PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. It is prepared by collecting a small amount of the patient’s blood and processing it in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelet-containing plasma.
PRP generally remains a liquid platelet concentrate. PRF (platelet rich fibrin) contains a fibrin structure and may have a thicker consistency, depending on how it is prepared.
The appropriate option depends on the treatment area and intended use.
No. The PRP used during the treatment is prepared from the patient’s own blood.
No. Suitability depends on the treatment being considered, the patient’s medical history, medications, blood health, skin or hair concern and other individual factors.
There is no single treatment schedule suitable for everyone. Some people may undergo one treatment, while others may be advised to consider a series of treatments.
The recommended number and spacing of treatments will be discussed following assessment.
The timing and extent of any change vary between patients and treatments. Some effects may develop gradually over a period of weeks or months.
Results cannot be guaranteed.
Temporary redness, swelling, bruising, tenderness or sensitivity may occur. Treatments involving RF microneedling or chemical peeling may also involve visible redness, dryness or peeling.
