Platelet-rich plasma is a concentrated form of your own blood, enriched with platelets, growth factors, and stem cells, which are crucial for healing and regeneration. This golden-coloured plasma is derived from processing a small sample of your blood through a centrifuge to concentrate these vital components.
The result is a powerful serum that, when reintroduced into targeted areas of your body, can accelerate healing, promote cell growth, and rejuvenate your skin and hair from within.
PRP therapy is especially useful for promoting skin rejuvenation and treating hair loss.
When applied to the skin, PRP can reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scars, and sun damage, enhancing the skin's overall texture and tone.
For individuals experiencing hair loss, PRP therapy stimulates hair follicles, encouraging new hair growth and increasing hair density.
The process of PRP therapy at Aesthetix Medical Clinic is meticulously designed for comfort and effectiveness:
This minimally invasive procedure is relatively quick, with minimal discomfort, and leverages your body's healing mechanisms for natural, lasting results.
After a PRP treatment, the aftercare is straightforward, focusing on maximising the therapy's benefits while ensuring a smooth recovery. You will be advised to stay hydrated and maintain a healthy diet to support the body's healing process.
It's recommended to avoid touching or washing the treated area for a specified period, usually for the first few hours, to allow the PRP to absorb fully. It's common to experience slight swelling or redness at the injection site, which usually diminishes after a few days. To reduce any possible discomfort, refrain from vigorous activities and direct sunlight exposure for several days following the treatment.
