Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is an advanced regenerative medicine treatment that uses the patient’s own blood components to stimulate tissue repair, revitalization, and rejuvenation.

The procedure involves drawing a small sample of blood, which is then centrifuged to isolate plasma rich in platelets and growth factors —the key elements that trigger cellular regeneration.

When injected into targeted areas of the face, neck, hands, or body, PRP enhances skin texture, tone, and firmness, while reducing wrinkles, scars, and signs of aging.

Because it uses the patient’s own plasma, PRP is a natural, safe, and biocompatible treatment with minimal risk of allergic reactions or rejection.

Benefits of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

Cellular regeneration: Promotes the creation of new cells and tissue repair.

How is the PRP Procedure Performed?

At Cliniq, the PRP treatment begins with drawing a small sample of blood from the patient.
The sample is placed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other blood components.

Once the PRP is prepared, the target area is cleansed and disinfected, and the specialist uses fine needles to inject the plasma precisely into the designated zones.
This allows the growth factors to act directly within the tissues, stimulating cell regeneration and collagen synthesis.

Each session lasts approximately 45 to 60 minutes, and patients can resume their normal activities immediately afterward.
Post-treatment care instructions are provided to ensure optimal, long-lasting results.

n a Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment, a topical anesthetic cream may be applied to ensure patient comfort. This cream is typically applied to the treatment areas 20 to 30 minutes before the injections to numb the skin and minimize any discomfort during the procedure. Due to the minimally invasive nature of PRP and the use of fine needles, topical anesthesia is usually sufficient to provide a comfortable experience.

Recovery after a Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment is quick and simple. Immediately following the procedure, it is common to experience mild redness, swelling, or small bruises at the injection sites, which typically resolve quickly.

It is recommended to avoid direct sun exposure, makeup, and irritating skincare products for the first 24 hours. Patients should also refrain from intense physical activity during this time. Most people can resume their normal activities immediately, and visible skin improvements begin to appear in the following weeks as collagen regenerates and the skin becomes revitalized.

The PRP treatment involves minimal downtime, allowing patients to return to their regular routines almost immediately. Mild and temporary side effects such as redness, swelling, or minor bruising may occur in the treated areas but usually disappear within a short period.

During this brief recovery phase, it is best to avoid sun exposure, makeup, irritating products, and vigorous exercise for the first 24 hours. Overall, PRP is a convenient and effective option for those seeking skin rejuvenation without significant interruption to their daily life.

Post-treatment care following a PRP procedure is essential to ensure proper healing and achieve the best results:

  • Avoid sun exposure: Protect the treated areas from direct sunlight for at least 24 hours, and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen if going outdoors.

  • Avoid irritating products: Do not apply makeup or skincare products containing retinoids, exfoliating acids, or harsh ingredients for at least 24 hours.

  • Keep the skin hydrated: Use gentle moisturizers or lotions recommended by your specialist to maintain skin hydration.

  • Avoid intense exercise: Refrain from vigorous activities that may cause excessive sweating during the first 24 hours.

  • Do not touch or scratch the treated areas: Avoid rubbing, scratching, or touching the skin to prevent irritation or infection.

  • Apply cold compresses if needed: Use cold packs to reduce redness or swelling, if necessary.

  • Follow medical instructions: Adhere to all specific post-care recommendations provided by your specialist and attend any follow-up appointments.

  • Monitor skin response: Contact your doctor if you notice any unusual or prolonged reactions such as persistent redness, pain, or swelling.
