What is platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy?

This 20-30 minute treatment sees a selected area injected with platelet rich plasma in an effort to help target damaged hair follicle tissue and lessen the visibility of fine lines or dark skin around the eyes.

What happens at the sessions?

An initial blood sample will be collected from the patient, before it is placed in a centrifuge machine which separates natural body proteins from red blood cells. The remaining natural proteins will then be re-injected into the selected area.

What about aftercare?

Clients may experience mild swelling of the target area following the treatment. Avoiding vigorous activity is recommended until the swelling is gone, with pain manageable through the use of non-narcotic analgesic medication. Hair can usually be washed as normal immediately after the treatment.

Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) uses the patient’s own blood to obtain platelets, white blood cells, fibrin and mesenchymal stem cells in order to provide a slow release of growth factors to help revitalise the skin or address issues such as joint pain and hair loss.

Autologous Dermal Bio Filler is an injectable gel derived from the patient’s blood in order to reduce the visibility of fine lines and revitalise the skin.
