PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Therapy at A1 Doctors Surgery

Rejuvenate, Regenerate, Revitalise – With PRP Therapy

At A1 Doctors Surgery, we offer cutting-edge PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) therapy, a natural and effective treatment for rejuvenating your skin, promoting hair growth, and accelerating healing in various parts of the body. PRP therapy harnesses the healing power of your own blood to stimulate cell regeneration, collagen production, and tissue repair, providing a holistic approach to aesthetics and wellness..

What is PRP Therapy?

PRP therapy involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and then injecting the enriched plasma back into targeted areas of your body. Platelets are rich in growth factors, which are essential for healing damaged tissues and promoting new cell growth.

How PRP Works:

  1. Blood Collection: A small sample of your blood is drawn.
  2. Processing: The blood is placed in a centrifuge to separate the platelets from the other components.

Injection: The concentrated platelet-rich plasma is injected into the treatment area to stimulate healing and rejuvenationt

PRP Treatment Areas

PRP therapy is versatile and can be used to treat a variety of conditions and aesthetic concerns. At A1 Doctors Surgery, we offer PRP treatments for the following areas:

Face (Aesthetic Rejuvenation)

Revitalize your skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars with PRP facial rejuvenation. This treatment promotes collagen production, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.

Benefits:

  • Improved skin texture and tone
  • Reduction of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Enhanced skin hydration and elasticity

Neck (Aesthetic Rejuvenation)

Combat signs of aging on the neck with PRP therapy. This treatment helps tighten and rejuvenate the delicate skin of the neck, reducing sagging and improving overall appearance.

Benefits:

  • Firmer and smoother neck skin
  • Reduced appearance of wrinkles and crepiness
  • Long-lasting rejuvenation

Hair Loss (Scalp Treatment)

PRP is an effective treatment for hair loss, particularly in individuals experiencing thinning hair or early-stage baldness. The growth factors in PRP stimulate dormant hair follicles, promoting natural hair growth and thickening.

Benefits:

  • Stimulates new hair growth
  • Strengthens existing hair follicles
  • Increases hair density and thickness

Joint Pain (Shoulder, Knee, Ankle)

PRP therapy can also be used to treat joint pain and injuries by promoting tissue repair and reducing inflammation. It’s commonly used for conditions such as arthritis, tendinitis, and sports injuries.

Benefits:

  • Accelerated healing of injured tissues
  • Reduction in joint pain and inflammation
  • Improved joint function and mobility

WHAT IS INVOLVED?
Blood is drawn from a vein in the arm. A separation procedure extracts and concentrates your blood to produce PRP – platelet rich plasma. The PRP is injected into the affected region under ultrasound guidance. The active substance is derived from your own body and is therefore well-tolerated.

RISKS AND POSSIBLE PROBLEMS:
Although uncommon, the risks include signs or symptoms associated with any regular injection including pain, temporary numbness or weakness from local anesthetic for several days, infection, no relief or worsening of symptoms, blood clot, nerve injury, skin discoloration, calcification, scarring, loss of fat to the affected area, and allergic reaction.

After treatment if you experience any of the above side effects, please contact A1 Doctors Surgery.

POST INJECTION CARE

  1. Rest and Activity: Engage in gentle activity and rest for the first 48 hours after your PRP injection. Gradually resume normal activities and start any recommended rehabilitation exercises following this period.
  2. Pain Management: A moderate amount of pain is expected between 2–5 days after the procedure, and in some cases, it could last a few weeks. Use simple pain relief like paracetamol during this time. Consult with your treating pain specialist for specific medication guidance.
  3. Transportation: Arrange for someone to drive you home after the procedure.
  4. RICE Therapy: Apply RICE principles—Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation—to the affected area as needed to help manage pain and swelling.
  5. Expect Gradual Improvement: The effects of PRP injections develop gradually. Over the course of a few months, you should notice slow and steady improvement.

If you have any concerns or need further guidance, contact A1 Doctors Surgery.
