Platelet-rich plasma in Wrocław

Platelet-rich plasma in Wrocław (PRP) is a natural method of skin and hair regeneration that uses your body's own capacity for self-repair. At MM Clinic, platelet-rich plasma treatment is performed by Michał Marciniak, MD: he takes a small amount of blood, separates the plasma rich in platelets and growth factors in a centrifuge, and then precisely injects it into the skin. As a result, platelet-rich plasma stimulates collagen production, improves skin firmness and tone and speeds up regeneration - a safe, autologous alternative to more invasive treatments. If you are looking for platelet-rich plasma in Wrocław, below you will find all the information you need: indications, the course of the treatment, results and current prices.

What is platelet-rich plasma (PRP)?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous concentrate of platelets suspended in a small amount of plasma. It is obtained from the patient's own blood: after about 10–20 ml of blood has been drawn, it is placed in a centrifuge, which separates the platelet-rich plasma from the other components. The resulting product contains a platelet concentration up to 3–5 times higher than in peripheral blood. Because the material comes from your own body, platelet-rich plasma is well tolerated and does not cause allergic reactions.

Key fact: platelets store more than 30 growth factors - the body's natural “repair programme”. Once injected into the skin, they stimulate fibroblasts to produce collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, which is exactly what mature, tired skin needs. It is worth knowing that a related product is platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) - we describe the differences below.

How does platelet-rich plasma work? The role of platelets and growth factors

The mechanism of action of platelet-rich plasma is entirely natural. Growth factors released from platelets (most of them within the first hour after injection) trigger regeneration processes in the skin:

  • they stimulate fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin;
  • they accelerate cell renewal at tissue level;
  • they improve microcirculation and skin hydration;
  • they reduce wrinkles and improve elasticity;
  • they support the healing of wounds, scars and post-acne marks.

Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers or botulinum toxin, platelet-rich plasma does not “mask” imperfections - it actively regenerates tissue from within. You can read more about the mechanism in the Wikipedia article on platelet-rich plasma and in an article on the DOZ.pl portal.

Advantages of platelet-rich plasma treatment

Platelet-rich plasma combines effectiveness with safety, which is why it is one of the most frequently chosen regenerative treatments in aesthetic medicine. The main advantages:

  • Natural - the product comes from the patient's own blood, with no foreign substances.
  • Safe - no risk of allergy or rejection.
  • Regenerative effect - a real improvement in skin quality, not just temporary filling.
  • Wide range of uses - face, neck, décolletage, hands, scalp, scars.
  • Short recovery - return to everyday activities usually on the same day.
  • Can be combined - e.g. with needle mesotherapy or microneedle radiofrequency.

Who is platelet-rich plasma in Wrocław for?

Indications for platelet-rich plasma treatment

  • tired, dull skin lacking radiance;
  • wrinkles and fine expression lines;
  • reduced skin elasticity and firmness;
  • acne scars and stretch marks;
  • hair loss, including androgenetic alopecia;
  • skin of the hands, neck and décolletage in need of revitalisation;
  • prevention of ageing in people aged 25–35;
  • support for healing after other treatments.

Platelet-rich plasma is not reserved solely for mature patients - it is increasingly chosen by patients aged 25–35 as a preventive measure. During the consultation, Michał Marciniak, MD, will assess your skin and plan the scope of the treatment.

How to prepare for platelet-rich plasma treatment

Good preparation increases the effectiveness and comfort of the treatment. Recommendations before platelet-rich plasma is administered:

  • Hydration - drink more water on the day before your visit (it makes drawing blood easier).
  • Meal - come having eaten, not on an empty stomach.
  • Alcohol and stimulants - avoid them for 24–48 hours before the treatment.
  • Anticoagulant and anti-inflammatory medicines - inform the doctor; some need to be stopped (after consultation).
  • Skin - there should be no active infections or cold sores in the treatment area.

The platelet-rich plasma treatment step by step at MM Clinic Wrocław

1. Consultation and skin assessment. Michał Marciniak, MD, discusses your goals, assesses the condition of your skin and sets out a treatment plan.
2. Blood draw. 10–20 ml of blood is drawn - as for a routine blood count.
3. Centrifugation. The blood is placed in a centrifuge, which within a few minutes separates platelet-rich plasma with a high platelet concentration.
4. Skin preparation. The treatment area is cleansed and disinfected; anaesthetic cream may optionally be applied.
5. Plasma injection. The doctor precisely injects the product into designated points. The treatment takes 20–30 minutes.
6. After the treatment. Slight redness is possible - this is a natural reaction. You will receive aftercare instructions.
7. Follow-up. After 4–6 weeks we assess the results and plan further sessions.

Platelet-rich plasma for the face - the so-called vampire facial

Injecting platelet-rich plasma into the facial skin (the so-called vampire facial) regenerates tissue, improves elasticity, softens wrinkles and restores a natural radiance. The result is a younger, rested look without the artificiality typical of excessive filler use. Platelet-rich plasma for the face also works well around the eyes and as a complement to facial volumetry and hyaluronic acid fillers.

Platelet-rich plasma for hair - treatment of hair loss and androgenetic alopecia

Injecting platelet-rich plasma into the scalp stimulates hair follicles, strengthens hair and reduces hair loss. The treatment is particularly effective in androgenetic alopecia and is sometimes combined with scalp mesotherapy and care from a trichologist in Wrocław. The effectiveness of PRP in androgenetic alopecia is confirmed by systematic reviews and meta-analyses of clinical studies (see sources).

Other applications of platelet-rich plasma

Regeneration of the neck and décolletage

These often neglected areas respond very well to platelet-rich plasma therapy - the skin becomes firmer and wrinkles less visible.

Treatment of scars and stretch marks

Platelet-rich plasma stimulates the synthesis of new collagen, which helps reduce acne scars and stretch marks. The effect can be enhanced with laser scar treatment.

Hand revitalisation

The hands are among the first to reveal age. PRP improves skin texture and restores a younger appearance.

Support for healing after treatments

Platelet-rich plasma speeds up healing and reduces swelling and bruising after aesthetic medicine treatments.

Platelet-rich plasma vs platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) - what is the difference?

Patients often ask about the difference between platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF). Both products are obtained from the patient's blood, but they differ in the way they are prepared. Platelet-rich fibrin is centrifuged more slowly and without anticoagulants, so it forms a fibrin mesh that gradually releases growth factors. Platelet-rich plasma acts faster and works well for broad skin rejuvenation, whereas fibrin is sometimes preferred for delicate areas, e.g. under the eyes. During the consultation, the doctor will choose the option best suited to your skin.

Platelet-rich plasma vs other treatments - hyaluronic acid, botulinum toxin, mesotherapy

Unlike fillers (which add volume), botulinum toxin (which relaxes muscles) or peels (which remove the epidermis), platelet-rich plasma regenerates tissue from within by stimulating natural collagen. This is why it combines very well with other treatments: botulinum toxin, tissue stimulators or other aesthetic medicine treatments in Wrocław. Ask the doctor about the order and intervals.
