Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is composed of two primary elements: plasma, the liquid portion of blood, and platelets, a specific type of blood cell crucial for healing processes throughout the body. While platelets are renowned for their clotting capabilities, they also house growth factors that can initiate cell reproduction and stimulate tissue regeneration or healing in the targeted area. Essentially, platelet-rich plasma is a form of blood containing an elevated concentration of platelets.
​
The creation of platelet-rich plasma involves drawing a blood sample from the patient and placing it into a centrifuge device. This device rapidly spins the sample, effectively separating the platelets and concentrating them within the plasma by removing other blood components.
PRP finds application in facial and hair treatments, harnessing the regenerative potential of platelets to enhance healing and tissue regeneration in the treated areas.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses concentrated platelets from the patient's blood to stimulate hair growth. The procedure involves drawing blood, isolating platelets in a centrifuge, and then injecting them into the scalp. PRP promotes hair follicle proliferation and improves hair health, although results vary, requiring multiple sessions for optimal outcomes.

Post CareAnti-wrinkle injections entail minimal downtime, allowing you to resume regular activities after the procedure. Some common post-treatment effects include mild swelling, redness, and occasional bruising at the injection sites. Comprehensive aftercare instructions will be provided. To enhance safety and achieve optimal results, consider the following precautions: - Maintain an upright position for at least 4 hours following the treatment. - Refrain from alcohol and activities that generate heat for 24 hours, such as strenuous exercise, spas, solariums, saunas, hot showers, or prolonged sun exposure. - Avoid touching, rubbing, or massaging the treated area for 24 hours. - Steer clear of applying makeup or active skincare, including AHAs, retinols, or Vitamin C, to the treated area for 24 hours to minimise infection risks. - Postpone any facial treatments like laser procedures, peels, or waxing for at least 2 weeks after the injection. - In case of a mild headache after the anti-wrinkle treatment, consider using pain relief such as paracetamol. Avoid anti-inflammatory medications like aspirin, fish oils, and Vitamin E, as they may lead to bleeding or bruising. - Apply ice to alleviate discomfort, swelling, and bruising. - Schedule a recommended 2-week follow-up appointment for a positive outcome and potential additional units if needed.

How long will the results last?Typically, most individuals experience the benefits of Anti-Wrinkle injections for approximately 3-4 months. Although the treated muscles gradually revert to their pre-injection state, resulting in the return of wrinkles, many people observe that the lines still appear softer. This outcome is attributed to higher doses, which induce relaxation across the entire muscle. Individuals seeking a more natural look with residual movement may find that the treatment's duration is shorter but delivers a softer aesthetic. It is crucial to understand that the treated area doesn't immediately resume normal activity, transitioning from frozen muscles for three months to sudden movement overnight. The muscles begin to contract again as new nerve 'sprouting' takes place, typically occurring 4-6 weeks post-treatment. To sustain muscle relaxation and prevent the emergence of new wrinkles, repeated injections are advisable, positioning Anti-Wrinkle injections as an ideal preventative measure. Through repeated treatments, the effects often endure for more extended periods, as muscles gradually weaken over time. This results in longer intervals between treatments. Tailoring the dosage is crucial, and it may take a few sessions to determine the optimal dose (usually around three treatments), striking a balance between achieving the desired results and ensuring treatment longevity. Various factors, including metabolism, intense exercise, and concurrent illnesses, can influence the duration of the effects.
