PRP is a treatment derived from your own blood. A small sample of blood is taken, processed to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, and the resulting plasma is administered via injection into the treatment area.

PRP may be discussed at consultation for concerns related to skin quality, texture, and tone on the face, neck, and chest, and for scalp and hair concerns. Suitability is individually assessed.

What to expect

A blood draw is performed at your appointment. The sample is processed in a centrifuge to separate the plasma. The prepared plasma is then administered via a series of small injections into the treatment area. The appointment typically takes 45 to 60 minutes. Some discomfort during injection is normal. Topical anaesthetic is available and can be discussed at consultation.

How many treatments

A series of treatments is typically recommended. The number and frequency are discussed and planned at your initial consultation based on your individual circumstances. Maintenance treatments are generally recommended following the initial course.

Potential risks and side effects

As with all injectable treatments, PRP carries risks. These include but are not limited to:

• Redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection site

• Tenderness and discomfort

• Temporary skin irregularities

• Infection (rare)

• Allergic reaction (rare, however as PRP is derived from your own blood, this risk is minimal)

• No guarantee of a specific outcome

All risks are discussed in full at your consultation before any decision is made to proceed.

Aftercare

• Avoid touching, rubbing, or applying pressure to the treated area for 24 hours

• Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours

• Avoid alcohol for 24 hours

• Avoid sun exposure to the treated area and apply SPF if going outdoors

• Avoid anti-inflammatory medications unless medically required, as these may affect the treatment

• Avoid makeup on the treated area for 24 hours

• Contact DrGlow if you experience any unexpected symptoms or have concerns following treatment

PRP is a medical procedure. Individual responses to treatment vary. Results are not guaranteed. This information is general in nature and does not substitute for a personalised medical consultation.

PRF is a second-generation platelet concentrate treatment, also derived from your own blood. The processing method differs from PRP and produces a fibrin matrix that releases growth factors over a longer period. Like PRP, PRF is administered via injection into the treatment area.

PRF may be discussed at consultation for concerns related to skin quality, texture, and tone, and for scalp and hair concerns. Suitability is individually assessed.

What to expect

The appointment process is similar to PRP. A blood draw is performed, the sample is processed, and the prepared PRF is administered via injection into the treatment area. The appointment typically takes 45 to 60 minutes. Some discomfort during injection is normal. Topical anaesthetic is available and can be discussed at consultation.

How many treatments

A series of treatments is typically recommended. The number and frequency are discussed and planned individually at consultation. Maintenance treatments are generally recommended following the initial course.

Potential risks and side effects

As with all injectable treatments, PRF carries risks. These include but are not limited to:

• Redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection site

• Tenderness and discomfort

• Temporary skin irregularities

• Infection (rare)

• Allergic reaction (rare)

• No guarantee of a specific outcome
