PRP Treatment Melbourne

As you age, your skin naturally changes. Collagen and elastin, which help give skin its structure, are produced in smaller amounts over time. These may contribute to lines, wrinkles, and changes in skin firmness.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a treatment that uses a patient’s own blood plasma. Plasma is the clear part of the blood that carries platelets, red and white blood cells, and nutrients throughout the body. After the blood is collected and processed, the plasma is applied to targeted areas of the face or body.

The treatment process and outcomes can vary, and Dr Ed Omarjee will discuss possible options, risks, and aftercare with you during your consultation.

Disclaimer

All treatments require a formal consultation with Dr Omarjee prior to any treatment. During this consultation, patients' concerns are carefully assessed, and a personalised treatment plan is developed. This includes discussing the nature of the proposed treatment(s), alternative treatments, potential risks and relevant complications, aftercare instructions, and the costs involved. It also allows time for patients to ask questions.

PRP Treatment Applications

PRP may be considered for a range of concerns, including changes in skin texture, tone, or hydration.

Concerns that may be addressed with PRP include:

  • Lines on the forehead
  • Lines around the outer corners of the eyes
  • Lines around the lips
  • Lines across the bridge of the nose
  • Downward lines from the corners of the mouth
  • Skin discolouration under the eyes
  • Acne or surgical scars
  • Age-related changes in the brow, jawline, neck, and upper chest
  • Concerns about reduced hair volume or hair loss

During your consultation, Dr Ed Omarjee will discuss which of these concerns may be suitable for PRP, along with possible risks and aftercare.

The PRP Procedure – What to Expect

Before treatment, Dr Omarjee will discuss your concerns, medical history, and any past treatments to determine whether PRP is suitable for you.

During the procedure, a small amount of blood is collected and placed into a device called a centrifuge. This separates the plasma, which is then applied to the treatment areas. A PRP session can take around 30 minutes, depending on the areas involved.

Results are not immediate, as the body needs time to respond. Changes may become noticeable over several weeks.

PRP is sometimes performed over a series of 2–4 sessions, usually spaced several weeks apart. Further sessions may be considered as part of an ongoing treatment plan.

Are There Any Side Effects?

Since PRP uses your own blood plasma, the risk of rejection is considered low. However, side effects can occur.

In the first 12–24 hours, some patients may notice swelling, bruising, or redness. The area where blood was collected may also feel tender or slightly bruised.

Dr Ed Omarjee will provide aftercare instructions to help support healing and guide you on what to expect during recovery. Experiences can vary between patients.

PRP Costs

Costs can vary depending on factors such as:

  • The number of treatment sessions recommended
  • The size and location of the areas being treated
  • Whether multiple areas are treated in the same session
  • Any follow-up or ongoing treatments that may be required

A personalised plan, including pricing and aftercare details, will be provided at your consultation with Dr Ed Omarjee.
