Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

Platelet-rich plasma uses a small sample of your own blood, spun to concentrate its platelets and growth factors, which is then injected to stimulate skin repair and rejuvenation. Because it is derived entirely from you, it is well tolerated and a natural option for improving skin quality and tone. The clinic also offers platelet-rich fibrin (Mesoregen), a second-generation preparation that releases growth factors more gradually. A short course gives the most noticeable results.

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is a regenerative skin treatment that uses your own blood's healing components. A small sample is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets, which are rich in growth factors that signal tissue repair and collagen production. This concentrated plasma is then injected into the skin to rejuvenate tone, texture and firmness, and at AWitczak Clinic it can also be combined with Dermapen microneedling. The process — blood draw, preparation and treatment — takes around forty-five to sixty minutes, with numbing cream applied for comfort. Because the material is entirely your own, there is no risk of an allergic reaction to a foreign substance, which makes PRP a popular choice for patients who prefer a natural approach. Expect mild redness or small bruises for a day or two. Results build gradually as collagen remodels over several weeks, so a course of sessions spaced a few weeks apart is recommended, with occasional maintenance. The clinic also offers platelet-rich fibrin under the Mesoregen name — a preparation in which the platelets are held in a fibrin matrix that releases growth factors more slowly for a sustained regenerative effect — for one or two areas. Both are well suited to dull or tired skin and improving overall skin quality. Suitability is assessed at consultation; the treatments are not performed in pregnancy or in certain blood or clotting conditions.
