Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) rejuvenation is a cutting-edge treatment option for those looking to improve the overall health and appearance of their skin. At Celebrity Medical Center in Sharjah, UAE, we specialize in providing PRP rejuvenation treatments that are safe, effective, and produce natural-looking results.
After creating platelet-rich plasma from a patient’s blood sample, that solution is injected into the target area, such as an injured knee or a tendon. In some cases, the clinician may use ultrasound to guide the injection. The idea is to increase the concentration of specific bioproteins or hormones, called growth factors, in a specific area to accelerate the healing process.
The mechanism behind PRP injections is not completely understood. Studies show that the increased concentration of growth factors in platelet-rich plasma may stimulate or speed up the healing process, shortening healing time for injuries, decreasing pain and even encouraging hair growth.
Benefits of PRP Rejuvenation
PRP Rejuvenation at Celebrity offers many benefits, including the following:
One of the key benefits of PRP rejuvenation is that it can be used on all skin types, and it’s safe for both men and women. The treatment is also customizable and can be tailored to the patient’s specific needs and goals.
Another benefit of PRP rejuvenation is that it can be combined with other treatments such as microneedling, laser resurfacing, and chemical peels to achieve optimal results.
How Does PRP Rejuvenation Treatment Work?
PRP rejuvenation treatment involves the use of a patient’s own blood, which is processed to separate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from the rest of the blood components. The PRP is then injected into the skin to stimulate collagen production and improve the overall health and appearance of the skin.
One of the key benefits of PRP rejuvenation is that it uses the patient’s own blood, which eliminates the risk of allergic reactions or complications. The treatment is also non-invasive, which means it has minimal downtime and recovery time.
PRP rejuvenation can be used to treat a variety of skin concerns such as fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven skin tone. The treatment can also be used to improve the overall health and appearance of the skin, resulting in a more youthful and radiant complexion.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is an injectable treatment by which a person’s own blood is used. Platelets are vital in the process of tissue healing, and the growth of new cells. PRP thereby promotes collagen production, regenerates the skin tissue, and essentially re-energizes your cells into rejuvenating themselves. The release of growth factors amphiphiles the healing process. PRP softens fine lines and wrinkles, tightens the skin, and improves skin tone and texture.
The treatment of PRP involves a fraction of blood, collected or ‘drawn up’ from the individual patient into a syringe. The collected blood is then spun down in a special centrifuge to separate its components. The platelet rich plasma is then reinjected, and/or micro-needled back into the skin.
Typically, a PRP treatment takes between an hour or two to complete. This depends on if the PRP is administered through injections only, and/or micro-needled into the skin. This timeframe includes an additional 30 minutes for the blood to be drawn and spun in the centrifuge, and topical numbing to be applied.
Be sure to shave the target area the morning of or the day before your treatment, leaving the hair no longer than 2 millimetres. Shaving removes the majority of hair but leaves a small portion in the follicle to absorb the laser energy. Cleanse your skin with soap and water, and do not use any lotion, deodorant or perfume on the area.
Some mild discomfort may be felt while the PRP is being reinjected. The sensation typically felt is a burning or tingling sensation. This sensation only lasts a few minutes after the PRP injected. We ensure our patients are comfortable throughout the entire PRP treatment and apply topical numbing cream and ice to aid any discomfort.
Generally, patients notice tightening and a more even tone to their skin in a week or two after PRP injections. These results continue to build for up to 6 months after treatment.
Results from PRP injections can be seen for many years after treatment; However, these results vary due to the individual’s natural variation in quality of Platelet Rich Plasma, as well as their lifestyle. While we cannot stop the aging process, we can slow it down. Results from PRP injections can be extended with proper at home skincare maintenance.
