PRP Treatment Summary
Our patients return to us year after year for natural, balanced results. Every review reflects our commitment to precision, safety and a personalised approach to aesthetic care.
PRP also known as Dracula Therapy or Vampire Facial is a treatment which utilises our bodies own unique ‘self heal’ mechanism to repair and rejuvenate damaged skin and boost collagen. It can also be used to stimulate hair re-growth and has an 87% approval rating on Realself.
PRP is not a new treatment – platelet rich plasma injections have been around for decades, helping athletes to heal sports related injuries (they’re particularly helpful at healing tendon damage) but increasingly the benefits of this treatment are being used in aesthetic medicine.
PRP treatment is carried out by Dr Joney De Souza at his clinic in London. During this treatment small amounts of your own blood will be taken and processed in a centrifuge which will separate the red blood cells from the platelet rich plasma. The platelet rich plasma, which is a concentrated formula of your own platelets rich in growth factors, is then injected into the treatment area. These growth factors are needed to repair the body, but are also valuable tools to fight the signs of ageing.
“I had this treatment done because I wanted something completely natural, and since it used my own blood I knew that it would be. I was amazed at the results, especially on my décolletage which was very sun-damaged.”
PRP is an effective treatment for improving skin texture and repairing sun damage. Skin becomes luminescent, hydrated, nourished, and firmer and texture is improved.
You will be invited for a medical consultation to assess your suitability for this treatment.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a by-product of blood (plasma) that is rich in platelets.
Dr Joney De Souza will take a small amount of your blood and place this in a centrifuge to separate the red blood cells from the platelet rich plasma containing growth factors. The plasma is then re-injected into treatment area – it can be administered either in multiple micro-injections, like Mesotherapy or Dermal Hydrating Treatments, directly into lines and wrinkles, like a filler, or deeper into the dermis, like a volumiser.
The process should be no more painful than any other injectable procedure, but the treatment area might be numbed beforehand with a topical local anaesthetic cream. Some practitioners combine this with other ‘self-heal’ treatments, like Medical Micro-Needling to enhance the results.
There might be a small amount of redness or swelling at injection site, but this should fade quickly. You might also have some bruising where the blood was taken, but again this won’t last. One thing to avoid is taking aspirin or any anti-inflammatory drugs. This isn’t a one-off treatment – a course of treatments is usually recommended and it might take up to six months for the results of platelet rich plasma therapy to show, but the real benefit is that they should be permanent.
Improvement of skin texture and tone are noticeable within three weeks. Full collagen regeneration takes three months.
Every PRP treatment at Dr Joney De Souza Clinic begins with a comprehensive consultation. During this appointment, Dr Joney will take time to understand your goals, assess your skin condition and discuss the areas you would like to improve. He will explain how PRP works, what results you can expect, and whether combining it with treatments such as microneedling or LED may further enhance your outcome.
Once your personalised plan is agreed, a small sample of your blood is gently collected and placed into a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma. The skin is then cleansed, and a topical anaesthetic may be applied to ensure comfort. Using precise injection or microneedling techniques, Dr Joney introduces the concentrated growth factors back into the skin to stimulate repair, boost collagen and promote healthier, more radiant tissue. The procedure is safe, natural and minimally invasive, with little discomfort.
After your PRP treatment, you can usually return to your normal day straight away. Mild redness, swelling or sensitivity may occur, particularly if microneedling was used, but this typically settles within 24 to 48 hours. As the growth factors begin to work, the skin gradually becomes smoother, firmer and more revitalised.
Dr Joney will provide tailored aftercare advice, including avoiding strenuous exercise, heat treatments and active skincare products for the first 24 to 48 hours. Many patients choose to book a series of sessions for optimal results, with improvements continuing to develop over the following weeks as collagen production increases. With regular maintenance, PRP helps support long-term skin quality, leaving you with a fresher, naturally rejuvenated appearance.
