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.Β
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.
