PRP & PRF Facial Rejuvenation

Natural regenerative skin treatment for glow, collagen, under-eyes, acne scars and skin quality.
 

At Cheshire MediGlow, we offer PRP and PRF facial rejuvenation in Altrincham, Cheshire and Manchester for clients looking to improve skin quality naturally. These regenerative treatments use concentrated components from your own blood to support collagen stimulation, skin repair, radiance, hydration, texture and overall rejuvenation.


PRP and PRF can be used on the face, under-eyes, neck and décolletage, and can be delivered through targeted injections, mesotherapy-style microinjections or microneedling, depending on your concern. This makes treatment highly versatile for clients wanting a natural glow, smoother texture, under-eye freshness or improvement in acne scarring.
 

Our approach is medic-led, personalised and regenerative, focusing on healthier-looking skin without changing your facial features.

What is PRP and PRF facial rejuvenation

PRP, or Platelet-Rich Plasma, is taken from a small sample of your own blood and processed to concentrate the plasma, platelets and growth factors. These growth factors help support skin repair, collagen production and tissue renewal.

PRF, or Platelet-Rich Fibrin, is a more advanced preparation that forms a natural fibrin matrix. This allows growth factors to release more gradually over time, making PRF particularly useful for clients wanting longer-lasting regenerative support.

​

Both PRP and PRF are natural, autologous treatments, meaning they come from your own body.

What can PRP and PRF facial rejuvenation help with?

​PRP and PRF may help improve the appearance of:

  • Dull or tired-looking skin 

  • Fine lines and early signs of ageing 

  • Crepey skin 

  • Under-eye dullness and skin thinning 

  • Uneven skin texture 

  • Acne scarring 

  • Enlarged pores 

  • Loss of glow 

  • Neck and décolletage crepiness 

  • Overall skin quality and radiance 

PRP and PRF are ideal for clients who want natural facial rejuvenation in Manchester, Cheshire or Altrincham without filler or more invasive procedures.

PRP/PRF Injections, Mesotherapy and Microneedling

At Cheshire MediGlow, PRP and PRF facial treatments can be delivered in different ways depending on your skin goals.

​

PRP/PRF injections

Targeted injections are useful for areas where the skin needs more focused regenerative support, such as the under-eyes, cheeks, neck or areas of visible crepiness.

​

PRP/PRF mesotherapy

Mesotherapy-style microinjections involve placing small amounts of PRP or PRF across the skin to improve hydration, glow, collagen stimulation and overall skin quality.

​

PRP/PRF microneedling

Microneedling creates controlled microchannels in the skin, allowing PRP or PRF to support repair and collagen stimulation. This can be particularly helpful for acne scars, uneven texture, pores and skin rejuvenation.

​

For acne scarring and textural concerns, combining PRP or PRF with microneedling can be especially effective because microneedling stimulates collagen remodelling while PRP/PRF supports the skin’s healing response.

PRP and PRF for under-eye rejuvenation

The under-eye area is delicate and often one of the first places to show tiredness, thinning and crepiness.

PRP and PRF can be used to support skin quality under the eyes by helping improve:

  • Crepey under-eye skin 

  • Dullness 

  • Tired-looking eyes 

  • Fine lines 

  • Thin, fragile skin texture 

  • Loss of firmness 

PRF is especially popular for under-eye rejuvenation because of its slower release of growth factors and natural regenerative effect.

This is not the same as tear trough filler. PRP and PRF focus on improving skin quality rather than adding volume.

PRP and PRF for the neck and décolletage

The neck and décolletage are commonly affected by fine lines, crepiness, sun damage and reduced elasticity.

PRP and PRF can be used in these areas to support collagen stimulation and improve the appearance of thinner, more delicate skin.

This can be a good option for clients wanting natural rejuvenation of the face, neck and chest without changing facial shape or volume.

PRP and PRF for acne scars and skin texture

PRP and PRF can be helpful for clients concerned about acne scars, uneven texture and post-acne skin damage.
 

When combined with microneedling or mesotherapy-style techniques, PRP and PRF can support collagen stimulation and tissue repair. This makes the treatment especially useful for clients who want gradual improvement in:
 

  • Shallow acne scarring 

  • Uneven skin texture 

  • Post-acne skin quality 

  • Pores 

  • Dull or damaged skin 
     

For more established acne scars, we may recommend PRP/PRF as part of a wider skin plan alongside advanced microneedling.

PRP vs PRF facial rejuvenation

Both PRP and PRF can improve skin quality, but they work slightly differently.

PRP is often chosen for glow, hydration, collagen support and general skin rejuvenation.

PRF is often chosen when a slower, more sustained regenerative effect is desired, particularly for delicate areas such as the under-eyes or for clients wanting deeper skin repair.

During your consultation, we will advise whether PRP, PRF or a combination approach is most suitable for your skin.

Common Questions

Who is PRP/PRF facial rejuvenation best suited for?

PRP and PRF facial rejuvenation may be suitable for clients who want a natural, regenerative treatment for dullness, fine lines, under-eye skin quality, acne scarring, crepiness or overall skin texture.

It is particularly popular with clients who want visible skin improvement without changing their facial features.

If another treatment may be more suitable, we can advise on alternatives or combination plans such as microneedling, skin boosters, polynucleotides, exosomes or PRF bio-filler.

​

What happens during treatment?

Your appointment begins with a consultation and skin assessment. We will discuss your concerns, treatment goals and whether PRP or PRF is most appropriate.

A small blood sample is taken and processed using a specialist centrifuge to separate the regenerative plasma or fibrin-rich layer.

The PRP or PRF is then applied using the most suitable method for your skin, which may include targeted injections, mesotherapy-style microinjections or microneedling.

After treatment, you will be given personalised aftercare advice to support healing and optimise your results.

​

Results and downtime

After treatment, you may experience mild redness, swelling, tenderness or small injection marks depending on the technique used. This usually settles within a few days.

Some clients notice an early glow, but the deeper regenerative benefits develop gradually as collagen production and skin repair continue over the following weeks.

For best results, a course of treatments is usually recommended.

​

How many sessions will I need?

The number of sessions depends on your skin concerns and treatment goals.

For general glow and rejuvenation, a course of 3 sessions is commonly recommended.

For acne scarring, under-eye concerns, neck rejuvenation or more significant texture changes, a longer treatment plan may be advised.

Maintenance treatments can then be planned every few months depending on your response and desired results.

​

PRP facial vs vampire facial 

PRP facial rejuvenation is sometimes called a vampire facial, especially when PRP is combined with microneedling.

At Cheshire MediGlow, we prefer to describe it as PRP facial rejuvenation because the treatment is more advanced than the viral name suggests. It is a regenerative skin treatment designed to support collagen, texture, glow and skin repair using your body’s own growth factors.

​

Safety, suitability and medic-led care

At Cheshire MediGlow, PRP and PRF facial treatments are performed with a medic-led approach and tailored to your skin.

Before treatment, we assess your skin quality, medical history, treatment goals, current skincare, previous aesthetic treatments and any relevant contraindications.

This allows us to choose the safest and most effective technique, whether that is PRP, PRF, microneedling, mesotherapy-style treatment or a combination plan.

PRP vs PRF – Which Is Better for Facial Rejuvenation?

  • A vampire facial usually refers to PRP applied with microneedling. PRP facial rejuvenation can include microneedling, mesotherapy-style microinjections or targeted injections depending on your skin concern.

  • PRP is platelet-rich plasma and is commonly used for glow, hydration and skin rejuvenation. PRF is platelet-rich fibrin and releases growth factors more gradually, making it useful for deeper regenerative support and delicate areas such as the under-eyes.

  • Yes. PRP and PRF can help improve under-eye skin quality, crepiness, dullness and fine lines. PRF is especially popular for under-eye rejuvenation because of its gradual release of growth factors.

  • ​Yes. PRP or PRF can support acne scar treatment, especially when combined with microneedling. Microneedling stimulates collagen remodelling while PRP/PRF supports healing and skin repair.

  • No. PRP and PRF facial rejuvenation are designed to improve skin quality rather than alter facial structure or add significant volume.

  • Some clients notice an early glow within days, but collagen stimulation and skin repair develop gradually over several weeks.

  • Most clients benefit from a course of treatments. A typical plan may involve 3 sessions, followed by maintenance depending on your skin goals.
