PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Therapy
PRP therapy, or Platelet-Rich Plasma, is a medical treatment that uses a component of a person’s blood to promote healing and regeneration. A small amount of the patient’s blood is drawn, typically from the arm, similar to a routine blood test. The blood is then processed in a centrifuge machine, which separates different components of the blood. The centrifuge separates the platelets from other blood components, creating a concentrated PRP solution. Platelets are small blood cells that play a crucial role in the body’s natural healing process. They contain growth factors and other proteins that contribute to tissue repair and regeneration.
The concentrated PRP is then applied or injected into the area of the body that requires treatment. PRP is commonly used in orthopedic, dermatological, and aesthetic procedures to enhance healing and tissue regeneration. However, in Alyssum Cosmetic, we only use this treatment for face and hair.
PRP for Skin Treatment
PRP therapy for face is a non-invasive, natural treatment for skin rejuvenation without the need for medications, chemicals, or surgery. PRP injections boost the skin’s collagen production, minimize pigmentation, and ease inflammation.
PRP-rich protein aids in skin rejuvenation by repairing damaged tissue and promoting the growth of new, healthy tissue.

Advantages: PRP for the face stimulates collagen production, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and promotes natural, long-lasting skin rejuvenation. It’s also a non-surgical, non-toxic, and minimally invasive procedure.
Disadvantages: Temporary redness, swelling, and bruising may occur, and results may vary depending on individual skin types and conditions.
Post-mesotherapy, it is recommended to consume a minimum of 64 ounces of water on the day of the procedure and to continue this hydration regimen for one-week post-treatment. Sun exposure should be avoided for 48 hours, and even after this period, ensure you apply sunscreen with SPF 25 or higher if you have to venture into the sun, particularly if bruising is still visible.
