Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections

PRP Injections - Natural Skin Rejuvenation and Hair Restoration
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is an advanced treatment that uses your body’s own natural healing factors to rejuvenate the skin and stimulate hair growth.
PRP has become increasingly popular in aesthetic medicine because it offers a natural approach to improving skin quality and treating hair thinning without surgery or synthetic products.
At MK Aesthetics, PRP treatments are performed by experienced medical professionals using high-quality equipment to ensure safe and effective results.
​
What is PRP?
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma, a concentrated component of your own blood that contains powerful growth factors and regenerative proteins.
These growth factors play an important role in:
• Tissue repair
• Collagen production
• Skin regeneration
• Hair follicle stimulation
By injecting PRP into specific areas, we can help stimulate the body’s natural repair and rejuvenation processes.
Because the treatment uses your own blood, the risk of allergic reactions is extremely low.
​
How the Treatment Works
PRP treatment is a straightforward procedure that usually takes around 30–45 minutes.
Step 1 – Blood Sample
A small amount of blood is taken from your arm, similar to a routine blood test.
Step 2 – Plasma Separation
The blood is placed in a medical centrifuge, which separates the platelet-rich plasma from other blood components.
Step 3 – Precise Injection
The PRP is carefully injected into the treatment area using very fine needles.
A numbing cream can be applied beforehand to make the treatment more comfortable.

PRP for Hair Loss (Men and Women)
PRP has become one of the most popular non-surgical treatments for hair thinning and hair loss.
It can help both men and women experiencing:
• Male pattern hair loss
• Female pattern hair thinning
• Early hair loss
• Reduced hair density
• Increased hair shedding
​
How PRP Helps Hair Growth
Hair follicles need the right environment to produce healthy hair. The growth factors in PRP help to:
• Stimulate weakened hair follicles
• Improve blood supply to the scalp
• Strengthen existing hair
• Encourage thicker, healthier hair growth
Patients often notice reduced hair shedding and improved hair thickness after a course of treatments.
PRP works best in early to moderate hair thinning, when the hair follicles are still active.
​
PRP for Skin Rejuvenation
​
PRP is also widely used to improve overall skin quality and stimulate natural collagen production.
When injected into the skin, PRP can help improve:
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Skin texture and tone
• Dull or tired skin
• Acne scarring
• Mild skin laxity
This treatment is sometimes referred to as the “Vampire Facial”, as it uses the regenerative properties of your own blood to rejuvenate the skin.
Results develop gradually as the skin produces new collagen.
​
Benefits of PRP Treatment
Many patients choose PRP because it offers several advantages:
• Natural treatment using your own blood
• Minimal downtime
• Suitable for both men and women
• Can improve skin quality and hair growth
• Very low risk of allergic reaction
• Can be combined with other aesthetic treatments
​
How Many Treatments Are Needed?
For the best results, most patients benefit from a course of 3 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart.
Maintenance sessions may be recommended every 6–12 months depending on the treatment area.
Hair restoration results typically develop over 3–6 months as the hair growth cycle improves.
​
Is PRP Safe?
PRP is considered a very safe treatment when performed by trained medical professionals.
Because the treatment uses your own blood, the risk of allergic reactions or rejection is extremely low.
Temporary side effects may include:
• Mild redness
• Swelling
• Tenderness at injection sites
These effects usually settle within a few days.
​
Am I Suitable for PRP?
​
PRP may be suitable if you are experiencing:
• Hair thinning or early hair loss
• Reduced hair density
• Fine lines or dull skin
• Acne scars
• Skin that has lost its natural glow
