Autologous platelet preparation
PRP Skin Rejuvenation in Rawalpindi
Platelet-rich plasma is prepared from a patient’s own blood and then injected or applied with another procedure. Evidence suggests potential benefit for selected indications, but preparation systems and study results vary and it should not be marketed as a guaranteed regeneration treatment.
Treatment explained
What is PRP Skin Rejuvenation?
A blood sample is centrifuged to concentrate platelets in plasma. The preparation may be injected into selected tissue or used with microneedling. PRP is different from stem cells, exosomes and unregulated “growth factor” products.

PRP Skin Rejuvenation FAQs
Is PRP the same as stem-cell treatment?
No. PRP concentrates platelets from blood; it is not a stem-cell or exosome product.
Does PRP remove acne scars?
PRP may support selected combination plans but does not erase scars on its own.
How many sessions are needed?
Protocols vary and a course may be discussed. The number depends on indication and response.
Can I be allergic to PRP?
Because it is autologous, allergy to the plasma itself is less likely, but additives, antiseptics or anaesthetics can still cause reactions.
Is a vampire facial safe?
Safety depends on sterile blood handling, device use and clinical assessment; the marketing name does not establish safety.
When will results appear?
Any change is gradual over weeks to months and may be subtle.
Who should avoid PRP?
Patients with active infection, certain blood or platelet disorders, severe anaemia or other unsafe circumstances may not be suitable.
Can PRP replace filler?
No. Filler provides immediate selected volume; PRP does not provide the same predictable structural augmentation.
