PRP – Collagen Renewal Facial

A Plasma boost for your skin

The collagen facelift is lovingly given its name due to the technique of using the platelet rich plasma in the patient’s own blood to trigger collagen growth, cell renewal, lifting, toning and tightening the skin.

Through using the body’s own resources, the growth factors in the plasma are injected back into the skin to give full facial rejuvenation as they work to replace lost collagen and elastin and repair the cells both beneath and on the surface of the skin. This leaves the skin both radiant and volumised, restoring your youthful look.

This is a highly skilled technique and should only be carried out by a medical professional.

Common questions

Does it hurt?

This treatment is a full facial rejuvenation treatment. Some discomfort may be experienced as it involves a number of injections to the face which could feel a little sensitive. At VIVA Skin Clinics, we take patient comfort very seriously and will do all we can to ensure that any sensitivity is minimised. This may be through the use of numbing cream to help ease any discomfort.
Are there any side effects?

As the content of the injection is taken from your own blood supply, the side effects are minimal. These tend to be slight stinging, tenderness or bruising at the point of application, or in some cases (though rare) some temporary bleeding at the site of the injection.
What result can I expect?

This is an excellent treatment to achieve a subtle yet effective lifted and volumised facial rejuvenation. The collagen face lift is extremely popular given that it is both non invasive and can offer dramatic results. You can expect the surface of your skin to appear replenished, hydrated and smoothed as well as volumised. The lifting effect from the collagen facial will give you a plump and tightened appearance, ironing out fine lines and wrinkles and helping you too look and feel radiant.
Is it safe?

This treatment should only be administered by a medical professional. The PRP itself contains platelets from your own blood supply. Therefore, no foreign substances are being injected into your body which means the risks associated with this treatment are very low. It is considered to be one of the safest facial rejuvenation techniques.

I have been coming to Viva Skin for just over a year and see Dr Rupert. I am always made to feel so welcomed from when I first step through the door to when I leave my appointment with the most relaxing vibe. Dr Rupert is incredibly knowledgable and understanding and will always listen and is always there for you if you need anything before or after my treatment. I have had to phone a few times to rearrange my booking and the team at the other end of the phone make it so easy and effortless I can’t recommend Dr Rupert and the team enough. Thanks again!

Saskia

I had my lip filler injections with Dr Rupert Critchley. It was my first time so I was nervous about the end results. However the experience has been fantastic!I decided to do it because my lips seemed quite thin to me and I have a long philtrum.I really like that the doctor advised me against filler in both of my lips. He told me he thinks I would look nice with filler only in my upper lip as it would look more natural. He definitely was right 0 I love my new look because it is natural but it also has boosted my confidence.The recover was swift. It has been almost 2 weeks since my injection. Everything is fine and the swelling disappeared after less than a day. I am extremely pleased with the result and would highly recommend Dr Critchley!
