How Many Treatments
Will I Need?
What Can I Expect
During Treatment?
Your procedure will start with the extraction of a small volume of blood. This amount is less than that of a typical blood donation. The sample is then spun in a centrifuge to separate the portions of plasma and haemoglobin. Under a topical local anaesthesia, the plasma portion of your blood is then injected back into the skin where it can work its rejuvenation magic.

Are There Risks Associated
With PRP?
As the treatment utilises the patient’s own blood, without the use of any additional products not already found in the body, there is an extremely low chance of intolerance or rejection. Bruising at the injection sites is one of the primary risks, which can occur in any individual irrespective of the injector’s skill or experience.
