Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Treatment For The Face
Platelet Rich Plasma therapy, also known as PRP Facelift, is a relatively new skin rejuvenation technique. This treatment uses your blood plasma to stimulate healthy tissue growth and healing at the cellular level.
PRP therapy is used on any part of the body; however, it has been the most popular treatment for facial rejuvenation and hair loss. It improves skin texture and tone, regenerates collagen, helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles, tackles blemishes, improves scarring, and restore a more youthful glow.
What Are Plasma And Platelets?
Plasma is a light yellow liquid when it has been separated from the rest of the blood, which is mainly made of water and proteins.
Platelets are small cell fragments in your bloodstream made in our bone marrow, which makes the clotting process possible to stop bleeding when you have an injury or cut.
What Is PRP?
PRP is an advanced cutting-edge technology that uses the patient’s blood, spun in a centrifuge, leaving plasma rich in platelets. The concentrated platelets contain growth factors that are vital to initiate tissue repair and regeneration.
Growth Factors
These growth factors present in the alpha granules of platelets play a vital part in new tissue regeneration and collagen production. There are many types of growth factors present in platelets, but the three key ones used in skin and hair rejuvenation are:
EGF
VEGF
PDGF
EGF
EGF (Epidermal growth factor) helps stimulate new cell growth, new collagen and elastin fibres to improve the skin texture and elasticity. EGF plays a vital role in tissue repair.
VEGF
VEGF
(Vascular endothelial growth factor) is a signalling protein that helps grow new blood vessels and helps restore blood supply to cells and tissues.
PDGF
PDGF
(Platelet-derived growth factor) helps with healing, repair and stimulates the growth of its target cells and proliferation

When PRP is injected into the skin, it causes a mild inflammation that triggers the healing cascade.
The platelets release enzymes that aid in the healing process further, the cell respond by delivering stem cells and growth factors to mend the damaged area.
As a result, new collagen is formed. Collagen matures as it shrinks, producing a tight and strengthened effect in the injured area.
The tissue is remodelled to a more healthy and younger condition when treating injured, sun-exposed, or aged tissue.
PRP therapy is a relatively quick process and requires minimal downtime.

How Many Treatments Are Required?
You require 3-4 treatments spread out every 3-6 weeks, depending on what you are treating and skin type. We recommend a booster treatment at 6 months to maintain the results. Patients who have relatively good skin can opt to have one treatment to preserve their skin.
Results for a course of PRP can last up to 18 months. A one-time treatment lasts for several months, but the results can vary depending on a person’s age, skin condition and how much sun exposure they have.
