Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a treatment that uses your own blood plasma – concentrated with platelets and their natural growth factors – to support skin repair, boost collagen, and improve texture and tone. Because PRP is autologous (from you, for you), it is drug-free, biocompatible, and typically well tolerated with minimal downtime.
At Omniya Clinic in London, PRP is performed by trained practitioners using medical-grade protocols and devices. We tailor each course to your goals – brighter, smoother skin; improved under-eye quality; or support for hair density on the scalp.
PRP facial treatments start from £400.
A PRP facial – sometimes called a “vampire facial” – introduces your own concentrated platelets to the dermis via precise micro-injections and, where indicated, controlled microneedling to evenly distribute PRP. This combination enhances collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix support, addressing fine lines, uneven texture, enlarged pores, and early laxity. Under-eye skin quality (crepiness, dullness) can also improve in appropriately selected patients.
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) works by harnessing your body’s own healing potential. A small sample of your blood is processed to concentrate the platelets, which are then reintroduced into the skin. These platelets release powerful growth factors (e.g. PDGF, TGF-β, and VEGF) that act as messengers to stimulate surrounding cells.
This cascade of signals encourages fibroblasts to produce more collagen and elastin, remodels the skin’s support structure, and improves blood supply to the treated area. Over the following weeks, this process gradually enhances tone, texture, and firmness, leaving the skin looking healthier and more youthful.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a versatile regenerative treatment with a range of applications in aesthetic medicine:
By using your body’s own growth factors, PRP naturally stimulates repair and renewal, making it a safe and effective option for subtle, long-term rejuvenation.
PRP results develop gradually, as the treatment works by stimulating your skin’s own repair processes:
It’s important to note that PRP is a skin-quality treatment. It will not replace lost volume or alter facial contours. For patients seeking structural reshaping, PRP can be combined with dermal fillers or other complementary treatments as part of a tailored plan.
PRP can be used in multiple areas because it works with your body’s own natural healing mechanisms. By reintroducing concentrated platelets and growth factors into targeted tissues, it stimulates repair, regeneration, and improved function.
This versatility makes PRP a valuable option for patients seeking natural regeneration in both skin and hair.
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is valued for its ability to rejuvenate the skin and support natural repair using your body’s own healing factors. Because it works at a cellular level, it’s both safe and versatile — suitable even for delicate or hard-to-treat areas.
PRP can help with:
The result is gradual, natural-looking improvement in both skin quality and overall appearance, without adding artificial volume or altering facial structure.
varies per patient
Scalp PRP places platelet-derived growth factors around follicles to promote a pro-growth environment by improving microcirculation and signalling to perifollicular cells. It can support reduced shedding and improved hair calibre/density in appropriately selected patients (e.g., early androgenetic hair loss; post-partum shedding when clinically appropriate).
Plan: 3-4 sessions at 4-6-week intervals, followed by maintenance every 6-12 months. Best outcomes are seen when combined with evidence-based haircare or medical therapy.
In selected candidates, peri-orbital PRP can improve dermal thickness, crepiness, and overall skin quality. Where true hollowing, fat herniation, or fluid-dominant eye bags exist, we may advise alternative or staged modalities (e.g., polynucleotides, energy-based devices, or tear-trough filler where appropriate).
Your clinician will map sequencing and intervals to minimise downtime and maximise synergy.
PRP is considered a safe treatment because it uses your own blood plasma, making allergic or hypersensitivity reactions extremely rare. All procedures are performed under strict aseptic conditions to minimise risks.
Your practitioner will provide tailored aftercare advice depending on the area treated, but more information on PRP pre and post care can be found here.
PRP is a by-product of blood (plasma), and is rich in platelets.
Your clinician will draw a small amount of your blood, separate the red blood cells from the platelet rich plasma containing growth factors, using a centrifuge. The plasma is then re-injected into treatment area, either like mesotherapy with multiple micro injections, or directly into areas, like a filler to combat lines and wrinkles.
It should be no more painful than other injectable treatments – but to help your comfort, a local (topical) anaesthetic can be applied to numb the area beforehand.
We can also combine the PRP treatment with medical microneedling, to enhance the results.
We have found platelet rich plasma to be an effective treatment for the skin – improving texture and helping to repair sun damage. Following your treatment, we expect your skin to be be more hydrated, nourished, firmer with improved texture.
No, it ought not to hurt, but it may tingle. We can apply topical anaesthetic cream if needed, which will numb the area.
Responses to PRP vary, but most people will require 2-4 sessions, spaced approximately 4-6 weeks apart. There is no limit to the number of treatments you can have. You practitioner will advise the number of treatments for your area and concern.
Improvement of skin texture and tone is noticeable within 3 weeks.
Full collagen regeneration takes up to 3 months.
Reduction in hair loss is noticeable within 8 weeks.
Complete hair re-growth is seen 3-6 months after the last treatment.
You may experience minimal swelling or redness for up to 24 hours.
Treatment results vary, however, in most patients the results last up to 24 months. Touch-up treatments (every 3-6 months) will maintain the results.
One of our qualified and experienced doctors or nurses perform PRP in our London Clinic.
Absolutely, if there has been an injury due to a sport you will find that together with home care PRP can help reduce and improve the long term appearance if any scarring or pigmentation.
You will be invited for an in-depth consultation to assess your skin, concerns and goals from the treatment. We only want you to have a treatment if you will benefit from the results, and so the initial consultation is imperative to ensure your satisfaction and suitability.
Yes, absolutely, we offer other treatments, including PRP in our London Clinic.

PRP is a very effective treatment for the area under your eyes and addresses concerns like deep circles, puffiness and undereye bags.
PRP is considered a natural treatment option because it uses the patient’s own biological material (blood) to stimulate healing and rejuvenation, without the addition of foreign substances.
At Omniya, we utilise advanced PRP processing techniques and customised treatment plans, ensuring the highest concentration of growth factors and a tailored approach to meet each patient’s specific needs and goals.
During your consultation, we will advise you on the best treatments and products to use at home.
