PRP (PLATELET RICH PLASMA)
PRP TREATMENTS EXPLAINED
During this treatment, we take one or more vials of blood, spin it in a centrifuge to separate the platelet rich plasma (PRP) from the red blood cells. This is a natural treatment using your own plasma to promote rapid reproduction of cells.

This treatment is incredible when used in conjunction with skin needling.

Dark circles under the eyes

HAIR LOSS TREATMENT
Platelet rich plasma can be injected into the scalp in areas of hair loss/hair thinning. This is a less invasive alternative to hair transplants. The PRP stimulates growth in dormant hair cells, 3 treatments 4 weeks apart is recommended initially, then 3 monthly maintenance treatments.
Results will be seen around 3-6 months after the initial treatment.
Best results are seen on those who started receding/thinning within the last 5 years.
