Introduction: The Science Behind PRP Skin Rejuvenation
At The Glo Bar, Ruislip’s leading aesthetic clinic, we’re proud to offer PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy – one of the most advanced, natural solutions for skin rejuvenation. Often called the “Vampire Facial”, this revolutionary treatment harnesses your body’s own healing power to combat signs of aging, sun damage, and skin texture concerns.
In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore:
✔ How PRP works for facial rejuvenation
✔ The treatment process at our Ruislip clinic
✔ Who makes an ideal candidate
✔ Expected results and recovery
✔ Why The Glo Bar stands out for PRP treatments
What is PRP Skin Rejuvenation?
PRP therapy uses concentrated growth factors from your own blood to:
- Stimulate collagen production (up to 300% increase)
- Accelerate skin cell turnover
- Improve elasticity and firmness
- Reduce fine lines and wrinkles
- Minimize pores and acne scarring
Unlike synthetic fillers, PRP offers 100% natural rejuvenation with no risk of allergic reactions.
