How much does PRP hair treatment cost at The London PRP Clinic?

£545 per session for our comprehensive PRP hair treatment, which includes Viviscal™ Professional supplements and organic hair oils. Most patients need 3-4 initial sessions. ExoRevive treatment is £445 per session.

Is PRP better than a hair transplant?

PRP is better for early-stage hair loss (Norwood 1-4) as it's non-surgical with no downtime and costs £545 vs £3,000-15,000 for transplants. Hair transplants are better for advanced hair loss (Norwood 5-7) but require surgery and 2 weeks recovery. Many patients use PRP to enhance transplant results.

What's the difference between PRP and ExoRevive?

PRP uses your blood's platelets containing 5-7 growth factors. ExoRevive uses lab-derived exosomes with 1,000+ growth factors, often showing faster results (6-8 weeks vs 3-4 months). ExoRevive costs £445 per session vs £545 for PRP with supplements.

Microneedling in London: Advanced Skin Treatments

31 Aug

Written By Omar Elalfy

London's aesthetic clinics offer various microneedling options, from basic dermapen treatments to advanced radiofrequency devices. Understanding these options helps you select appropriate treatment for your concerns.

The Evolution of Microneedling

Microneedling has progressed significantly from early dermarollers. Modern automated devices provide consistent needle depth and reduced trauma. The latest generation combines microneedling with energy delivery - radiofrequency or LED - enhancing results.

London clinics often invest in premium devices. The SkinPen, first FDA-cleared microneedling device, offers validated safety and efficacy. Radiofrequency devices like Morpheus8 or Secret RF provide additional skin tightening through controlled thermal injury.

Treatment Customisation

Depth Protocols

Different concerns require different needle depths. Superficial treatment (0.5mm) enhances product absorption and provides mild rejuvenation. Medium depth (1-1.5mm) addresses fine lines and mild scarring. Deep treatment (2-2.5mm) targets severe scarring and deep wrinkles.

London practitioners often customise depth across facial zones. The forehead might receive shallow treatment while acne scars receive deeper penetration. This tailored approach maximises results while minimising unnecessary trauma.

Combination Protocols

Leading London clinics combine microneedling with complementary treatments. PRP application immediately post-treatment enhances healing and results. LED therapy reduces inflammation and stimulates additional collagen production. Vitamin infusions provide targeted nutrition during peak absorption.

Addressing Specific Concerns

Acne Scarring

London's diverse population means practitioners see varied scar types across different skin tones. This experience translates to nuanced treatment approaches. Darker skin requires modified protocols to prevent post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Melasma and Pigmentation

While traditional microneedling can worsen melasma, experienced practitioners use modified techniques. Combining with tranexamic acid or kojic acid, applied when channels are open, can improve stubborn pigmentation.

Stretch Marks

Body microneedling for stretch marks requires deeper penetration and often more sessions. London clinics with body-contouring focus offer specialised protocols combining microneedling with other modalities.

The London Clinic Experience

Premium London clinics provide comprehensive treatment experiences. Pre-treatment skin analysis using devices like VISIA identifies underlying concerns. Customised treatment plans address multiple skin issues systematically.

Post-treatment care often includes LED therapy to reduce downtime. Some clinics provide take-home products specifically formulated for post-microneedling care. This attention to detail optimises results and patient experience.

Choosing Your Provider

Research potential clinics thoroughly. Check practitioner qualifications - nurses should have aesthetic training beyond basic nursing qualifications. Before-and-after photos should show various skin types and concerns similar to yours.

Ask about their protocols for complications. While rare, infections or scarring can occur. Quality clinics have clear protocols and relationships with dermatologists for managing adverse events.

Investment Considerations

Single microneedling sessions in London range from £150-500, depending on the device and add-ons. Packages of 3-6 sessions often provide better value. Factor in recommended skincare products when budgeting - proper home care significantly impacts results.
