What is PRP?
At Nue Aesthetics Timaru, we offer Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment, a revolutionary procedure that utilizes your body’s own healing properties to rejuvenate and enhance your skin. PRP involves extracting a small amount of your blood, separating the platelets, and then reintroducing them into targeted areas of the skin. This stimulates collagen production, improves skin texture, and reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and sun damage. With minimal downtime and natural-looking results, PRP treatment is a popular choice for those seeking a non-surgical approach to skin rejuvenation.
PRP treatment harnesses the healing properties of your own blood to rejuvenate and enhance your skin. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is extracted from a small sample of your blood, then reintroduced into targeted areas of the skin. The platelets release growth factors that stimulate collagen production, improving skin texture and reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and other imperfections.
PRP treatment can be used on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, décolletage, hands, and scalp. It is effective for improving skin texture, tone, and elasticity, as well as promoting hair growth in cases of thinning or alopecia.
Yes, PRP treatment is considered safe when performed by a trained and experienced practitioner. Since it utilizes your body’s own blood, there is minimal risk of allergic reactions or adverse effects. Our clinic adheres to strict safety protocols to ensure your comfort and well-being throughout the procedure.
The number of PRP treatment sessions needed varies depending on individual skin concerns and goals. Typically, a series of 3 to 4 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. You may start noticing improvements in skin texture and tone within a few weeks, with continued enhancement over the following months as collagen production is stimulated.
