What it is, in plain English.
PRP means platelet-rich plasma. A small sample of your blood is taken during your appointment and processed in a centrifuge to prepare platelet-rich plasma. At Visage, PRP is considered for selected facial and under-eye skin concerns. Your clinician checks suitability, the area to treat and whether the right approach is injections, microneedling, or no treatment. PRP is not dermal filler and it does not create instant volume or change the shape of your face. It is also different from PRF (platelet-rich fibrin): the patient-facing treatment offered here is PRP. Research into aesthetic PRP is still developing, so we will be honest about what it may and may not be able to do for your particular concern.
Why clients choose it.
- Uses platelet-rich plasma prepared from a small sample of your own blood.
- Can be considered for selected facial and under-eye skin concerns after a suitability check.
- May be used with injections, microneedling, or a combination, depending on your plan.
- Does not add filler or change the shape of your face.
- Keeps the treatment tailored to the concern, rather than treating every concern in the same way.

Suitable candidates
- Adults seeking nurse-led PRP for selected facial or under-eye skin concerns.
- People who understand that suitability, technique, and treatment plan are individual.
- Clients comfortable with a blood draw as part of the treatment process.
- Anyone looking for an alternative to a volume-adding treatment, where appropriate.
Not suitable if
- Anyone whose medical history or current health means treatment should be postponed.
- People with a current health, medication, or skin concern that means treatment should be delayed or declined.
- Anyone seeking a guaranteed or immediate cosmetic change.
- Anyone for whom a different treatment, or no treatment, is the safer recommendation.
Before, during, and after.
We start by reviewing your medical history and the concern you want to address. I will explain the proposed approach, likely downtime, possible side effects, and aftercare before treatment begins.
A small blood sample is taken and prepared in a centrifuge. Depending on your individual plan, the prepared plasma may be used with injections, microneedling, or both. You can ask questions at every stage.
You will receive treatment-specific aftercare and clear guidance on what to expect. Your review timing and any further appointments are agreed around your plan, rather than assumed in advance.
Why this isn’t a high-street treatment.

“PRP should start with a proper suitability check, not a promise. I will explain what it can realistically be considered for, what the treatment involves, and when another option is more suitable.”
