PRP & PRF Facial Rejuvenation Treatment

At Cheshire MediGlow, Altrincham, we specialise in evidence-based, regenerative treatments designed to stimulate your body’s natural healing and collagen production. Our PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) facial rejuvenation treatments are ideal for those seeking a more radiant, youthful appearance without artificial fillers or toxins.

What is PRP & PRF for Face?

Both PRP and PRF use a small sample of your own blood to extract highly concentrated platelets, rich in growth factors and healing proteins. These are then applied topically and delivered into the skin via advanced microneedling or small injections, creating micro-channels that allow the regenerative plasma to penetrate deeply and rejuvenate from within.

​

  • PRP: Extracted plasma with concentrated platelets and growth factors, uses an anti-coagulant.

  • PRF: A more advanced form of PRP, spun at a lower speed without anticoagulants, producing a fibrin matrix that releases growth factors more slowly over time for longer-lasting rejuvenation.

What Are the Benefits of PRP/PRF Facial Treatments?

  • Stimulates collagen and elastin production naturally

  • Improves skin tone, texture, and tightness

  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

  • Boosts hydration and radiance

  • Softens acne scars and pigmentation

  • Minimises pore size and under-eye crepiness

You’ll notice improved skin glow within a few weeks, with ongoing benefits for months as collagen continues to regenerate, think of it as taking strong collagen supplements but without the hassle.
