How We Prepare For A Platelet-Rich Plasma Treatment At TLC

How We Prepare For A Platelet-Rich Plasma Treatment At TLC

We have invested in two platelet-rich plasma-producing devices: the Arthrex ACP and the Angel. These machines are helping us revolutionise our services at The Lovely Clinic so that we can give our patients the best possible treatments to help them look (and feel!) fantastic. Platelet-rich plasma, also known as the vampire facial, is a futuristic way to rejuvenate the skin, taking advantage of your body’s natural ability to regenerate itself by using your own blood cells. It may sound scary but the treatment is very simple – after taking a small amount of your blood, we then spin it in a centrifuge and collect the nutrient-rich plasma before injecting it exactly where it is needed. We love it for treating the delicate skin around the eyes, and it is excellent for any hair loss too. PRP is generally good for improving small lines and wrinkles, sun damage and dark circles, so it’s a treatment we’re really championing at TLC! Here, we share some insight into our wonderful PRP machines so you can learn more about how they work.

ANGEL

Using light to separate the blood, the Angel has the ability to produce extremely concentrated PRP and this is particularly helpful for creating solutions for hair transplant surgery and also in patients who require large volumes of PRP.

Why we love it: We can use this machine to make a gel-like substance with your PRP which we often inject under the eyes. This is a successful and advanced way to fill an area with lost volume, without using any filler.

ARTHREX ACP

The Arthrex ACP machine is much quicker and more widely used clinically due to the faster results. We often refer to it as our ‘workhorse’ as we use it day in, day out with excellent results.

Why we love it: This machine only requires 15ml of blood to produce PRP (compared to the Angels 60ml) and takes just five minutes to produce a high-quality result. If you’re curious about PRP, head to our PRP treatments page to read our frequently asked questions on PRP or just get in touch with us to find out more.

Please note the following points before proceeding to the booking site:

 

  • For new patients making their first booking please note that your card will be charged £150 for the initial consultation fee to be processed.
  • For more information about our specific treatment charges please see our pricing guide or get in touch.

  • Following a consultation appointment, if you choose to undergo treatment within three months of the original consultation, the £150 consultation fee is redeemable against the cost of treatment and will be held on your patient account.

  • For our existing patients, your card details will be captured at the point of booking and are held on your patient file but no charges will be applied except in the event of a late-cancellation or no-show (see below).
  • The Lovely Clinic’s Cancellation & Rescheduling Policy applies to all appointments which are cancelled or rescheduled with less than 48 hours notice. All such cancellations or rescheduling will incur a cancellation fee of £150. This charge will be levied against the card details taken at the time of booking and no further appointments will be arranged until the cancellation charge has been settled.

  • If you arrive more than 10 minutes late for your appointment, we reserve the right to cancel the appointment and charge the late-cancellation fee of £150 to avoid unfair impact on our other patients.

  • Certain services - such as Sculptra®, Lanluma® and Desirial® - will require payment in full prior to booking.

  • Packages, once commenced and the first service is taken, are strictly non-refundable. If a package is cancelled prior to commencement, the cancellation must be received within 48 hours of the first appointment, otherwise a cancellation fee of £150 will be incurred.

  • Botulinum toxin review appointments must be taken within four weeks of the original appointment. Any other timescale must be agreed with the clinic by prior arrangement.

  • Payment rendered is for the services performed only and no guarantee is given regarding any specific outcomes.

  • New patients are seen for consultation and assessment. In order to comply with General Medical Council guidelines, in exceptional circumstances, certain treatments may be carried out on the day of consultation at the agreement of the patient and clinician. More invasive treatments must be scheduled for an appointment at a later date. There is an option for an online consultation should you be travelling a long distance.

  • Treatment is granted at the discretion of the clinician. No guarantee is given that treatment will be provided for a service booked online as it may be unsuitable.

  • Your card details will be securely stored on our payment system for your convenience. This information can be removed at any time upon on request.
