PRP Treatments for Skin

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) for Skin



Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is an advanced treatment which helps to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin through injections and/or microneedling. It helps revitalise and regenerate damaged tissue and releases growth factors and regenerative molecules.

The benefits can include improved skin texture and scar reduction whilst keeping a natural appearance. 

It involves taking a small sample of blood from the arm exactly like a blood test. This sample is placed in a centrifuge for 10 minutes where the PRP is separated and ready to use. It is then either injected and/or microneedled into the skin.

Results can take up to 6-8 weeks to be visible and is very individual depending on factors such as general health, age, diet, smoking etc.

It is recommended that a series of 2-3 sessions are performed for optimal results approx 4-6 weeks apart, with maintenance every 6-12 months.
