PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) in Bournemouth

How Does PRP Work?

The PRP procedure involves several steps. First, a small amount of the patient’s blood is drawn, typically from the arm. This blood sample is then processed using a centrifuge machine to separate the platelets from other blood components. Once isolated, the concentrated platelets are collected to create the PRP solution.

Next, the targeted treatment area, whether it’s the face for cosmetic purposes, joints for orthopedic issues, or scalp for hair restoration, is prepared and cleansed. The PRP solution is then carefully injected into the treatment site using fine needles.

After the injection, the platelets release growth factors and proteins, initiating the body’s natural healing response. Over time, this process promotes tissue repair, collagen production, and cell regeneration, leading to improved skin texture, reduced wrinkles, enhanced healing of injuries, and potential hair regrowth.

The entire PRP procedure is performed in our accredited and fully equipped aesthetic clinic by our qualified and fully insured clinicians  and can take around 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the specific treatment area and the patient’s individual needs.

10 Benefits of PRP

• Enhances tissue repair and regeneration: PRP contains growth factors that promote the repair and regeneration of damaged tissues, helping to heal injuries and rejuvenate the skin.
• Stimulates collagen production: Collagen is essential for skin strength and elasticity. PRP stimulates the production of collagen, resulting in firmer, more youthful-looking skin.
• Improves skin texture and tone: By promoting cell turnover and collagen production, PRP can improve the overall texture and tone of the skin, making it smoother and more even.
• Reduces fine lines and wrinkles: Increased collagen production and skin rejuvenation provided by PRP can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, resulting in a more youthful complexion.
• Promotes hair growth and thickening: PRP injected into the scalp can stimulate hair follicles, promoting hair growth and thickening for individuals experiencing hair loss or thinning.
• Accelerates wound healing: PRP’s ability to enhance tissue repair can accelerate the healing process for wounds, injuries, and surgical incisions.
• Minimses acne scars and blemishes: PRP can help improve the appearance of acne scars and blemishes by promoting collagen production and skin regeneration.
• Enhances overall skin rejuvenation: PRP rejuvenates the skin by improving its texture, tone, and elasticity, resulting in a more youthful and radiant appearance.
• Provides a natural and safe treatment option: Since PRP utilises the patient’s own blood components, it is considered a safe and natural treatment option with minimal risk of allergic reactions or adverse effects.
• Offers long-lasting results with minimal downtime: PRP treatments typically provide long-lasting results, and since they are minimally invasive, they require minimal downtime compared to surgical procedures.
