PLATELET RICH PLASMA (PRP) is Facial rejuvenation using your very own cells to stimulate natural skin rejuvenation without the use of chemicals. PRP has long been recognized for its wound-healing properties in areas such as surgery and sports injuries, but  this amazing technology is now also being successfully  used for cosmetic enhancement.

A new anti-aging treatment

• Using 100% of your own blood cells (autologous)
• 8-20mL of your blood is taken, spun down in a centrifuge (5-9) mins
• Plasma separates from the red blood cells and it is this platelet rich plasma that is injected
• Once injected the platelets become activated to release growth factors, that attract stem cells to produce healthy skin cells and new collagen

Areas to be treated

• Any area with skin laxity such as the face, jaw line or neck
• Crinkling skin around the eyes
• Sun damaged skin on the chest or decolletage
• Back of hands, arms and post baby tummy
• Thinning hair areas on the head

How long does PRP last?

After your initial 2 to 3 treatments, carried out monthly, the skin continues to improve over the next 6 months with increased thickening of the skin and improved hydration.  A maintenance treatment every 12 months is recommended.

Results are dependent on your overall health and internal nutrition.  Smoking and alcohol consumption can shorten the life of cells.
