Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP)

PRP uses concentrated growth factors from your own blood to stimulate collagen production, improve skin quality and support hair restoration — naturally.

Your Trusted Partner in Aesthetics

Why Choose PRP Therapy?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is chosen when you want to harness your body's own healing and regenerative capacity. A small blood sample is processed to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, which are then reinjected into the treatment area to stimulate collagen production, improve skin quality and support tissue repair.

PRP is versatile — it's used for facial rejuvenation, hair thinning, hand rejuvenation and scar improvement. Because the treatment uses your own blood, there is minimal risk of adverse reaction. Results develop gradually as the growth factors stimulate natural healing processes over the following weeks and months.

Procedure Details

A small blood sample is taken from your arm and placed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other blood components. The concentrated PRP is then injected into the treatment area using fine needles. The growth factors present in PRP stimulate collagen and elastin production, improving skin quality, texture and firmness over time. A standard course involves three sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, with a maintenance session at 9–12 months.
