Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is an innovative and regenerative technique applied in the field of advanced aesthetics. This approach uses the growth factors present in the patient’s own blood platelets to stimulate tissue regeneration, reduce pore appearance, attenuate fine expression lines, lighten skin spots, and improve collagen density. The present study aims to analyze the efficacy and safety of PRP in the treatment of facial aging, identifying its effects, risks, and clinical indications. The research followed a qualitative approach, through an integrative literature review, covering publications from 2019 to 2025. Data collection was carried out through secondary sources, with a careful selection based on studies about PRP in aesthetics, published in academic and scientific databases such as Google Scholar, Scielo, PubMed, and LILACS. The focus was to identify the use of PRP in aging management, the most suitable conditions for its application, as well as possible side effects and treatment limitations. The analysis of the compiled data was descriptive and comparative, prioritizing the consistency and relevance of the scientific evidence found. Studies show that the use of PRP provides significant results in facial rejuvenation, improving the appearance of wrinkles, skin texture, pigmentation, and collagen density. Therefore, it is a viable and safe option for the prevention of aging signs.
