PRP – FACE, NECK & CHEST REJUVENATION
PRP Skin Rejuvenation, is a cosmetic procedure that utilises the patient's own blood to
promote skin rejuvenation. The procedure involves extracting a small amount of blood from
the patient, processing it to isolate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and then injecting or
applying the PRP onto the skin. PRP contains growth factors and other bioactive proteins
that stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, and enhance overall skin quality.
​
How it works:
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment works by utilising the body’s natural healing process to
rejuvenate the skin. Here’s how it works:
Blood Collection: A small amount of the patient’s blood is drawn, usually from the arm, like
a regular blood test.
Separation of Platelets: The blood is placed in a centrifuge, which spins it at high speeds to
separate the different components. This process concentrates the platelets, which are rich
in growth factors and proteins essential for tissue repair and regeneration.
Application to the Skin: The PRP is then applied to the skin in one of two main ways:
Micro-needling: A micro-needling device creates tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin.
PRP is then applied over these tiny punctures, allowing it to penetrate deeply into the skin.
Injection: PRP can also be injected directly into specific areas to address targeted concerns,
such as fine lines or acne scars.
Stimulation of Collagen and Healing: The growth factors and proteins in PRP stimulate
collagen production, cell turnover, and the body’s natural healing processes. This helps to
improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and promote a healthy, rejuvenated appearance.
Results develop gradually over weeks, as the body generates new collagen and repairs skin
tissues, giving a smoother, firmer, and more radiant look. PRP is a natural treatment
because it uses the patient’s own blood, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or
complications.

Frequently asked questions.
​
1. What is PRP, and how does it work?
PRP, or Platelet-Rich Plasma, is a treatment that uses your body’s own platelets to stimulate
collagen production and skin rejuvenation. A small amount of blood is drawn, processed to
concentrate the platelets, and then applied or injected into the skin to promote healing and
regeneration.
2. What are the benefits of PRP for the skin?
PRP can improve skin texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, promote collagen production,
and help with skin tone and firmness. It’s often used for rejuvenating the face, neck, and
hands, as well as for addressing acne scars and other imperfections.
3. How soon will I see results, and how long do they last?
Results from PRP are gradual and can take a few weeks to start showing, with continued
improvement over several months as collagen builds. Results typically last between 6-12
months, depending on individual factors and skincare routines.
4. Is there any downtime after a PRP treatment?
PRP has minimal downtime. You may experience mild redness, swelling, or bruising for a
few days, but these effects usually subside quickly. Most people can resume normal
activities the day after treatment.
5. Is PRP safe?
Yes, PRP is considered safe since it uses your body’s own blood, reducing the risk of allergic
reactions or side effects. Your provider will discuss any possible risks with you during your
consultation to ensure PRP is the right choice for you.
POST + PRE TREATMENT CARE
PRP treatment uses your body’s natural platelets to stimulate collagen production and skin
rejuvenation.
You may experience mild redness, swelling, or slight bruising in the treated area
immediately after the procedure. This usually subsides within a few hours to a couple of
days.
Results typically appear gradually over a few weeks, with improvements in skin texture,
tone, and overall appearance continuing to develop.
