Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment
Rediscover youthful skin and restore healthy hair with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatments.
At Bilba Clinic, we offer advanced PRP treatments to help rejuvenate your skin and combat hair loss. Whether you’re seeking to reduce the signs of aging, enhance skin texture, or restore thinning hair, our PRP therapy is a natural, non-surgical solution that harnesses your body’s own healing power.
What is PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy?
PRP therapy is a cutting-edge treatment that uses your body’s own blood to promote healing and rejuvenation. PRP is rich in growth factors and platelets that stimulate the repair of tissue, encourage collagen production, and promote cellular regeneration. By targeting specific areas such as the face, hands, neck, and scalp, PRP can help address a wide range of cosmetic concerns, from aging skin to hair thinning.
How does PRP work?
1. Blood draw: A small amount of your blood is drawn from your arm, similar to a routine blood test.
2. Processing: The blood is placed in a centrifuge, which separates the plasma from the red blood cells, concentrating the platelets and growth factors.
3. Injection: The PRP is then injected into the targeted treatment areas (face, neck, hands, or scalp), where it works to stimulate collagen and cell regeneration for rejuvenation and hair restoration. PRP is a natural, safe treatment with minimal risk, as it uses your own blood. There’s no need for synthetic chemicals or foreign substances, making it an ideal option for those looking for a more natural approach to skin and hair care.
PRP for skin rejuvenation (face, neck, hands)
As we age, our skin loses elasticity, collagen production decreases, and fine lines and wrinkles begin to appear. PRP therapy stimulates collagen and elastin production, helping to rejuvenate the skin and reduce the visible signs of aging.
Benefits of PRP for skin:
Reduces fine lines and wrinkles on the face, neck, and hands.
Improves skin texture and tone for a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Enhances skin elasticity and firmness.
Boosts skin hydration and overall radiance.
Helps with acne scars and sun damage by promoting tissue repair.
PRP for hair loss
PRP therapy for hair loss is a safe and effective treatment for both men and women who are experiencing thinning hair or pattern baldness. By stimulating hair follicles, PRP promotes hair growth and helps to restore a thicker, fuller head of hair.
Benefits of PRP for hair restoration:
Stimulates dormant hair follicles to promote new hair growth.
Improves hair thickness and volume in areas with thinning hair.
Reduces hair shedding and improves hair density.
Natural results with minimal side effects, as PRP uses your own blood.
Ideal for androgenetic alopecia (pattern baldness) and other causes of hair loss.
For optimal results, PRP for hair loss is typically performed in a series of treatments, with maintenance sessions every 36 months.
Post treatment care:
There is minimal downtime with PRP treatment, and most patients can return to normal activities immediately. After the procedure, you may experience slight redness, swelling, or bruising in the treated areas, but these effects typically subside within a few days. While some results can be seen after the first treatment, optimal results take time. For skin rejuvenation, most patients begin to notice smoother, firmer skin after 4-6 weeks, with continued improvement over the following months. For hair restoration, it typically takes 36 months to see noticeable hair growth.
Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Q: Is PRP therapy painful?
A: PRP therapy involves injections, which can cause mild discomfort. However, a numbing cream is applied beforehand to minimize any pain during the procedure.
Q: How many PRP sessions do I need?
A: For optimal skin rejuvenation, a series of 3-4 sessions spaced about 4-6 weeks apart is typically recommended. For hair restoration, 3-4 sessions are often required, followed by maintenance treatments every 4-6 months.
Q: Are there any side effects?
A: PRP is a safe treatment with minimal risk since it uses your own blood. Some temporary redness, swelling, or bruising may occur in the treated area, but these side effects usually resolve within a few days.
Q: How long will the results last?
A: The effects of PRP for skin rejuvenation can last up to 12 years, depending on your age, skin condition, and lifestyle. For hair restoration, results are typically long lasting, but maintenance sessions may be needed to sustain hair growth.
