Understanding PRP
Your own plasma.
A considered approach.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is prepared from a small sample of your blood. A centrifuge separates the sample to produce plasma containing a concentration of platelets.
Platelets contain growth factors involved in the body’s repair processes. In aesthetics, PRP is used in treatments aimed at improving aspects of skin quality.
Research into cosmetic PRP is still developing. Benefits are not guaranteed; your assessment helps determine whether it is appropriate.

Before you decide
Results, recovery
& treatment costs
Ask what improvement is realistic for your skin, how much recovery time to plan for and what your treatment will cost.
Using your own blood does not make PRP risk-free. Infection and other complications are possible. Your practitioner will discuss the risks relevant to you.
Changes, if they occur, develop over time. Response varies, and more than one session may be discussed.
Redness, tenderness, swelling or bruising can occur. Recovery and aftercare depend on the procedure.
PRP is not suitable for everyone. Your health history and medications need to be reviewed before treatment.
Ask for a personalized quote that explains the proposed treatment, follow-up and any additional costs.
PRP treatment FAQs
Your questions,
answered.
For advice specific to your skin and health history, speak with the Beauty MD team.
Is PRP the same as a filler?
No. PRP is prepared from your own blood. Dermal fillers are separate products, commonly based on hyaluronic acid, used to add volume. Your practitioner can explain the difference and whether either is appropriate.
How many sessions will I need?
There is no single schedule that suits everyone. The number and spacing of appointments depend on the procedure, your response and your practitioner’s assessment.
Will I need time to recover?
Plan for the possibility of temporary redness, tenderness, swelling or bruising. Ask your practitioner about work, exercise, skin care and when to resume your usual routine.
Is PRP right for my skin?
That requires a clinical assessment. Your practitioner should review your goals, skin, health history and medications, and discuss alternatives before you decide.
What will my treatment cost?
Contact Beauty MD for current pricing. Your quote should specify the treatment proposed and whether any follow-up or additional procedures are included.
