What Is PRP
PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. It is created by taking a small sample of your blood and processing it to concentrate the platelets and growth factors.
These growth factors play a role in supporting tissue repair, circulation, and cellular activity. When reintroduced into the skin or scalp, PRP can help stimulate natural processes linked to skin quality and hair health.
Because PRP uses your own blood, is it biocompatible and well tolerated for suitable clients.
PRP Microneedling For Skin
PRP microneedling combines controlled microneedling with the application of PRP to support skin renewal.
This treatment is commonly used to help you improve:
- Skin texture and tone
- Fine lines and early ageing
- Dull or tired looking skin
- Post acne skin quality
Microneedling creates micro-channels in the skin, allowing PRP to be absorbed more effectively and supporting collagen stimulation over time. Results develop gradually over a course of treatments as the skin responds.
PRP for Hair Loss
PRP can also be used as a supportive treatment for hair thinning, and early hair loss in suitable candidates.
PRP is injected into targeted areas of the scalp to help support:
- Hair follicle function
- Scalp function
- Hair density & strength
This treatment is most effective when hair follicles are still active and is often used as part of a structured, ongoing plan rather than a one-off session.

Book NowFrequently Asked Questions
What happens during a PRP consultation?
We discuss your concerns, desired results and relevant medical history. Your practitioner will assess the treatment area, explain the procedure and confirm whether PRP is suitable for you.
How is platelet-rich plasma prepared?
A small blood sample is taken and processed using specialist equipment. This separates the components of the blood so the platelet-rich plasma can be collected for treatment.
What is the difference between PRP microneedling and PRP facial rejuvenation?
PRP microneedling combines controlled microneedling with the application of PRP. Facial rejuvenation may involve carefully applying or introducing PRP into selected facial areas. The most appropriate approach will be discussed during consultation.
Does PRP treatment hurt?
Sensation varies depending on the selected treatment and area. Temporary discomfort may be experienced during microneedling or when PRP is introduced into the skin. Comfort measures will be discussed before treatment.
Is there downtime after PRP?
Temporary redness, tenderness, swelling or small marks may occur. The level and duration of downtime vary depending on the treatment area and technique used. You will receive personalised aftercare instructions.
How many PRP treatments will I need?
The number of sessions depends on your skin concerns, starting point, selected treatment and individual response. PRP is often planned as a personalised course rather than a single treatment.
When will I see results?
PRP results are gradual rather than immediate. Improvements may develop during the weeks following treatment as the skin responds and renews.
Can the face and neck be treated during the same appointment?
Suitable clients may have both areas included within a personalised face and neck treatment plan. The treatment areas and approach will be confirmed during consultation.
Are PRP results guaranteed?
No treatment can guarantee a specific result. Outcomes vary according to your skin, health, treatment plan and individual biological response.
How do I get started?
Begin by booking a consultation. Your concerns and suitability will be assessed before a personalised treatment plan is recommended.
