What is Platelet-rich plasma (PRP)?
How does it work?
PRP is a procedure that involves taking a sample of your blood and centrifuging (separating) the platelets and plasma from the red cells.
The platelets and plasma is then re-injected into the skin.
Using your body’s own blood platelets, PRP is re-injected or Micro-needled back into your skin to help men and women with:
· Acne and acne scarring
· Wrinkles and fine lines (frown lines or crow’s feet)
· Loose skin
· Dark eyes
· Hair loss
· Hand rejuvenation
· Stretch marks
PRP is used to promote new skin cells, stimulate collagen production, repair cell damage, and regenerate and remodel tissue growth.
This means improving your skin texture, tone as well as, helping improve your complexion

PRP Frequently asked questions
How many treatments are required?
For optimal results, it is recommend that 2-3 treatments are done 4-6 weeks apart, with a once a year active maintenance treatment. Some clients like to optimise, collagen and elastin, by having maintenance treatment every 3 months.
How long do the results last for?
There is on-going improvement in the skin up to 12 months after each treatment depending on the rate the patient grows collagen. A maintenance treatment can be done at the 6 months mark to optimise collagen and elastin.
Are results immediate?
No. Swelling from the plasma is what you will see and feel first. Once this has subsided you will not see much change at all. Over a few weeks the Platelets will stimulate the growth factors which will assist in more collagen growth. You will start to see an improvement in skin turgor and elasticity. Some say when applying makeup, it glides on and skin texture and tone is smoother.
