HOW TO BOOK

Before starting any treatment, we begin with a personalised consultation to ensure your skin is ready, the treatment is suitable, and we tailor everything to your goals. Whether you’re seeking skin needling, PRP injections, or a combination of both — our approach is grounded in science, safety, and natural rejuvenation.

You’ll find everything you need to know below to get started — including how to prepare, what to expect, and how to book.

SKIN-NEEDLING WITH PRP

Skin needling with PRP is ideal for those looking to improve texture, fine lines, acne scarring, and overall skin strength.

What You Need to Know:

A consultation is required before your first session to assess your skin and customise your treatment plan. This can be done on the day prior to your treatment on the day.
You must be generally fit and well, with no active infections or broken skin in the area.
If you have eczema, dermatitis, or psoriasis, please let us know in advance.
- Topical cortisone/steroids must be ceased 5–7 days before your appointment.
We’ll also consider the timing of any recent cosmetic treatments (e.g. laser, peels, injectables).

EmCyte PRP Hair & Skin (injections)

If you're considering PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatment for face & hair, the first step is to book a consultation. This is essential so we can assess whether PRP is the right option for your individual needs and treatment goals.

To make the most of your appointment, please bring:

A recent blood test (within the last 3–6 months is ideal)
Any relevant medical history or current medications (a recent health summary is sufficient)

Why do I need a blood test before PRP?
PRP relies on the quality and concentration of your own platelets. Blood results help us assess key markers such as:

Platelet count
Vitamin D and iron levels
Inflammation markers (e.g. CRP)
Thyroid function
Hormonal levels (if relevant for hair loss)

These factors can affect how well you respond to PRP and ensure we’re treating safely and effectively.

Please note: I am a Registered Nurse, not a GP, so while I can review your results in the context of PRP treatment, I cannot diagnose or make broader medical recommendations. If anything falls outside of normal parameters, I’ll guide you to follow up with your GP.

What happens next?

Book a PRP Consultation – We’ll review your concerns and your bloodwork, and discuss the best treatment plan.
Bring supporting documents – Recent blood results and any medical summary help guide treatment suitability.
If suitable, we’ll schedule your first PRP session

This step-by-step approach ensures a personalised, safe, and effective treatment journey.
