iPRF (Platelet Rich Fibrin)
iPRF at Aesthetic Nurse's Clinic in Edinburgh is an autologous injectable treatment using a patient blood sample. The clinic performs basic morphological testing with a full blood count before the procedure, then draws blood and uses a horizontal centrifuge to concentrate platelets within plasma. The resulting liquid fibrin is injected into targeted areas and should be administered approximately five minutes after centrifugation. It may suit concerns such as wrinkles, laxity, tear troughs and dark circles. A consultation is required to assess health, medicines and suitability.
PRF (Platelet Rich Fibrin)
PRF (Platelet Rich Fibrin) is an injectable treatment for the eye area at Aesthetic Nurse's Clinic Edinburgh. A small blood sample is processed using a horizontal centrifuge to separate and concentrate platelets within the plasma. The resulting fibrin is then injected into targeted under-eye areas. This treatment may suit people concerned about under-eye hollowness, dark circles, reduced skin density, or a dull-looking eye area. It uses your own blood as the sample and focuses on supporting a refreshed appearance around the eyes. Individual suitability, expected response, and treatment planning should be discussed with the clinic.
PRP - Platelet Rich Plasma (Vampire Facelift)
PRP Platelet Rich Plasma, also known as a vampire facelift, uses a small sample of your own peripheral blood. At Aesthetic Nurse's Clinic Edinburgh, the sample is centrifuged to separate its components before platelet-rich plasma and fibrin are introduced using a mesotherapy technique. The treatment is intended to support visible improvements in skin quality and texture, with potential applications for mature skin, reduced elasticity, wrinkles, pigmentation, acne scars, stretch marks, broken capillaries, rosacea and alopecia. It is a personalised procedure, with suitability reviewed before treatment.
PRP joint injection
PRP joint injection at Aesthetic Nurse's Clinic Edinburgh uses platelet-rich plasma prepared from the patient’s own blood. Centrifugation separates platelet-rich and platelet-poor plasma and red blood cells before injection at a ligament or tendon attachment, joint capsule or inside the joint. For knee or shoulder treatment, the clinic states that PRP may be combined with collagen Guna, using Collagen MD-KNEE or MD-SHOULDER depending on the joint. Up to three treatments may be performed over six months, with follow-up planned two to four weeks after the procedure.
