PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)

PRP is exceptionally safe because it uses your own blood — there is no risk of allergic reaction, rejection, or transmission of disease. Side effects are limited to temporary injection-site redness and swelling, which typically resolves within 48 hours. As a physician-performed procedure, full medical assessment is conducted before treatment.

A course of three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart is the standard recommendation for optimal collagen remodelling. Many patients notice an improvement in skin quality after a single session; the full cumulative benefit develops over three to six months following a completed course.

Yes — PRP pairs exceptionally well with microneedling, where the PRP is applied during the procedure to enhance penetration and accelerate healing. It also works synergistically with skin boosters and polynucleotides as part of a regenerative skin programme.

Topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to minimise discomfort. The blood draw is identical to a standard blood test. Most patients describe the injections as mild pressure or a brief sting that is easily tolerated. We go at your pace throughout.

PRP works gradually as it stimulates your skin's own collagen production and cellular repair. Many patients notice an initial improvement in skin quality within two to four weeks; the full benefit — improved firmness, texture, and radiance — becomes visible over three to six months. Results continue to improve with successive sessions.

Pre-treatment: avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, and blood-thinning supplements for one week. Stay well-hydrated on the day of treatment, as this makes the blood draw easier. Post-treatment: avoid vigorous exercise and heat for 48 hours. Do not apply makeup or active skincare for 24 hours. SPF 50 daily is essential as skin will be more photosensitive. Avoid alcohol for 24 hours post-treatment.
