PRP platelet-rich plasma injections to rejuvenate skin and nourish the scalp, by a doctor
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is plasma from your own blood with a concentrated level of platelets, rich in growth factors that stimulate repair of the skin and hair roots. It is used for dull skin, acne marks and early hair thinning, with nothing introduced from outside the body.
What PRP is and what it can do
Blood contains platelets, which store many growth factors such as PDGF, TGF-β, VEGF and EGF that the body uses to repair tissue after injury. Drawing 10–20 ml of blood and centrifuging it yields plasma with 3–5 times the normal concentration of platelets. When injected back into the skin or scalp, the growth factors stimulate fibroblasts to produce collagen, increase blood flow and extend the growth phase of the hair. The results are brighter, smoother skin, shallower acne marks and less thinning where the hair roots have not yet miniaturised. PRP does not add volume and is not a substitute for filler or anti-wrinkle injections.
On the day
What it is used for
Dull, tired facial skin
Brighter, smoother skin after 2–3 sessions, for those who prefer no synthetic products
Acne marks and shallow acne scars
Combined with fractional laser or microneedling, it speeds healing and improves results
Dark circles and thin under-eye skin
Improves under-eye skin quality where filler is unsuitable. Results are gradual
Thinning hair, early hair loss
Slows shedding and increases hair thickness where roots are still present. Used with medication and laser, or after a hair transplant to help grafts take
Other areas
Neck, backs of the hands, décolletage and stretch marks, for smoother skin texture
Recommended programmes
| Goal | Sessions | Interval | Maintenance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Facial rejuvenation | 3 sessions | Every 4 weeks | Every 3–6 months |
| Acne marks, with laser | 3–4 sessions | Every 4–6 weeks | According to the acne plan |
| Scalp, thinning hair | 3–4 sessions | Every 4 weeks | Every 3–6 months |
| After a hair transplant | 1–3 sessions | On the day of surgery, then at months 1 and 3 | As the doctor advises |
Afterwards
PRP results are gradual and depend on the quality of each person's platelets. Smokers, people who sleep little or those with chronic conditions may see less benefit. It is not suited to deep acne scars, deep folds or bald areas where the roots have miniaturised, which call for laser, filler or a hair transplant instead. Not for people with low platelets, blood disorders, cancer under active treatment, a bloodstream infection, blood thinners, pregnancy or severe anaemia. Side effects are redness, bruising and a dull ache for 1–2 days. Allergy does not occur because it is your own blood, but infection at the injection points is possible without clean aftercare

Frequently Asked Questions
Can PRP replace a hair transplant?
No. PRP strengthens the roots you still have and slows shedding, but it does not create new roots in areas that are already bald. Those areas need a hair transplant.
How many sessions before I see results?
Most people notice fresher skin after the second session. Results for acne marks and hair are clear at 3–4 months after starting, so we recommend at least 3 sessions.
Does it hurt?
The blood draw is like a routine health check. After numbing cream, the injections feel like a series of pinpricks. The scalp is slightly more sensitive than the face, and the doctor uses vibration or cooling to ease the sensation.
Can it be combined with filler or anti-wrinkle injections?
Yes. They work in different layers for different purposes. The doctor usually injects the anti-wrinkle product and filler first, then does PRP at the next visit or on the same day in separate areas.
