What is PRP?

PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma , or blood plasma that is rich in platelets. During a PRP treatment, a small amount of your own blood is taken, centrifuged to separate the plasma, and then injected back into your skin.

This plasma contains a high concentration of growth factors that stimulate the skin's natural recovery process. That's why this method is also called the 'vampire facial' - made famous by celebrities such as Kim Kardashian.

How does a PRP treatment work?

The treatment consists of four steps:

  1. Blood will be taken from your arm.
  2. The blood is placed in a centrifuge to separate the plasma from the red blood cells.
  3. The PRP is then injected into your skin with small injections or via microneedling.
  4. The growth factors activate cell renewal, making the skin firmer, smoother and more even.

What are the benefits of PRP?

  • Stimulates collagen production
  • Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
  • Improves skin structure and elasticity
  • Reduces dark circles under the eyes
  • Helps with scars and pigment spots
  • 100% natural – no chemicals
  • Short recovery time (often within 1-2 days)

Extra boost: LED light therapy after PRP

A popular and effective combination is to use an LED light therapy mask after a PRP treatment. Red LED light in particular stimulates the production of collagen and accelerates the skin's recovery process. This ensures that the effects of PRP are even better and faster visible.

Many specialists combine PRP and LED light in one session, with the mask placed on the face for 10-20 minutes after the injections. The result: firmer, smoother and visibly more radiant skin.

Who is PRP suitable for?

PRP is suitable for almost everyone who wants to improve their skin in a natural way. Especially people with early skin aging, a dull complexion, fine lines or superficial scars benefit from PRP.

How many treatments are needed?

In most cases, a course of three treatments is advised with 4 to 6 weeks in between. After that, you can do a maintenance treatment annually to maintain the result.

Are there any risks or side effects?

Because PRP is extracted from your own blood, the chance of allergies or complications is minimal. Possible side effects include redness, mild swelling or bruising, but these usually disappear within 1 to 2 days.

Is PRP worth it?

Absolutely. PRP is a safe, natural and effective method for skin rejuvenation. By combining it with LED light therapy you can further enhance the result. For those looking for a glow from within, without aggressive agents, PRP is an excellent choice.
