PRP FACIAL
Combining the incredible benefits of SkinPen® microneedling with your body’s very own repair system - providing all-over skin rejuvenation.
-
PRP (aka platelet rich plasma)* is the portion of blood plasma containing a high concentration of platelets, which are responsible for healing and regeneration.
In this treatment we harness your body’s incredible healing properties (by drawing your blood, and collecting the PRP through separating in a centrifuge) and infusing it into the skin via precision microneedling or direct injection).
*Also sometimes referred to as “stem cells”.
-
Medical-grade numbing cream is applied to the treatment areas and a vial of your blood is drawn.
While the numbing takes effect we put the vial of your blood into a centrifuge to separate the PRP from the rest of your blood cells (fun fact - PRP is a golden/yellow colour!).
We then draw the separated PRP into multiple syringes.
The numbing cream is removed and we begin microneedling using the SkinPen® Precision Microneedling device. We work in small areas of the face at a time - going over the skin with the SKinPen®, placing a few drop of you PRP onto the skin, then going over the area with the SkinPen® again to infuse the PRP into the skin.
The PRP is infused over the entire face, neck, and partial décolletage. If there is any remaining PRP we can also inject it directly into problem areas for an enhanced result.

PRP can help regenerate and revitalise damaged skin, reduce fine lines and help improve skin texture.
Your PRP cells act as ambitious little copy cats to mimic the production of collagen and elastin fibres, for younger, healthier skin.
Our PRP facial is suitable for most skin concerns such as tired and dry skin, skin with lost elasticity, uneven pigmentation, wrinkles and dark circles as well as overall texture and tone improvement.
It is also a great option for those looking for a natural treatment, and is allergy friendly (as this uses your own plasma!).
As PRP works on the basis that the patient’s own natural healing powers may slow down or even reverse the aging process, it’s a revolutionary repair system that places growth factors in the exact location where we want the skin to repair and rejuvenate itself.

Depending on your individual skin and what you are trying to treat you may need follow up treatments, with results lasting up to 6-12 months.
-
Discomfort level will vary for each individual, but we do all we can to make the experience comfortable.
We offer medical-grade numbing cream prior to treatment to make the experience more comfortable.
The microneedling portion of treatment can feel a little “scratchy” in some areas, and when the PRP its injected into specific areas it can feel slightly uncomfortable for some clients.
For those who find getting their blood drawn to be uncomfortble, we can also offer numbing cream for that part of treatment as well. We have had many clients say that they don’t even feel it happening.
-
Post treatment, your face will be red and feel quite warm. A cooling mask will be applied while your heat subsides and calming serum will be administered pot treatment.
