What Is PRP?

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a plasma fluid rich in growth factors obtained from the patient’s own blood. This treatment is applied to support tissue regeneration, cellular repair, and rejuvenation. After the blood is drawn, it is processed by centrifugation with a special device, and the platelets are concentrated and injected into the skin or scalp.

How Is PRP Applied?

The procedure begins with drawing a small amount of blood. The blood is centrifuged in a special device and the platelet-rich plasma is separated. This rich fluid is applied to the skin using tiny needles or micro-injection techniques. PRP is commonly used on areas such as the face, neck, décolleté, hands, and scalp.

What Is PRP Used For?

  • Skin rejuvenation: softening wrinkles, improving elasticity, and restoring glow.
  • Hair loss treatment: especially for androgenetic hair loss, to strengthen follicles and slow shedding.
  • Spot treatment: helps reduce sunspots and age spots.
  • Acne and scar treatment: supports reduction of acne scars.
  • Skin renewal: used for repairing tissues such as surgical or injury scars.

What Are the Advantages of PRP?

  • Minimal allergy risk because it uses the patient’s own blood.
  • A natural, biological treatment.
  • Short recovery time; you can return to daily life immediately.
  • Improves skin quality over time; while not permanent, results can last with regular sessions.
  • Effects can be enhanced when combined with other treatments (mesotherapy, microneedling/dermapen, laser, etc.).

Who Is PRP Suitable For?

  • Those with dull or tired-looking skin.
  • Individuals with reduced skin elasticity.
  • People with wrinkles on the face, neck, or hands.
  • Those experiencing hair loss.
  • Individuals wishing to reduce post-surgical scars.

  • Cancer patients.
  • People with blood-clotting disorders.
  • Individuals with autoimmune diseases.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women (not performed as a precaution).
  • Those with active infections.

How Long Does a PRP Session Take?

The total procedure takes about 30–45 minutes, including blood draw, centrifugation, and injection.

How Many PRP Sessions Are Needed?

Sessions are typically performed every 3–4 weeks for a total of 3–6 sessions. The number varies based on age, skin type, and needs. Maintenance once or twice a year is recommended.

What Should Be Considered After PRP?

  • No makeup should be applied for the first 24 hours.
  • Avoid rubbing the face and avoid intense sun exposure.
  • Drink plenty of water to support the renewal process.
  • Mild redness and sensitivity may occur for a few days; this is temporary.

Is PRP a Permanent Treatment?

PRP is not permanent, but its effects are long-lasting. With regular sessions, rejuvenation of the skin and revitalization of hair follicles can be maintained. Full permanence should not be expected; supportive sessions are important.
