What is PRP?
PRP is concentrated platelet cells from your own blood. It involves taking your own blood, processing it, spinning it down to give platelet cells (clotting cells) and then reinjecting or applying back to your skin after it has been micro needled. The micro wounds left following needling allows the goodness of concentrated platelets & growth factors to enter your deeper layers of skin, stimulating collagen production.

Unfortunately, the commercialisation of PRP has made this procedure an ‘upsell’ for many clinics, almost to the point of associating microneedling with, you guess it ‘PRP.’

Peptides: In theory can improve dermal thickness & stimulate collagen production.

Vitamin K: Modulate blood flow, helping vascular cause of dark circles.

Retinol/Retinyl Aldehyde: Can act as an anti-oxidant as well as a powerful collagen enhancer.

Hyaluronic Acid: Is a hydrator with very little side effects.

Vitamin E: Also known as tocopherol is an antioxidant that is gentle on the skin.

Arbutin: Can reduce pigmentation.

Botanicals: Such as licorice root, bearberry, cranberry, & flavonoids are naturally occurring pigment correctors.
