Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Treatment

The PRP treatment is a simple, safe procedure where blood is taken (just like a blood test), and then spun in a centrifuge machine. This allows your blood to separate into red blood cells and white blood cells at the bottom, and plasma at the top. This process allows the platelet rich plasma to be extracted. Platelets help to repair and rejuvenate soft tissue by delivering growth factor proteins to areas where they are needed. This platelet rich plasma is then re-injected into the areas to be treated.

Platelet Rich Plasma, taken from your blood, contains a high concentration of your own platelets & growth factors. PRP Therapy is often combined with skin needling.

The plasma is then injected into the dermis (the second layer of skin) with a fine needle; which induces the formation of new collagen fibres to help skin texture. You will experience a mild discomfort at the injection site when the PRP is injected.

The area treated will usually swell, lasting between a few hours to 2 days, and you may experience some bruising.

You will start to notice a change in your skin a few weeks after the treatment. We recommend 3 treatments, one month apart, to achieve good results. In a few weeks, the skin texture and acne scarring is improved, with long-lasting results.

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) treatment prices vary depending on your overall situation and expectations.

• Prices start from $600 per treatment
• Package discounts are available
• Initial consultation is between $120 – $150, redeemable upon treatment

PRP can be used on any area of the face/body where improvement in texture is desired. Almost everyone can benefit from having a treatment under the eyes. Other popular areas are décolletage, neck, hands and for full-facial rejuvenation. PRP is used for stretch marks, acne scarring, skin tightening, fat transfers, burns and ulcers. Additionally, rich plasma therapy can also be used as sport medicine to treat soft tissue injuries and inflammation. The treatment has also garnered media attention since becoming a popular mainstream choice for skin rejuvenation.
