What is a PRP Facial?

A PRP facial is a natural skin rejuvenation treatment often used as an alternative to a surgical facelift.

It utilizes platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from your own blood, which has a higher concentration of platelets than regular blood. These platelets help to promote healing and revitalize the skin when applied topically, providing you with a youthful and radiant look!

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a natural treatment derived from your own blood.

The process is straightforward: your blood is drawn, then spun in a centrifuge for several minutes to separate the platelets, plasma and red and white blood cells.

To ensure comfort during the procedure, a topical numbing cream can be applied to the treatment area.

It’s Never Too Late For Beauty

The platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is then introduced into the skin on the face via micro-needles. The small needles allow for the PRP to penetrate deep into the skin, ensuring maximum effectiveness. Though it may sound painful, you can rest assured that it is not.

I cannot recommend Dr. Pedi enough! After struggling with gut issues for years and being dismissed by other doctors who told me it was all in my head, Dr. Pedi stepped in and changed everything. He took the time to listen carefully and was determined to find the root cause of my problems. His kind and compassionate approach made me feel heard and supported, and the results have been amazing. Not only has he helped me tremendously with my gut issues, but we are now working on balancing my hormones, and I continue to feel better every day. My energy levels are finally back up, and this is the healthiest and happiest I’ve ever been. If you're looking for a doctor who truly cares and is committed to helping you heal, Dr. Pedi is the one!

A Life-Changing Experience with Dr. Pedi and his team!I am thrilled to share my experience with Dr. Pedi, who has truly transformed my life through naturopathic medicine. For the past couple years, I struggled with debilitating migraines that seemed impossible to manage, in addition to my knee issues. Traditional treatments offered only a bandaid instead of finding the root of my migraines and internal inflammation. The other concern I had with traditional treatments was the amount of undesirable side effects.Dr. Pedi's approached my condition with a refreshing and holistic perspective. I initially went in to get some stem cell shots in my knee but through conversation, he recommended taking a deeper look on whats going internally. He recommended a combination of targeted supplements and a comprehensive detox program tailored specifically to my needs. The results have been nothing short of life changing.From the start, Dr. Pedi took the time to thoroughly understand my health history and individual needs. His expertise and personalized approach were evident in every aspect of my treatment. The supplements he suggested, along with the detox regimen, worked together to address the root causes of my migraines, rather than just masking the symptoms. He recommended we do an aggressive detox through IV's and my liver was detoxed within a few treatments. Migraines went away shortly after that.The improvement in my quality of life have been extraordinary. My migraines have significantly reduced in frequency and intensity, allowing me to enjoy life more fully. Beyond the physical relief, I feel empowered and educated about my health in a way I never have before.Dr. Pedi has been incredibly supportive throughout the process, always available to answer questions and adjust the treatment plan as needed. His dedication and genuine care for his patients are truly commendable. His innovative approach and compassionate care reignited my trust in the our healthcare system.If you’re struggling with chronic health issues, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Pedi.

I am so happy that I began coming here this year. Everyone is so knowledgeable, caring, helpful, and friendly. I have had several positive changes in my bloodwork and my overall health. One major change was the lowering of my cholesterol without medication. I feel so much better. I have more energy, I am sleeping soundly and my anxiety has decreased more than I ever thought it would. My husband has started going as well and is very happy with his experience.

I had been dealing with some awful gut health issues for over 1.5 years. I had gone down the traditional medicine approach and found no relief, no answers and had no improvement. In fact, my health continued to decline even though I was doing what I was told. After a prolonged period of time with no improvement I decided to try the naturopathic route. I contacted, and started working with Dr. Sullivan and that was truly one of the best decisions I could have made. After working with Dr. Sullivan I not only had answers, but my health FINALLY started improving for the first time. My experience working with Dr Sullivan has been great. He is kind, knowledgeable, and created a treatment plan specifically for me. It is truly a rare gem to find a doctor that actually cares about your health and wants to see you improve. Dr. Sullivan is one of those rare gems and is a doctor that truly wants to help his patients.Thank you, thank you, thank you, to Dr. Sullivan and the clinic staff at Oasis Health and Medicine.

I came to Oasis H&M after suffering several months-long eczema flare on my face and neck, asthma/allergies, and gut issues. I was seeing a dermatologist and an allergist to treat my flare symptoms, but was not able to stop using prescribed creams and inhaler without the rashes and discomfort returning within a day. My quality of life was greatly impacted, and I was feeling discouraged about not finding the root cause of these issues. After getting some bloodwork and GI-map testing completed, Dr. Pedi was able to identify the root cause of my issues and implement a plan for me to heal. I've been on my treatment plan for 5 months, and my skin has improved drastically --I no longer have the same recurring pattern of rashes on my face and neck. Within two weeks of my treatment, I was no longer using my inhaler for my asthma symptoms. My gut issues have decreased significantly, and I'm feeling better mentally and physically. Dr. Pedi has helped me feel empowered to improve my health and truly gave me hope that I can live a life without chronic skin/asthma/allergies/gut issues. Thank you Dr. Pedi!

Dr. Sullivan is absolutely amazing! I can't stress this enough. I took my 9-year-old to see him because she was experiencing gut and focusing issues. Her pediatrician had initially dismissed these issues as normal for a growing 9-year-old, but I felt that there was more to it. After a few months of treatment with Dr. Sullivan, my daughter is now thriving. Her bowel movements are regular, and her focus and attention have improved immensely. I am so grateful for Dr. Sullivan's expertise and care. I am so happy we found Dr Sullivan!

I have been seeing Dr. Pedi since August and let me tell you ... I feel like I am a whole new human!!!I went to Dr. Pedi for my anxiety/depression. I have been on antidepressants for 7+ years and wanted to get off of them but every time I tried to, I didn't succeed and that is when I started to learn about gut health and got a referral to Dr. Pedi. Since I have been seeing him since August, he has helped soooo much with my cortisol levels, my iron deficiency, and my gut! I can proudly say now that I am coming off my antidepressants and it has been VERY SUCCESSFUL!!!Thank you so much Dr. Pedi!!!

I’ve been working with Dr. Pedi for four months now and I can honestly say that it’s been a game changer for my health. I came to him as a fairly healthy woman in my mid twenties looking to improve my overall health. I suffered from minor things like boating, acne and weight gain. On our first meeting, we had a long conversation about goals and what I wanted. He ran blood tests and a food sensitivity test to figure out the root of the issue. From there he developed a customized plan to follow and after conducting additional tests we have seen significant improvement based on his recommendations. Not to mention my gut health has improved, way less bloating and my skin is looking a lot better. If you’re interested in improving your overall health, I would 100% recommend.

I can’t believe how much my health has changed in just 3-4 months working with Dr. Pedi. I initially came in with various health problems such as guts issues, brain fog, fatigue etc. I had my consultation appointment where Dr. Pedi really took the time to ask questions and get to the bottom of all of these health issues. After some blood work and other tests, I was able to get a personalized supplement plan along with a series of IV injection treatments with his partner Dr. Sullivan. I started improving within only 5-6 weeks. I am now in my fourth month working with Dr. Pedi and his team at Oasis Health and Medicine and I couldn’t be more happy with the results. I cannot recommend these doctors enough. Dr. Pedi and Dr. Sullivan provide absolutely the highest quality of care, they have completely transformed my health and changed my life.

While searching for a naturopathic doctor, I came across Oasis Health and Medicine via social media. Despite experiencing symptoms such as bloating, fatigue, and brain fog, I had previously been informed by my doctors that these were typical signs of aging. However, upon commencing treatment with Dr. Dan Sullivan in September 2023, I underwent an extensive consultation and various tests, resulting in a profound understanding of the underlying causes of my prolonged discomfort. Dr. Sullivan's compassionate and attentive approach, coupled with his evident passion for his craft, has provided me with a personalized roadmap towards achieving optimal health. The transformative impact of this journey has already manifested in numerous improvements, instilling in me a sense of anticipation for a future characterized by enhanced well-being and contentment. I consider myself fortunate to have crossed paths with Dr. Sullivan.

I found out about Dr. Pedi through a friend of a friend. I’ve always had horrible allergies, anxiety, and bloating growing up to now and never had a chance to pin point the underlying issues. With the help of Dr. Pedi, extensive blood work, and selection of supplements the bloating has completely gone away!

For 3 years I have been struggling with chronic bloating, constipation/diarrhea and nausea.I found Dr.Pedi online and decided it was time to take the naturopathic route since traditional doctors were not much help!Dr.Pedi had me run all the test necessary to figure out what the root of all my issues are. I found out I have a dairy sensitivity, e-coli overgrowth and much more!After being put on the supplements Dr.Pedi recommended, I have seen a huge improvement with my bowel movements and no longer nauseous. My bloating has also improved, although it will take some time to be at 100% we are slowly but surely getting thereDr. Pedi listens,cares and wants to heal you and not just put a bandage over the issue! I highly recommend.

I am so grateful for finding Dr. Pedi at Oasis Health because he's been a game-changer for my health! He helped me sort out my digestive issues and significantly improved my persistent headaches. I stumbled upon his Instagram account through the Explore page, and I was instantly hooked by his content. He has this knack for simplifying complex medical topics, making it super easy to understand. I felt connected and I could trust him right away.Initially, I reached out to him for a recommendation for a doctor in Los Angeles. But to my surprise, he offered virtual consultations, which was a godsend for me. I'm a stay-at-home mom, running my business from home, so that kind of flexibility was a blessing. Our journey started with a deep dive into my health issues, and he came up with a detailed plan for me, covering supplements, an elimination diet, and more.What's cool is that Dr. Pedi took a look at the bloodwork results I got from my regular doctor, who said I was perfectly fine. Dr. Pedi, with his expert eye, spotted some subtleties that needed attention to take my health to the next level. After six weeks, I felt like a whole new person. My headaches were gone, bloating was a thing of the past, and my anxiety had really eased up. Then we tweaked the supplement plan a bit, and I also did a food sensitivity test.Fast forward four months, and I got another round of blood tests. Dr. Pedi went through them with me, and I was thrilled to see that my levels were now in the optimal range, all thanks to Dr. Pedi's knowledge and guidance. I like to think of him as a crucial member of my personal "board of directors," helping me maintain peak health so I can perform at my best in every aspect of my life, be it physical fitness, daily life, or running my business. I can't say enough good things about working with Dr. Pedi – I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for top-notch healthcare and guidance!

Lost over 15 lbs and total cholesterol dropped by 80 points in 3 months. All this was done with Dr Pedi’s supplement plan and Dr Dan’a exercise routine recommendations. I strongly recommend anyone in their 30’s like me, to get a head start on cardio health. Dr Pedi and his team will work with your life situation and recommend the best possible course of action. I will continue working with them as I have some more health goals to achieve!

I first found Dr Pedi on social media several years ago and I have always been fascinated by naturopathic medicine and their approach on health, but hadn’t ever tried it. I’m very skeptical of traditional medicine. While I appreciate their role in health care, I would much prefer to use medical doctors as a last resort. When I heard that Dr Pedi and Dr Dan we’re opening Oasis Health and Medicine, I was so excited. I took it as my “sign” that it was time for me to go check it out. When I had my consultation with Dr Pedi, he asked my reason for the visit, to which I replied “I don’t know, I just feel unhealthy, I don’t have any symptoms, I just feel unhealthy”. Dr Pedi immediately started digging into my background, lifestyle, habits, etc. to establish the root of this unhealthy feeling. I think he took that as a challenge and both Dr Pedi and Dr Dan got to work on a plan to get me healthy. After reviewing my bloodwork, which was the most extensive I’ve ever seen, there were several indications that I would be feeling unhealthy. Through a series of IVs, daily supplements, some lifestyle changes, today (about 5 months later) I feel great! I have lowered my blood pressure, improved my cholesterol, improved my blood sugar, I’m sleeping better, more active and feeling like I’m 30 again! I am so thankful for all the work these guys have put into getting me back on course! This was all accomplished without the use of medications, but rather natural supplements and healthy habits.As a patient with white coat syndrome, both Dr Pedi and Dr Dan have been amazing to work with and I have not experienced any anxiety! They are truly masters of their profession. They are fun, engaging, collaborative with each other on your care and genuinely care about their patients. I really appreciate their respect for when they can treat you and when you may need to seek traditional medical help.Their offices are very nice, newly remodeled, comfortable, and very zen like! You don’t feel like you’re at a doctor’s office at all. When I was getting my series of IVs I looked forward to my time there.I would highly recommend Oasis Health and Medicine to anyone looking to get their health back on track. I personally am very grateful to have had the privilege to work with both Dr Pedi and Dr Dan!

I am so happy I found Dr. Pedi at Oasis. I have been struggling with many issues including heart health, digestive issues and sleep for a couple years. After following Dr. Pedi's supplement and lifestyle plan for a little over a month now, I am already seeing major improvements in my constipation, painful bloating and gas issues. I couldn't be happier to be a patient here at Oasis.

This place was awesome. It's my first IV Therapy treatment and it was a great experience. The whole vibe is friendly and comforting. I went in wanting to get a customized bag for joint pain, inflammation, and hydration. After speaking with the doctor and doing a quick 15 min consultation he recommended other vitamins, minerals, and God knows what (he explained it to me I just don't remember). Whatever they added had me feeling like I was 18 all over. It was a great energy and hydration boost. I'll definitely be going back and I recommend this place if your thinking of getting IV Therapy.

I am so happy to find oasis health and medicine! I was educating myself with dr pedis instagram page, and when I heard he was opening up his own clinic in Encinitas, I had to see him asap. Not once did I think any of my symptoms had to do with my gut health. I had a lot of different things going on including heart stuff and deficiencies, and after doing all of the testing recommended by dr pedi, we finally found the root cause! Primary drs could not figure me out for 7 years and that is why I wanted to go the naturopathic route. The amount of knowledge I also gain from visiting him is so beneficial. I stuck to his supplement plan he put me on, did all the recommended tests, and listened to my health plan, and my digestive issues, including the stomach aches, gas, headaches etc have resolved and this has led to weight loss! After 12 weeks of being on my supplement plan, my blood work numbers have also already improved once I started healing my gut first. Now my body can absorb the vitamins and minerals I need to feel my absolute best! Thanks team oasis for being the best!!

Before I began my health journey with Dr. Pedi and Dr. Sullivan, I constantly struggled with digestive issues, particularly debilitating bloating that affected my day-to-day life. Their comprehensive approach and keen expertise provided invaluable insights into my condition. Under their guidance and care, not only has my bloating significantly resolved, but I've also experienced a remarkable improvement in my overall energy levels.Both Dr. Pedi and Dr. Sullivan exhibit genuine compassion, always prioritizing my wellbeing. Their combined knowledge and dedication have truly transformed my life. I am immensely grateful for their relentless commitment to helping me regain my health. For anyone facing digestive concerns or seeking a holistic approach to their health, I cannot recommend them enough!For those of you reading reviews and deciding on a practitioner – your search stops here. Dr. Pedi and Dr. Sullivan are game changers. A big thank you to them for turning my health around!

I am very pleased to be working with Dr. Pedi at Oasis Health and Medicine in obtaining optimal health. At the start of my journey, having high cholesterol and pre-diabetic issues were of great concern for me and since I have a family history of these health issues, breaking the cycle was definitely a priority for me.After consulting with Dr. Pedi and following his detailed plan, I was able to reduce my cholesterol and blood sugar levels dramatically, but most importantly, I was able to do it naturally without medication. Being able to accomplish this naturally was the primary reason for reaching out to Dr. Pedi. I look forward to continuing this journey and working with Dr. Pedi.

I can't thank Dr. Pedi enough for the excellent care he has provided, he is a gift to patients! For almost 5 years I was struggling with severe bloating, nausea, insomnia, and extreme fatigue. Doctors constantly were running the same 3 tests telling me "you're fine", "you're within range" and even "listen to a podcast and learn how to lose weight". Doctors started making me feel like I was making everything up, but I knew something was wrong. Dr. Pedi sat down with me and listened to every thing I was experiencing, didn't cut me short or blow off anything I said. He shiwed he actually cared and he immediately knew what was wrong! We started a medicinal regimen and it's been 4 weeks and almost feel 100% back to normal!! My sever and painful bloating, daily dry heaving and nausea completely went away! My insomnia has greatly improve and wlnow that my bloodwokr came back we know the cause of my insomnia and fatigue! Dr. Pedi saved my life! Words cannot describe how grateful I am!

I have been looking for a naturopathic doctor for a long time and Dr. Mirdamadi was given to me as a referral. I decided to give him a try. I had been having some gut issues for a long time and wanted to go the more natural route on finding the root cause of my issue. Dr. Mirdamadi is very kind, gentle, and knowledgable. He sat with me and made sure I understand everything he was doing. I felt very comfortable. He provide me with some recommendations and vitamins to help me. I followed his recommendations (to the best of my ability) and I am feeling so much better! It’s only been a short time, but I feel a difference by just changing some of my habits and staying away from foods that I could have food allergies too. Another Dr. is Dr. Dan and he was so kind and sweet. I am scared of needles but he was so gentle that I didn’t even know he was done. Both Dr’s are great! I still have a long road ahead of me, but thrilled with how things have progressed so far.

I recently saw Dr. Mirdamadi for IV therapy to support my health post partum. I was thoroughly impressed with his care, expertise and professionalism. From start to finish, he made me feel at ease and confident in his abilities. Dr. Mirdamadi takes the time to LISTEN to your concerns and empathizes, he simplifies complex mechanisms and explains treatment options and protocols. What really stands out about Dr. Mirdamadi is his attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond, since, he has followed up and has answered subsequent questions and made sure I had all the resources I needed during this post partum phase. Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Mirdamadi, he is compassionate and skilled. He truly cares for his patients and is passionate about his craft.

I recently had my first NAD+ IV therapy session at Oasis with Dr. Pedi. The process was extremely smooth. He is very precise and gentle with the needle and I never felt nauseous. I had the best nights sleep afterward and I had been having issues sleeping for months. I woke up feeling refreshed and my brain fog was gone.After my initial consultation, Dr. Pedi created a custom cocktail to cater to my needs, and he also added specific vitamins that help the absorption rate of the NAD. I think this is sometimes overlooked by most IV only clinics and why I recommend getting it done here at Oasis with a true professional doctor. Excited for round 2! Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Oasis Health and Medicine. I am a Breast Cancer survivor and wanted to take a different approach to my health. My body felt off post treatment - depleted and fatigued - and my regular doctors couldn’t identify that anything was wrong. Dr. Pedi took the time to understand my goals, my concerns and my medical history and after an extensive set of labs, I finally have answers and a comprehensive plan to restore my health. His “root cause” approach versus the “suppress and treat symptoms” of western medicine is what has convinced me that naturopathic/functional medicine is the best approach. Thank you, Dr. Pedi! I’m truly grateful to you and your clinic

Wonderful experience! Very thorough & professional doctors who truly know their stuff. I got the male hormone test and Dr. Pedi analyzed the results for me in an easy to understand way and he connected everything in a holistic manner to make sense as to why certain levels were higher or lower than optimal. He then put me on a specific, customized treatment plan with supplements that I’ve been enjoying taking. Excellent service all around and affordable for the highly specialized & personal care he offers.

Call To Schedule Your PRP Facial Today · 858-201-3171

What is a PRP facial good for?

Increased collagen production – a PRP facial stimulates the growth of collagen and revitalizes the skin. The micro trauma caused by this treatment encourages natural collagen production, resulting in tighter, more luminous skin.

Increased moisture retention – PRP facials not only increase the strength and thickness of your skin, but they also offer protection and moisture retention to the deeper layers. This helps unblock pores, allowing moisturizing products to perform better and yield greater results.

Improved skin tone and texture – PRP facials can be used to reduce the appearance of stretch marks, fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and scarring. Depending on the severity of your condition, multiple treatments may be required to obtain visible results.

PRP can help with:

  • Acne scarring
  • Sun damage
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Circles under the eyes
  • Textured skin

What does a microneedling PRP facial do and what are the benefits?

Combining platelet-rich plasma with microneedling results in an effective twofold approach to skin rejuvenation.

PRP introduces natural healing factors directly into the skin while microneedling stimulates growth and reproduction of collagen – this potent combination can create a glowing, youthful complexion.

How long does it take to see results?

PRP facials can take a few weeks for the new collagen to form, however most people experience a tightening of their skin and a radiant glow in just a couple of days.

However, some people may experience faster or slower results depending on individual factors such as skin type and age.

The best way to determine the time frame for your specific case is by consulting with a professional who can assess your unique situation.

These benefits can continue for many months and follow up treatments may only be needed several times per year for maintenance.

How do I prepare for a PRP treatment?

Men should be cleanly shaven prior to their appointment, while women are advised to come without makeup. To ensure the best outcome, patients are also encouraged to stay hydrated ahead of the procedure.

To ensure you get the most out of this treatment at our San Diego clinic, follow these steps for preparation:

  1. Consult with a professional: Before undergoing any medical procedure, it’s essential to discuss your concerns and expectations with an experienced healthcare provider or dermatologist specializing in PRP treatments. They will assess your condition, provide guidance on the best approach, and answer any questions you may have.
  2. Research the treatment: Educate yourself about platelet-rich plasma therapy by reading articles, watching videos, and discussing with others who have undergone this procedure. Understanding how PRP works and its potential benefits will help you make an informed decision on whether it’s right for you.
  3. Avoid blood thinners: For at least a week before your treatment, avoid taking any medications or supplements that thin the blood, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or certain herbal remedies – these can interfere with PRP therapy by affecting platelet function and making it less effective.
  4. Hydrate: Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your treatment. Proper hydration is essential for overall health and will help ensure that your blood samples are rich enough in platelets for optimal results.
  5. Refrain from alcohol consumption: Alcohol can interfere with PRP therapy by affecting clotting factors, so it’s best to avoid alcoholic beverages at least 48 hours before and after the procedure.
  6. Prepare your skin (if applicable): If you are undergoing a facial or hair PRP treatment, cleanse your face or scalp thoroughly on the day of the appointment. Avoid using any skincare products with harsh chemicals or abrasive exfoliants that could irritate the area and interfere with the procedure.
  7. Manage expectations: Understand that results from platelet-rich plasma therapy may vary depending on individual factors such as age, overall health, and the specific condition being treated. Be prepared for a gradual improvement in your symptoms or appearance over time rather than an immediate transformation.

By following these steps, you can ensure that you are well-prepared for your Platelet-Rich Plasma treatment and set yourself up for optimal results. Remember you can always consult with a healthcare professional at Oasis Health and Medicine before undergoing any medical procedure to discuss the best approach for your unique situation.

What results can I expect?

After a PRP procedure with a microneedling pen, patients will usually experience a mild amount of redness or bruising that fades within 2-3 days.

The platelets then start stimulating collagen growth and increase skin moisture levels.

Depending on the depth of the injections and the patient’s age, results may vary, but these treatments can help to restore a youthful and radiant glow to the skin.

Over the next few months, with repeated treatments, your skin will undergo noticeable texture changes as it gets smoother.

Your face will continue to look better for weeks to months as it regenerates, developing new collagen.

Is a PRP facial safe?

PRP facials entail small injections in the face, which may seem intimidating or uncomfortable – facials involve drawing your blood, separating the platelet-rich plasma from other components, and then injecting this concentrated serum into specific areas of your face to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture.

However, most people just feel a minor discomfort during the procedure, which usually passes within minutes.

After the PRP facial, your complexion will be flushed from the micro-needling, but this should dissipate within a few hours.

To ensure optimal outcomes, we at Oasis Health and Medicine in San Diego, recommend abstaining from using any topical products and exposure to direct sunlight on the area where treatment has occurred for a few days.

Other than those precautions, there is minimal recovery involved.

It is additionally suggested that patients refrain from drinking alcohol during the weeks after the procedure in order to prevent skin dehydration.
