PRP for Skin (Platelet-Rich Plasma)
PRP for skin is a regenerative aesthetic treatment that uses the patient’s own blood plasma, enriched with platelets and growth factors, to stimulate skin repair, collagen production, and cellular renewal. By harnessing the body’s natural healing mechanisms, PRP improves skin quality, texture, and vitality without introducing synthetic substances.
At our clinic in Lisbon, Portugal, PRP skin treatments are offered as part of a holistic, longevity-focused approach to skin rejuvenation. The treatment enhances natural regeneration, resulting in healthier, more resilient, and more radiant skin over time.
