Protein Rich Plasma (PRP), also known as a Vampire facial, is an advanced skin treatment, which is great for skin rejuvenation. This treatment uses your own plasma to stimulate new cell production, helping to improve texture, acne scars, elasticity, pigmentation or redness, fine lines and more. It can be used quite literally anywhere on the body-including the scalp for hair growth.
This treatment is also very popular with patients who dislike the idea of dermal fillers or botulinum toxin as PRP uses your body’s own natural resources.
Nurse Sophie will take a blood sample from you-exactly the same process as when you have a blood test. She will then put it into the centrifuge to be spun so that the plasma is separated from the red blood cells.
PRP can be microneedled or injected into the skin. Microneedling is excellent for patients who dislike needles or if it is the surface of the skin which requires improvement. Injecting is great for treating the deeper layers of the skin. You can also choose whether to treat the whole face, scalp or you can target problem areas such as under the eyes.
