Rejuvenate your skin with PRP

Our blood consists mainly of the following components: white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets and plasma. Platelets are a collection of cells found in the blood that are essential to the body’s healing process. They control bleeding and have growth factors and proteins that encourage repair, regeneration and healing in our bodies.

We use the natural healing ability of the platelets to bring a youthful and glowing look to your face.

As with any cosmetic procedure, PRP facial treatments carry potential side effects and risks.

Common side effects may include redness, swelling, bruising, tenderness and discomfort at the treatment site. Mild pinpoint bleeding or temporary redness may also occur following treatment. Less common risks can include infection or not achieving the desired aesthetic outcome. Your cosmetic doctor or nurse will discuss the potential benefits, risks and suitability of treatment during your consultation before proceeding.

We will take a small amount of your blood, similar to how a blood test is taken. This blood is then treated to isolate the platelets. Next, we will numb the area with anaesthetic cream, then re-inject the highly concentrated platelet-rich plasma into the skin.

Our special V2 injection device can be used with PRP to further promote advanced skin rejuvenation and increase comfort levels during the procedure.

Your platelets are blood cells that play an essential role in tissue repair. They do this by releasing growth factors that activate stem cells in the skin to form new tissue and restore the skin’s structure.

You can notice results from your PRP injections approximately 8 to 12 weeks after treatment, with final results being noticeable after six months. Results are slow and gradual as your body needs the time to create new collagen, elastin and connective tissue.

For optimal results, a series of treatments is recommended. The effects of your PRP treatment can last from 12 months to 2 years. We recommend having a booster treatment every 12 to 18 months to maintain and improve results
