If you’ve been searching for natural, non-surgical skin rejuvenation options in Aiken or Hilton Head Island, PRP therapy could be the solution you’ve been hoping for. At Novo Wellness Center, we use platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy to help patients restore a youthful glow, smooth fine lines, and improve skin texture—without synthetic fillers or harsh chemicals.
PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is a treatment that uses your own blood to stimulate collagen production and tissue repair. After drawing a small sample of blood, we isolate the platelets through centrifugation. These platelets are rich in growth factors that, when reintroduced to the skin, signal the body to repair and regenerate itself.
“PRP therapy works by enhancing your skin’s natural healing process. It’s one of the most organic ways to restore vitality to aging or damaged skin,” explains Dr. Eric Novitch, founder of Novo Wellness.
Unlike many cosmetic treatments that rely on external agents, PRP harnesses your body’s innate ability to heal. This makes it a compelling option for patients who prefer a holistic, minimally invasive approach.
Benefits include:
Improved skin tone and texture
Reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
Smoother, firmer skin
Diminished acne scars or sun damage
Accelerated healing after laser or microneedling treatments
A 2019 clinical review in Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics of North America reported that PRP therapy “has demonstrated significant efficacy in skin rejuvenation when used alone or in combination with microneedling.”¹
At Novo Wellness, we’ve seen an increasing number of South Carolina patients seeking more natural alternatives to traditional cosmetic treatments. Our PRP procedures are customized for each individual and may be combined with microneedling or other regenerative therapies to maximize outcomes.
Whether you're a retiree in Hilton Head wanting to reduce sun damage, or a professional in Aiken looking for subtle anti-aging, PRP offers personalized results with minimal downtime.
“I didn’t want to look ‘overdone’ or fake,” shares Jennifer M., a patient from Bluffton. “After PRP with Novo, my skin looks refreshed and healthier. It’s like I turned back the clock naturally.”
Here’s what you can expect when you book a PRP facial treatment with us:
Consultation – We evaluate your skin concerns, goals, and suitability for PRP.
Blood Draw – A small sample is taken and spun in a centrifuge to isolate growth factors.
Application – The PRP is applied topically or injected into the skin using a fine needle or microneedling device.
Recovery – There’s little to no downtime; some patients experience mild redness or tightness for 24–48 hours.
For optimal results, a series of 2–3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart is typically recommended. Maintenance treatments may be done every 6–12 months depending on individual skin health and goals.
Traditional fillers and laser treatments can deliver fast results but often come with risks like allergic reactions or overcorrection. PRP, by contrast, is autologous—it comes from your own body—making it one of the safest options for aesthetic enhancement.
It’s also highly adaptable. PRP can be used:
On the face (“vampire facial”)
Under the eyes to reduce dark circles
On the scalp for hair thinning
Along the jawline to improve laxity
On the neck and décolleté for crepey skin
“The real power of PRP is in its versatility,” says Dr. Novitch. “We’re using it for everything from fine lines to hair restoration—and our patients love the natural results.”

PRP also pairs beautifully with microneedling, enhancing collagen remodeling while reducing recovery time. Many patients at Novo Wellness opt for this combined treatment.
South Carolina’s climate—especially the sunny, humid coastal conditions—can accelerate skin aging. Sun exposure and environmental stressors take their toll. That’s why local knowledge matters.
At Novo Wellness, we factor in not just your skin type and age, but your lifestyle and exposure to elements. This allows us to build a skincare and regenerative plan that’s realistic, sustainable, and specifically tuned to the Lowcountry lifestyle.
“In places like Hilton Head and Aiken, sun care and collagen support are crucial. PRP helps repair damage and restore youthful skin health in a natural way,” says Dr. Novitch.
Our team at Novo Wellness Center in Aiken and Hilton Head Island is passionate about helping you feel confident in your skin. Whether you’re exploring PRP for the first time or looking to maintain previous results, we offer honest guidance and a high standard of care.
