MICRONEEDLING WITH PRP
Microneedling with PRP combines the benefits of microneedling with the regenerative properties of your own platelet-rich plasma (PRP). This treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture, reducing fine lines, and addressing various skin concerns such as acne scars and hyperpigmentation.
ABOUT microneedling
Microneedling with PRP is a minimally invasive procedure that creates micro-wounds in the skin to stimulate collagen production. This multipurpose treatment leverages the body’s natural healing process and enhances it with the power of your own plasma. PRP contains proteins, including growth factors and cytokines, which aid in skin tissue repair and regeneration. To achieve optimal results, a series of multiple treatments is typically recommended.
wHAT IT IS
Microneedling uses a handheld device equipped with extremely sharp, sterile needles to puncture the skin and stimulate collagen production. The addition of PRP makes the treatment more effective, as the plasma contains essential growth factors that accelerate the healing process and promote healthier skin.
Preparation: A blood sample is taken from you, and a centrifuge is used to separate the PRP from the rest of the blood.
Treatment: Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed, and a numbing cream will be applied. During the procedure, your own PRP is applied to the treatment area. You may feel warmth and a scratching/pulling sensation as the device moves over your skin, but the numbing cream minimizes discomfort.
how it works
Microneedling with PRP is a minimally invasive procedure with very little downtime. Here’s what you can expect:
Immediately After Treatment: Your skin will likely be red and swollen, which can last up to a few days.
Post-Treatment Care: You can return to your normal routine immediately, but it’s important to avoid sun exposure until your skin heals fully.

HAIR RESTORATION
Hair loss and thinning hair are common concerns for both men and women. If you’re experiencing these issues, PRP hair restoration might offer a minimally invasive approach to support hair regrowth. By utilizing your body’s regenerative properties, PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy aims to stimulate hair growth naturally, potentially promoting healthier and thicker hair. Individual results will vary.
ABOUT hair restoration
During the PRP procedure, a practitioner will draw a small amount of your blood and use a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other components. This concentrated PRP, which contains growth factors, is then injected into the scalp in areas of hair thinning. The growth factors in PRP are thought to enhance healing, improve blood flow, and support the activity of hair follicles, which may encourage new hair growth and strengthen existing strands. Individual results can vary, and more than one treatment may be necessary to achieve desired outcomes.
While some studies suggest that PRP can help reduce hair loss, particularly in individuals with androgenic alopecia (pattern baldness), results are not guaranteed. PRP therapy may be a promising option for those seeking to address hair loss without surgery, but effectiveness will vary among individuals.
wHAT IT IS
PRP hair restoration is a non-surgical treatment that uses your body’s own platelets—blood cells that are involved in healing processes—to help rejuvenate hair follicles and potentially stimulate new hair growth. A small sample of your blood is drawn and processed to concentrate the platelets. This concentrated PRP is then injected into areas of your scalp with thinning or hair loss. The growth factors released by the platelets may support follicle health, potentially leading to hair regrowth over time. Outcomes can vary based on individual factors.
how it works
Before your PRP treatment, you’ll be advised to avoid using hair products like gel or hairspray for three days, and to refrain from using tobacco, alcohol, or caffeine for at least two days, as these substances can interfere with your body’s healing processes and potentially affect your results. The procedure typically involves minimal discomfort, with most patients experiencing only mild soreness or tenderness at the injection sites. As with any medical procedure, experiences can vary, and your practitioner will provide specific pre- and post-treatment care instructions.

FAQs
-
PRP injections are generally well-tolerated by most patients, with discomfort similar to that of standard injections. A local anesthetic or numbing cream may be applied to help minimize pain. Mild soreness or tenderness at the injection sites can last for 3-5 days but typically subsides quickly. Individual pain tolerance and experiences may vary.
-
PRP hair restoration usually involves minimal downtime. Most patients can resume normal activities shortly after treatment; however, it is advised to avoid washing the scalp or engaging in strenuous activities for the first 24-48 hours to optimize results and minimize potential side effects.
-
Results from PRP hair restoration can vary based on individual factors such as genetic predisposition, overall health, and the extent of hair loss. Some individuals may experience results that last between 1 to 5 years, but regular follow-up treatments every 4-6 months are often recommended to maintain and potentially enhance the outcomes.
-
Common side effects may include mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection sites. In rare cases, more serious side effects such as infection, nerve injury, or allergic reactions may occur. These side effects are generally mild and temporary, but individual experiences can vary. It’s important to discuss any concerns with your practitioner before undergoing treatment.
-
PRP hair restoration may be suitable for healthy men and women experiencing thinning hair, a receding hairline, or pattern baldness. However, it may not be recommended for individuals with certain medical conditions, such as blood disorders, Hepatitis C, HIV, or those taking blood-thinning medications. A consultation with a qualified practitioner is essential to determine if PRP is the right treatment for your specific needs and medical history.
-
May Stimulate Natural Hair Growth: PRP is intended to enhance the function of hair follicles, potentially promoting healthier and thicker hair.
Can Improve Hair Density and Thickness: By increasing blood supply to the follicles, PRP aims to support stronger hair growth, although results can vary.
Minimally Invasive with No Surgery: PRP offers a non-surgical alternative to hair transplants, potentially with less downtime and discomfort.
Personalized Treatment: Each PRP session is tailored to the individual’s hair restoration needs, with treatment plans developed based on the patient’s unique hair loss pattern and goals.
PRp/prf BIO FILLER
Bio fillers, like PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin), are natural treatments used to rejuvenate and add volume to the skin. It works well for fine rhytides reduction as well as to volumize, contour and rejuvenate the face, neck and hands.
ABOUT BIO FILLER
Bio fillers work by harnessing the natural healing properties of your own blood to rejuvenate and add volume to the skin. Here's how the process typically goes:
Blood Draw: A small amount of your blood is drawn, usually from your arm.
Centrifugation: The blood sample is placed in a centrifuge, which spins it at a high speed to separate its components. This process isolates the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) from the rest of the blood.
Preparation: The PRP or PRF is carefully collected. PRF tends to have a gel-like consistency due to its higher fibrin content.
Injection: The concentrated PRP or PRF is injected into the targeted areas of your skin. These areas might include fine lines, wrinkles, and regions that need volumization or rejuvenation.
Natural Healing: The growth factors and proteins in PRP or PRF stimulate collagen and elastin production, promote cell regeneration, and enhance overall skin health. This leads to improved skin texture, reduced wrinkles, and a more youthful appearance over time.
wHAT IT IS
Bio Filler is a completely natural, regenerative, and volumizing filler derived from your own blood, using either a PRP or PRF tube. Rich in serum albumin and growth factors, Bio Filler is an ideal treatment for skin rejuvenation and volumization. By harnessing the body’s natural growth factors, it offers a safer, more holistic alternative to artificial fillers.
how it works
Bio fillers, like PRP and PRF is a minimally invasive procedure with very little downtime. Here’s what you can expect:
Immediately After Treatment: Your skin will likely be red and swollen, which can last up to a few days.
