What are PRP?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) facial, is a revolutionary skin treatment that uses your body’s own healing properties to rejuvenate and revitalize your skin. This treatment involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to extract the platelet-rich plasma, and then applying it to your face using microneedling techniques. The growth factors in the plasma stimulate collagen production and improve the overall texture and appearance of your skin.

This treatment consists of:

  • Venipuncture
  • Microneedling

Benefits of PRP :

  • Enhances skin texture and tone.
  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Stimulates collagen production for firmer skin.
  • Improves skin hydration and elasticity.
  • Reduces the appearance of scars and pigmentation.
  • Utilizes your body’s natural healing abilities for a more natural approach.

What are IPRF?

iPRF captures the most powerful regenerative components of your own blood with a simple injection. It is a fantastic treatment for many areas of the body such as the face for anti-ageing and scalp for hair thinning and regrowth. iPRF is similar to the widely known PRP but much more potent due to its different composition.

Injectable platelet rich fibrin or (iPRF) uses the patient’s own blood plasma which contains:

  • platelets (they store growth factors)
  • fibrin (organizes the tissue for healing and keeps the growth factors ‘trapped’ in the area )
  • stem cells (potent cells that initiate cascades for healing and rejuvenation)

What can it treat?

  • Skin rejuvenation
  • Eye bags
  • Scarring
  • Stretch marks
  • Hair loss/thinning
  • Acne scars

iPRF intensifies the functioning and reproduction of cells. The effect is accumulative and long lasting without any considerable side effects. As a result, new fibroblasts, collagen and elastin are produced. You will notice better skin elasticity and complexion will improve, fine lines will diminish and the skin will appear better hydrated. Even pigmentation and Rosacea can reduce.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How does iPRF work?

PRF intensifies the functioning and reproduction of cells, thus having a gentle, gradual yet long lasting and accumulative effect. Of course, i-PRF results are all the more impressive when incorporated into a treatment plan with hyaluronic acid fillers, wrinkle-relaxing treatments and other skin treatments. Producing virtually no downtime, this clinic based treatment can be used for skin and hair rejuvenation as well as treating problematic melasma and acne scars.

Why is Fibrin important?

Fibrin functions as a matrix that traps the platelets and controls their release of growth factors “very slowly and continuously over a time period of more than one week”. Growth factors release rate into the target tissue is important for tissue receptors to respond over a prolonged period of time following treatment

How does it help with scarring?

A scar is basically repaired tissue where the collagen has been deposited in a very dense pattern. Therefore the skin appears to look whiter and tougher and shows dips, dents or little bumps. iPRF will help the cells in the skin to reorganize the scar tissue and make the scar look softer and more like the original skin.

 

Microneedling creates a series of micro-trauma that warrants a healing response in a  manner that covers the entire area of the scalp. This together with the applied Platelet-Rich Plasma will stimulate growth activities in the cells.  

Does It Hurt ?

 

It can be painful if the procedure is carried out by injector who is not as skilled. Generally, basic dermal filler procedures require no anaesthetic as the dermal filler contains local anaesthetic. It is simple and straight-forward, involving a few tiny injections directly into the skin, and takes between 15-30 minutes.
Is There Downtime ?

 

No, make-up can be applied immediately after the procedure and you can go straight back to work.
