Description
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), commonly known as the Vampire Facial, is a regenerative skin treatment that uses your body’s own natural growth factors to stimulate collagen production and support skin repair.
At AesthetiCare Clinic in Moorgate, Central London, PRP treatments are performed in a doctor-led clinical environment, focusing on subtle, natural skin rejuvenation.
The treatment involves taking a small sample of your blood, which is then processed in a medical centrifuge to isolate platelet-rich plasma. This plasma contains growth factors that help stimulate tissue repair, collagen production, and improved skin regeneration.
When carefully applied to the skin, PRP helps improve skin texture, hydration, elasticity, and overall skin quality, making it a popular treatment for patients seeking natural skin rejuvenation.
Because PRP uses your own biological material, it is considered a natural regenerative treatment with minimal risk of allergic reactions.
What Can PRP Treat?
PRP facial treatments can help improve a range of skin concerns including:
• Fine lines and early wrinkles
• Dull or tired-looking skin
• Uneven skin texture
• Acne scarring
• Skin laxity
• Under-eye skin quality
• Overall skin rejuvenation
By stimulating collagen production, PRP helps the skin become smoother, firmer, and more radiant over time.
How the PRP Vampire Facial Works
The PRP facial involves several steps:
-
A small blood sample is taken.
-
The sample is processed in a centrifuge to separate platelet-rich plasma.
-
The PRP is applied to the skin using microinjections or microneedling techniques.
The platelets release growth factors, which stimulate the skin’s natural healing and regeneration processes.
Over the following weeks, this leads to improved collagen production and healthier skin structure.
