PRP Plasma Therapy (Skin and Hair Rejuvenation)

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy uses a small sample of the patient's own blood, which is spun to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, then injected back into the skin or scalp to support natural rejuvenation. At Medica Aesthetica it is used for facial skin quality and for hair, and because it relies on the body's own plasma it avoids foreign substances. A course of sessions is usually advised for the best result.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses the growth factors found in a person's own blood to encourage skin and hair renewal. A small blood sample is taken and spun in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets, which carry growth factors involved in healing and tissue repair. This platelet-rich plasma is then injected into the target area — the face for skin rejuvenation, or the scalp to support hair — where the growth factors are intended to stimulate the skin's own regenerative processes. Because the material comes from the patient, there is no foreign substance involved. At Medica Aesthetica the treatment begins with an assessment of the skin or scalp and a discussion of expectations. The blood draw and preparation take a short time, after which the plasma is injected through fine needles across the treatment area in a session lasting around forty-five minutes including preparation. There may be temporary redness, mild swelling or small marks that settle within a day or two. Because PRP works by gradually stimulating the body's own response, results build over weeks and are strongest after a planned course of sessions rather than a single visit, with maintenance treatments thereafter. PRP suits people wanting a natural-feeling improvement in skin quality, fine lines and radiance, or support for thinning hair, who prefer an approach based on their own biology. It is avoided in certain blood, clotting and systemic conditions, and the doctor confirms suitability and reviews contraindications before treating. Standard aftercare advice — avoiding intense heat, sauna and heavy exertion for a short period — applies.
