Skin — Broadway Retreat
Platelet-Rich Plasma
Platelet-rich plasma uses your body's own healing system: your platelets, separated and re-introduced where skin is ageing or hair is thinning.
The Treatment
What it is, and why it helps.
Platelets are the blood cells that manage healing. Platelet-rich plasma treatment concentrates your own platelets and re-introduces them into ageing skin through micro-injections — you may have heard it called the vampire facial.
The platelets release growth factors that call your skin's collagen-producing cells into action. The new collagen plumps and smooths from within: softer wrinkles, better texture, and a healthier tone across the face, neck, jawline, chest, hands — even the knees.
PRP also treats thinning hair. The same growth factors stimulate struggling hair follicles, encouraging fuller, thicker growth — a natural, needle-fine treatment for male and female pattern hair loss, alopecia and hormonal thinning.
What it treats
- Dull skin
- Dark circles and under-eye puffiness
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sagging facial skin
- Thinning hair and pattern hair loss
- Alopecia
Your Appointment
What happens, step by step.
A small sample of your blood is taken, and the platelet-rich plasma is separated from it.
The plasma is re-introduced through micro-injections into the skin — or the scalp, for hair treatments.
The growth factors get to work below the surface; results build as new collagen forms or follicles strengthen.
Good to Know
Your questions, answered.
Is it really my own blood?
Yes — that's the point. Your own platelets carry the growth factors, so the treatment works with your body's natural healing.
Does it work for hair loss?
PRP is an established treatment for male and female pattern hair loss, alopecia and hormonal thinning — the growth factors stimulate struggling follicles towards fuller, thicker growth.
Where can it be used?
The face, neck, jawline, chest and décolleté, hands and arms, knees — and the scalp for hair treatments.
