Introduction

If you're searching for a way to update your profile and achieve the secret to younger-looking skin, you may have come across the term "platelet-rich plasma" or PRP. This innovative therapy has revolutionised the field of aesthetics, providing a safe and effective way to rejuvenate your appearance without surgery. At Profile Aesthetic, we are proud to be one of the leading providers of PRP treatment in Scotland, offering a range of PRP injections to enhance your natural beauty and improve your profile. In this article, we'll explore the benefits of PRP therapy and how it can help you achieve your beauty goals.

What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a cutting-edge therapy that uses your body's own platelets to stimulate healing and rejuvenation. PRP is derived from a sample of your own blood, which is processed to concentrate the platelets and growth factors. This platelet-rich plasma is then injected into the treatment area, where it can promote cell growth and repair, increase collagen production, and improve skin texture and tone. At Profile we use the market leading Cellenis PRP system. It is a simple, safe, easy to use and highly efficient preparation system. PRP therapy is sometimes referred to as the  “Vampire Facial” or “Dracula Therapy”.

What Can PRP Be Used For?

PRP treatment can be used to improve a wide range of aesthetic concerns, including:

It can also be used for:

  • Joint and muscle pain
  • Sports injuries
  • Chronic pain conditions

At Profile Aesthetic, we offer PRP to address a range of issues, whether you're looking to refresh your complexion or restore lost volume, PRP therapy can be tailored to your specific needs.

Does PRP Therapy Really Work?

Yes, PRP therapy has been shown to be a safe and effective way to improve skin texture and tone, reduce the signs of ageing, and promote hair growth. Studies have found that PRP injections can increase collagen production, improve skin hydration, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Many patients also report improved skin texture and a more youthful, radiant complexion.

How Long Does PRP Treatment Last?

The duration of PRP treatment can vary depending on the type of injection and the individual patient. Typically, PRP treatment can last anywhere from several months to over a year. Results can be maintained with follow-up treatments, as recommended by your specialist nurse at Profile Aesthetic.

What Are the Risks of PRP?

PRP treatment is generally considered safe and well-tolerated, with few side effects or risks. As PRP is derived from your own blood, there is little risk of allergic reaction or rejection. However, as with any injection or medical procedure, there is always a small risk of infection or bleeding. Your specialist nurse at Profile Aesthetic will discuss the risks and benefits of PRP treatment with you in detail before your procedure.

How Much Does PRP Cost?

The cost of PRP therapy can vary depending on the area being treated and the number of sessions required. At Profile Aesthetic, we offer competitive pricing starting from £300 per session for skin rejuvenation to £750 for PRP filler. Our experienced nurses will be able to provide you with a more accurate quote based on your specific requirements. See our Pricelist for more information on the cost of PRP treatment.

How Long After PRP Will I See Results?

The results of PRP therapy can take some time to show, as the healing process and collagen production take time. Typically, patients can see improvements in skin texture and tone within a few weeks, with further improvements over the following months. Results can last for up to two years or more, depending on the individual's skin and lifestyle factors.

What Are the Benefits of PRP?

The benefits of PRP therapy include improved skin texture, tone, and firmness, as well as a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. It can also help to reduce scarring, promote hair growth, and improve joint and muscle function. As a non-surgical and minimally invasive treatment, PRP therapy is a safe and effective way to enhance your natural beauty and improve your overall well-being.
