Harness your own growth factors for deep skin regeneration
The Treatment
Your own biology, doing the work
PRP Therapy, or Platelet Rich Plasma therapy, is one of the most powerful regenerative treatments available. It uses your own blood, processed to concentrate the growth factors naturally found in your platelets, and reintroduces those growth factors into the skin to trigger deep collagen production and cellular renewal.
The process begins with a small blood draw, similar to a routine blood test. Your blood is then placed into a centrifuge which spins at high speed to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the rest of the blood. This concentrated plasma, packed with your own growth factors, is then used as the treatment
PRP can be administered in two ways. As an injectable treatment, it is introduced directly into the skin using fine needles, targeting areas of concern such as the under-eye area, fine lines, skin laxity or hair loss. As the Vampire Facial, it is combined with microneedling, where the PRP is applied to the skin immediately after needling and driven into the micro-channels created, amplifying the regenerative effect significantly.
Because PRP uses only your own biological material, it is exceptionally well tolerated and carries no risk of allergic reaction. Results are gradual and natural looking, building over three to six months as your skin produces fresh collagen. Most clients recommend a course of three sessions for the most comprehensive and lasting outcome.

The Process
What to Expect
Consultation and assessment
I discuss your skin concerns, assess the areas to be treated and confirm that PRP is the right option for you. Your medical history is reviewed at this stage.
Blood draw
A small amount of blood is taken from your arm, identical to a routine blood test. This typically takes just a few minutes.
Centrifuge processing
Your blood is placed into a medical-grade centrifuge and spun to separate and concentrate the platelet-rich plasma from the rest of the sample.
Skin preparation
The treatment area is cleansed and a topical anaesthetic is applied where needed to keep you comfortable.
PRP application
Depending on your treatment plan, the concentrated PRP is either injected precisely into the target areas or, for the Vampire Facial, combined with microneedling to drive the growth factors deeper into the skin.
Soothe and protect
Once treatment is complete, a calming serum and SPF are applied to the skin to support the initial healing phase.
Aftercare guidance
I walk you through what to expect over the following days and how to care for your skin to get the best possible results.

PRP | Microneedling FAQs
Is PRP safe?
Yes. Because PRP uses only your own blood, there is no risk of allergic reaction or rejection. It is one of the most biocompatible treatments available.
What is the difference between PRP injections and the Vampire Facial?
PRP injections deliver growth factors directly into the skin via fine needles and are ideal for targeting specific areas. The Vampire Facial combines PRP with microneedling for a more comprehensive skin renewal treatment across a larger area. Both use the same concentrated plasma from your own blood.
Does it hurt?
The blood draw is the same as any routine blood test. A numbing cream is applied to the treatment area beforehand so the injections or microneedling are kept as comfortable as possible.
How many sessions do I need?
Most clients benefit most from a course of three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart. Maintenance sessions once or twice a year help to sustain results over time.
When will I see results?
PRP works gradually. You may notice an initial improvement in skin texture and radiance within a few weeks, with collagen production continuing to build over three to six months.
Can PRP treat hair loss?
Yes. PRP injections into the scalp stimulate dormant hair follicles and can help slow hair loss and encourage regrowth. This is a separate treatment and requires its own consultation and course of sessions.
