A Biological Approach to Skin Conditions
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is an advanced biological treatment within medical practice. This technique utilises concentrated growth factors from the patient’s own blood to promote cellular repair and regeneration in skin affected by specific conditions or physiological changes.
The growth factors contained in platelets are able to stimulate different mechanisms to produce collagen and improve the quality of the existing collagen. Areas include:
- Acne scars – PRP promotes tissue repair and collagen remodelling to improve the appearance of atrophic scarring.
- Under eye dark circles – Improve skin quality and thickness in the periorbital area, which may contribute to the appearance of dark circles.
- Rosacea – PRP’s role is improving barrier function and reducing inflammation.
- Ageing skin – Address physiological changes associated with skin ageing, such as reduced collagen, skin laxity, and textural changes.
In addition to facial applications, PRP is also utilised as a medical treatment to support hair follicle health and promote hair growth in certain types of alopecia.

FAQs For Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
What does the treatment involve?
Prior to treatment a topical local anaesthetic will be applied to the skin of the injection site for 20-30 minutes. During this time a small amount of blood is taken from your arm and placed into a centrifuge. The centrifuge spins the blood in order to separate the red blood cells from the platelet rich plasma, the plasma is then injected into the skin to stimulate growth factors and fibroblast cells.
The fibroblast cells are stimulated to produce new collagen, which contributes to improved skin structure, firmness, and overall health.
Is the injection painful?
Prior to treatment a local anaesthetic cream is applied to minimise any effects and make the treatments more comfortable.
How long does treatment take?
The whole procedure takes from 30 minutes, depending on the area(s) to be treated.
How soon shall I see the results?
Visible improvements typically develop over several weeks following a course of treatments. The longevity of the therapeutic effects can vary, often extending for many months, and maintenance sessions may be recommended to sustain optimal skin health.
Are there any side effects?
Due to using the body’s own Plasma, there are few side effects associated with PRP. After treatment some common injection-related reactions might occur. These reactions may include redness, swelling, pain, itching, bruising and tenderness at the treatment site. They have generally been described as mild to moderate and typically resolve spontaneously a few days after treatment.
