these therapies may help improve function, comfort, and confidence in intimate wellness.
Urinary Incontinence
PRP therapy can drastically improve symptoms for women who suffer from stress incontinence.
Joint and Tendon problems
Dr Zuniga and his staff utilize Ultrasound guided PRP techniques to improve the lives of individuals suffering from a variety of joint and tendon disorders. Examples include: knee arthritis, shoulder/hip bursitis and tendonopathies, golfer's and tennis elbow, achilles tendonitis, and plantar fascitis.
There is no need for recovery time, so you can resume your day immediately after your visit. Because PRP is created from your own blood, your body doesn’t reject the substance and the risk of negative effects is very low.
Some patients experience a very quick change in their joint inflammation, but in general it takes time to see the results from joint and tendon PRP therapy. Over the weeks and months following your injection, your body will rebuild healthy tissue and further reduce the inflammation that causes joint pain.
If you’re ready to learn more, book a visit using the easy online scheduling tool. You can also call the office to schedule an appointment, so don’t delay.
The therapies available at Wellness by Design use PRP extracted from your blood. Dr. Zuniga and his team draw a blood sample and use a centrifuge to separate PRP from other blood materials.
The resulting high concentration of PRP gets injected into the treatment area. Dr. Zuniga can apply a numbing cream over the injection sites to ensure your comfortable treatment.
PRP therapy doesn’t provide immediate results because it takes time for new cells to grow. Depending on the nature of your treatment, it can take up to a month to see the benefits.
