PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) for the face is a natural skin-rejuvenating treatment that uses plasma from your own blood to stimulate skin renewal and collagen production. Also known as the Vampire Facial , it's often used for skin improvement, wrinkle reduction, and the treatment of scars or pigmentation.

1. Blood collection: A small amount of blood is taken, similar to a regular blood test.

2. Centrifugation: The blood is separated in a special centrifuge, isolating the plasma with a high concentration of platelets and growth factors.

3. Application to the skin: The PRP is applied to the skin via:

- Microneedling: where small needles help absorb the PRP into the skin.

- Injections: to deliver the PRP deeper into the skin layers.

This method stimulates natural skin renewal, collagen production and elastin production.

PRP can be used for:

• Face: Fine lines, wrinkles, dull skin, pigmentation and acne scars.
• Hair: against hair loss and thinning hair.
• Neck and décolleté: Firming and evening out the skin.
• Hands: Rejuvenation and reduction of age spots.

PRP is ideal for people who:

• Want to improve their skin in a natural way.
• Want to reduce fine lines, wrinkles or scars.
• Want to refresh dull, tired skin.
• Don't want to use synthetic fillers or Botox.

Not suitable for blood disorders, pregnancy, breastfeeding or active skin infections.

1. Intake interview: Discussion of your wishes and skin condition.

2. Preparation: The skin is cleaned and, if necessary, anesthetized with a cream.

3. Blood collection and centrifuge: The PRP is removed from your blood.

4. Application: With microneedling or injections, the PRP is introduced into the skin.

5. Aftercare: The skin may be a little red, but there is little recovery time required.

• Immediately after the treatment: slight redness and a fresh glow.
• After 2-3 weeks: visible improvement in skin texture and firmness.
• After 3 months: optimal results because collagen continues to build up.

For long-lasting effects , 3 treatments are recommended with intervals of 4-6 weeks.

PRP is safe because it uses the body's own material. Possible side effects include:

• Redness and swelling: Usually subsides within 24-48 hours.
• Mild bruising: Especially with injections.
• Sensitivity or tightness: May last for several days.
• Allergic reaction: Very rare, as no external substances are used.
