PRP SKIN REJUVENATION
A treatment that gives a more youthful appearance to the skin with minimal downtime
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a natural treatment that stimulates collagen and elastin fibres by transferring the patient's own plasma. Platelets, a component of your blood, provide growth factors that aid in skin repair and renewal, enhancing silkiness and diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
How it works
Blood is drawn by a fully-trained SKINMED Cosmetic Nurse, spun in a centrifuge to separate plasma containing platelets, and then injected back into the skin under a topical anaesthetic.
Platelets are a blood component that aids in blood clotting and soft tissue repair. This PRP injection accelerates healing and regeneration in areas of concern or slow recovery, such as the neck, under eyes, face, hands, and decolletage, while also enhancing skin tone and texture, diminishing dark circles, thickening the dermis, and increasing natural moisture.
Preparation & Aftercare
What to EXPECT
You will need a consultation with the Injecting Practitioner, who will conduct an online consultation with the Prescribing Practitioner, before beginning therapy. The session will result in an evaluation of your treatment plan and medication.
The operation may last up to 45 minutes, and the affected area will be anaesthetized for your comfort. Platelets will immediately begin to stimulate collagen development and boost blood flow, resulting in improved skin texture and tone for weeks or months following treatment.
It is advised to refrain from touching the region for at least two hours after therapy to allow the injection sites to heal. Before touching the treatment area, ensure that your hands are clean and cleansed
