PRP & Microneedling
Natural skin rejuvenation powered by your own biology
PRP and microneedling combine two regenerative techniques to support your skin’s natural ability to repair, renew and produce collagen.
Microneedling creates thousands of controlled micro-channels in the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing response. PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), prepared from a small sample of your own blood, contains concentrated platelets and naturally occurring growth factors that can support the repair and regeneration process.
Together, they offer a natural approach to improving skin texture, firmness, fine lines, acne scarring and overall skin quality.
What is PRP?
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma.
A small amount of your own blood is taken and processed to separate the platelet-rich plasma. Platelets contain growth factors and proteins that play an important role in the body’s natural healing and tissue-repair processes.
The prepared PRP is then applied to the skin during your microneedling treatment, allowing it to work alongside the controlled stimulation created by the microneedling process.
Because PRP is derived from your own blood, it is a naturally sourced treatment.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses very fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries within the skin.
These tiny channels stimulate the body’s natural repair response and encourage the production of collagen and elastin.
Over time, this can help the skin become smoother, firmer and more refined.
Microneedling can be used on a variety of areas, including:
- Face
- Neck
- Décolletage
- Hands
- Acne scars
- Certain other scars
- Stretch marks
- Selected areas of the body
Why Combine PRP with Microneedling?
Microneedling and PRP complement each other.
Microneedling stimulates the skin. PRP provides concentrated platelets and growth factors to support the regenerative process.
The combination is designed to encourage natural skin renewal rather than simply providing a temporary cosmetic effect.
Potential benefits include:
- Stimulating collagen and elastin production
- Improving skin texture and smoothness
- Reducing the appearance of fine lines
- Improving the appearance of acne scarring
- Supporting firmer, more resilient-looking skin
- Improving overall skin quality
- Promoting a fresher, healthier-looking complexion
- Supporting natural skin regeneration
Results develop progressively as your skin undergoes its natural repair and collagen-remodelling processes.
PRP & Microneedling for the Face
The face is one of the most popular areas for combined PRP and microneedling treatment.
It can be used to target concerns such as:
Fine lines
Encouraging collagen production can help improve the appearance of fine lines and early signs of ageing.
Acne scarring
Microneedling can help remodel the appearance and texture of certain acne scars, while PRP provides additional regenerative support.
Uneven texture
The treatment can help refine rough or uneven-looking skin.
Loss of firmness
Stimulating collagen and elastin may help the skin appear firmer and more resilient.
Dull or tired-looking skin
Treatment can support overall skin quality, helping the complexion appear fresher and more radiant.
PRP & Microneedling for Hair
PRP can also be incorporated into a treatment programme for certain types of hair thinning and hair loss.
PRP is injected into the scalp to deliver concentrated platelets and growth factors around the hair follicles. Microneedling may also be used as part of a scalp treatment protocol to stimulate the local healing response.
The aim is to support the health of existing hair follicles and improve the appearance of hair density and thickness.
Potential benefits include:
- Supporting existing hair follicles
- Improving the appearance of hair density
- Supporting thicker-looking hair
- Promoting a healthier scalp environment
- Providing a non-surgical approach to certain types of hair thinning
PRP is not suitable for every type of hair loss, and results vary depending on the underlying cause and individual circumstances.
PRP & Microneedling for the Body
The combination can also be used on selected areas of the body where improving skin texture and supporting collagen production may be beneficial.
Treatment may be considered for:
- Stretch marks
- Certain scars
- Uneven skin texture
- Hands
- Neck and décolletage
- Other suitable areas identified during consultation
What Can I Expect During Treatment?
Step 1 — Consultation
We begin by discussing your concerns, medical history and desired results. Your skin or scalp is assessed and a personalised treatment plan is created.
Step 2 — Blood collection
For PRP, a small amount of blood is taken from your arm.
Step 3 — PRP preparation
Your blood is placed into a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma.
Step 4 — Microneedling
The skin is cleansed and prepared before the microneedling device is carefully passed over the treatment area. The fine needles create controlled micro-channels within the skin.
Step 5 — PRP application
The prepared PRP is applied to the treated area as part of the regenerative treatment protocol.
Step 6 — Natural regeneration
Following treatment, your body’s natural repair processes begin. Collagen production and skin remodelling take place gradually over the following weeks and months.
Is the Treatment Painful?
A topical numbing cream may be applied before microneedling to make the treatment more comfortable.
You may experience some warmth, tingling or mild discomfort during the procedure. Temporary redness, sensitivity, swelling or minor bruising can occur afterwards.
Your practitioner will explain what to expect and provide personalised aftercare advice.
When Will I See Results?
PRP and microneedling are gradual regenerative treatments, so results do not appear overnight.
Your skin begins its healing response following treatment, while new collagen formation and remodelling take place over time.
You may notice improvements in skin texture and overall appearance as the process develops, with results continuing to evolve over the following weeks and months.
For hair treatments, results generally take longer to become visible because hair growth is naturally slow.
A course of treatments may be recommended depending on your individual concerns and goals.
Is PRP & Microneedling Right for Me?
PRP and microneedling can be an excellent option if you’re looking for a natural, regenerative approach to improving skin quality.
However, the treatment isn’t suitable for everyone. A consultation is essential to assess your individual circumstances and determine whether PRP, microneedling or the combination is appropriate for you.
We will discuss your expectations, the potential benefits and any possible risks before treatment.
