Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy uses a concentrated portion of your own blood, rich in platelets and growth factors, to stimulate natural healing and regeneration. At DermLab, PRP is used for:
• Skin rejuvenation
• Adjunct to laser resurfacing and scar treatments
• Hair loss and thinning
Because it comes from your own body, PRP is natural, safe, and well tolerated.
Speeds up healing
Reduces downtime and redness
Boosts collagen response
Improves scar and texture outcomes
This makes it a popular add-on for acne scarring, surgical scars, and laser rejuvenation.
PRP as an Adjunct to Laser & Scar Treatments
How It Works
Consultation – Your Dermatologist or Nurse Injector discusses goals and suitability
Blood collection – A small sample of your blood is drawn
Processing – The blood is spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma
Application – PRP is injected or applied into the skin/scalp, depending on the indication
Results – Collagen, healing, and regrowth are stimulated over the following weeks
PRP for Skin Rejuvenation

Often combined with microneedling for enhanced results
PRP for Hair Loss

Alopecia areata (in selected cases, with Dermatologist guidance)

Increases blood supply to hair roots
Improves hair thickness and quality over time

Treatment time – 30–45 minutes
