TREATMENT OVERVIEW

Overview
FAQs
Is PRP Treatment Safe?

Yes, PRP treatment is considered safe.

Bella Vou takes infection control very seriously. The consultants use sterile, one-use needles and containers for all procedures. PRP is derived from your blood, so it is not from a donor source, so there is no opportunity for contamination, allergic reactions or infections.

What Conditions can PRP Treat?

PRP treatment is commonly used for:

  • Skin Rejuvenation: Reducing fine lines, wrinkles, and scars.
  • Hair Restoration: Stimulating hair growth and thickness.
  • Joint Injuries: Assisting in healing joint injuries.
  • Soft Tissue Injuries: Promoting healing of soft tissue injuries.
  • Scar Improvement: Minimizing the appearance of scars.
How Many PRP Sessions Will I Need?

The number of PRP sessions you'll need depends on your specific treatment goals and the area being treated. Typically, a series of treatments spaced a few weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. Your treatment plan will be discussed during your free consultation with one of our medically trained specialists. 

When Will I See Results from PRP Treatment?

Results from PRP treatment vary from person to person, but many patients begin to notice improvements within a few weeks to a few months after treatment. Results continue to develop over time.

What is the difference between PRP & PRF Treatment?

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) are two different treatments designed to enhance skin appearance by harnessing the patient's own blood components.

PRP involves injecting concentrated platelets into the skin, containing growth factors that stimulate collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture and reducing scars and stretch marks. PRF is similar to PRP but has a higher platelet concentration and more potent growth factor release. It also includes fibrin, supporting tissue repair and regeneration. PRP is created by concentrating platelets into a serum, while PRF involves a fibrin matrix to create a more stable injectable product.

Benefits vary: PRP mainly improves skin texture, tone, and reduces fine lines, while PRF promotes overall skin health and collagen production.

Duration differs too, with PRP effects being shorter-lived compared to PRF.

In summary, both PRP and PRF injections offer effective ways to enhance skin health, including around the eyes. While they share similarities, there are distinct differences, which the Medical Specialists at Bella Vou can discuss before your treatment. They will provide personalised advice, helping you understand the benefits and potential risks of each treatment as well as tailoring a plan to suit your needs.

YOUR SIMPLE 4 STEP JOURNEY

1

Step 1. Free, no-obligation consultation

Bella Vou offers every client a free consultation with an expert. The consultation is an opportunity to discuss any concerns you have and the results you want to achieve.

Bella Vou provides a bespoke and holistic rejuvenation service. The specialists will carefully examine your face, checking skin elasticity, volume loss, sagging, and lines or wrinkles. In careful consultation with you, they will tailor a treatment programme to achieve your goals. Bella Vou will always give you an honest and impartial professional opinion.

Step 2. Preparation for PRP Treatment

You will be asked to stop taking some medicines such as aspirin and ibuprofen to prevent bruising and bleeding before your treatment.

Due to the nature of the therapy, people with bleeding problems, liver disease, platelet deficiency, or using anticoagulant medication are not suitable for PRP therapy. If you have any concerns, the staff at Bella Vou are always on hand to answer your questions and offer support.

3

Step 3. What to expect on the day of Treatment?

PRP is carried out as an outpatient procedure. Before treatment, the skin specialist will apply a topical anaesthetic cream to numb the skin and ensure your comfort.

The specialist will take a 10-20ml sample of your blood. This is processed and treated so that the plasma and platelets are extracted and concentrated. The consultant will then reintroduce the platelet-rich plasma into the skin in a series of microinjections or in addition to other treatments such as Morpheus 8 or micro-needling.

The whole procedure usually takes around one hour. The skin rejuvenation is progressive. It can take several weeks for the full results of therapy to become apparent. The specialist may recommend a course of three treatments for improved outcomes that can last up to eighteen months.

Step 4. How long is recovery from PRP Treatment?

After the procedure, most people can go home and get on with normal activities. However, the staff at Bella Vou are always on hand to offer you refreshments and answer any questions.

There is minimal downtime. You will be able to get on with your usual activities. Side effects are uncommon, but you may notice some bruising, swelling, and some inflammation at the treated sites.

Applying cold compresses and sleeping on two pillows can prevent swelling and bruising. It’s also important not to touch the face or apply make-up for at least six hours to prevent any post-procedure infections.
