Mild / Moderate swelling and redness for 12-48 hours. Mild bruising may also occur. How long the side effects last will vary from person to person – in some cases, the side effects may take longer to subside.
Face: Minimal pain, if needed topical anaesthetic cream can be used which will numb the face.
Scalp: Mild / Moderate pain. Scalp injections can be painful but we use certain tools to make the treatment as comfortable as we can for you. Each individuals pain threshold will be different so the level of pain experienced will vary.
Treatment results vary, however, in most patients the results last up to 24 months after completing a course of 4 treatments. Touch-up treatments (every 3-6 months) will maintain the results.
While responses to treatment vary, most people will require 3-4 sessions. Each set of treatments are spaced approximately 4-6 weeks apart. There is no limit to the number of treatments you can have. Your practitioner will determine your treatment protocol according to your skin/scalp condition.
No. Even though your own blood is used to obtain the plasma, there are major differences in the kits used to extract and purify the platelets. Trained in a highly recognised institute in France, and as a specialist in skincare, Dr Wafaa uses one of the best PRP systems that gives the highest concentration of platelets. She Also has different protocols she uses and mixes to the PRP to give you the best sustainable result.
FACE
Whether you want to address crow’s feet, frown lines or loose skin, PRP Therapy can be an effective treatment to restore your skin’s youthful appearance. By encouraging the natural collagen production, this innovative facial rejuvenation treatment can help to provide numerous anti-ageing benefits, helping your skin to look smoother and more plumped.
BODY
Using PRP, we can treat stretch marks, cellulite and scarring on the body. By stimulating and accelerating the body’s natural healing process, the skin is rejuvenated and renewed with PRP Therapy.
SCALP
PRP Therapy can be used to treat one of the most frustrating and common concerns for both men and women, hair loss. The treatment involves harvesting the natural growth factors in the blood and reintroducing them to feed the hair follicle. This great, minimally invasive procedure promotes healthy hair growth, to help give you fuller and thicker hair.
Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy is a non-surgical treatment that utilizes your own body’s healing abilities to stimulate skin and follicle recovery.
It is a natural treatment that uses the platelets from your own blood.
These activated platelets secrete and release at least 7 different growth factors which enhance the natural healing process of the skin and hair follicles.
During a PRP Therapy treatment, a small amount of blood is drawn from you into a sterile tube in the exact same manner as a standard blood test. The tube containing your blood is placed into a centrifuge and spun to separate the plasma and platelets from the other blood components.
After a few minutes, the PRP layer is removed from the same tube and re-introduced into the body at the site to be treated. Using a small sterile needle, your practitioner will inject the PRP in and around the desired site.
The production of collagen-induced by the PRP will brighten, rejuvenate and rehydrate the skin even after the first treatment. A course of 3-4 treatments is recommended to see the full effects of this pioneering technique.
Improvement of skin texture and tone is noticeable within three weeks. Full collagen regeneration takes up to three months. Reduction in hair loss is noticeable within 8 weeks. In most cases, hair re-growth is seen 3-6 months after the last treatment. Results will vary from person to person – during the consultation, the practitioner will examine your area of concern and taking into account your medical history, expected results for your case will be discussed thoroughly.

After having Polynucleotides treatment in Dr Wafaa Clinic for 2 months (3 months for complete treatment), my skin condition has improved, more hydrated, elastic, and my eczema gradually dissapeared. I could not be more pleased. M Ibrahim2024-02-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Dr Wafaa is really great at what she does! I definitely recommend everyone to check out her work and clinic! Raluca I2023-12-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I couldn’t recommend Dr Wafaa highly enough for her professionalism and care for her clients! I’ve had anti-ageing treatments done at a different clinic in Reading and Dr Wafaa is by far better and more professional. During my initial consultation, she’s taken some time to provide me with useful advice tailored to my skin. She has then performed the treatment/ injections and I’m very happy with the results! I cannot say the same about the other clinic i visited earlier in the year! She’s also recommended me a cream that works wonders. I highly recommend Dr Wafaa. ~Raluca~ Marwa Mahdi2023-12-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The atmosphere was calming, and I immediately felt at ease. Dr Waffa demonstrated a deep understanding of TMJ issues, and her expertise were evident throughout the process.
