Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) Treatments

At Gesund, we are committed to providing safe, effective, and personalized PRP treatments to help you achieve your aesthetic and wellness goals.

What Is a Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, also known as the “Vampire Facial,” is a cutting-edge regenerative treatment that harnesses the healing power of your blood. By concentrating the platelets found in your blood, we create a potent solution rich in growth factors that stimulates natural tissue repair and rejuvenation.

Steps of PRP Treatment?

Blood Draw: A small sample of your blood is drawn, similar to a routine blood test.
Centrifugation: The blood sample is placed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other blood components.
Activation: The concentrated PRP is activated, further enhancing its growth factor content.
Application: The activated PRP is then strategically injected or applied topically to the treatment area, depending on your specific needs and goals.

The procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes.
A topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort.
The PRP is then carefully injected or applied to the targeted area.
You may experience mild redness or swelling, which usually subsides within a few hours.

Benefits of PRP Treatment?

Skin Rejuvenation: PRP stimulates collagen and elastin production, improving skin tone, texture, and elasticity. It can reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
Hair Restoration: PRP can promote hair growth by stimulating dormant hair follicles and improving blood circulation to the scalp.
Joint Pain Relief: PRP injections can reduce inflammation and pain in joints affected by osteoarthritis or sports injuries.
Natural Results: PRP utilizes your body’s healing mechanisms, providing natural-looking results without the use of synthetic fillers or chemicals.

Why Choose PRP Over Other Treatments?

Natural & Safe: PRP is derived from your blood, minimizing the risk of allergic reactions or complications.
Long-Lasting Results: PRP stimulates natural tissue regeneration, providing long-lasting results compared to some temporary fillers or injectables.
Minimal Downtime: Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure.
Versatile: PRP can be used to address a variety of concerns, from skin rejuvenation and hair restoration to joint pain relief.

FAQs

Benefits of Combining PRP with Microneedling

Enhanced Results: Microneedling creates microchannels in the skin, allowing for deeper penetration of the PRP and maximizing its regenerative effects.
Collagen Boost: The combination of microneedling and PRP stimulates even greater collagen production, resulting in firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
Reduced Scarring: Microneedling can help break down scar tissue, while PRP promotes healing and tissue remodelling, leading to improved scar appearance.
