PRP & Cellular Matrix
What is the PRP & Cellular Matrix for Skin and Hair Rejuvenation at CK Aesthetics?
At CK Aesthetics, we offer Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and the advanced Cellular Matrix treatment to provide a truly organic approach to rejuvenation for both skin and hair. PRP therapy involves extracting a small sample of your own blood, concentrating the growth factors, and reintroducing them into the skin or scalp to stimulate intense repair. Cellular Matrix takes this a step further by combining PRP with non-crosslinked Hyaluronic Acid in one treatment. This unique combination provides an immediate hydrating "lift" for the skin, while for the scalp, the concentrated growth factors work to revitalise thinning hair, making it one of the most effective treatments for tired skin, dark circles, hair thinning, and loss of elasticity.
Treatment Details
Treatment Duration & Frequency at Our Clinic: A typical session for PRP or Cellular Matrix takes approximately 45–60 minutes, whether treating the skin or scalp. Because we are triggering a biological healing cycle, we generally recommend an initial course of 3 to 4 treatments, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, for both skin rejuvenation and hair density goals. To maintain the regenerative effects, a single maintenance session is recommended every 6–12 months.
How Long do the Results Last: The hydrating effects of the Cellular Matrix are visible almost immediately, while the regenerative benefits of the PRP develop more gradually. For skin, you will see a steady improvement in quality and brightness over 3–6 weeks. For hair, most clients begin to notice reduced shedding and improved thickness from around the third session, with fuller results developing over 3–6 months as new growth cycles establish. Because this treatment stimulates your own cells to produce new collagen and support healthier follicles, the structural improvements are long-lasting, typically remaining visible for up to 18 months following a full course.
Downtime & Aftercare: Recovery is generally swift. You may experience some swelling, redness, or minor bruising at the injection sites for 24–48 hours, whether treated on the face or scalp. Because the treatment uses your own biological material, there is virtually no risk of allergic reaction. We recommend avoiding heavy exercise and heat treatments for 48 hours, and for scalp treatments, avoiding hair washing or styling products for 24 hours to allow the growth factors to settle undisturbed.
Main Benefits of PRP & Cellular Matrix
Natural Tissue Repair: Uses your own growth factors to signal the skin or scalp to repair and regenerate itself.
Dual-Action Hydration: Cellular Matrix provides instant moisture and volume through Hyaluronic Acid while PRP heals from within.
Dark Circle Improvement: Highly effective at thickening the thin skin under the eyes to reduce the appearance of dark circles and hollowness.
Improved Elasticity: Stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin for firmer, tighter-looking skin.
Hair Rejuvenation: Concentrated growth factors are designed to stimulate dormant hair follicles, helping to improve hair density and reduce the appearance of thinning at the scalp.
Total Skin & Scalp Health: Enhances overall radiance, tone, and circulation, supporting healthier cellular turnover in both skin and scalp tissue.
Who is PRP & Cellular Matrix For?
This treatment is ideal for clients looking for a "natural" alternative to synthetic fillers, as well as those experiencing early-stage hair thinning who want to avoid more invasive options. It is particularly effective for those concerned with the first signs of ageing, dull or "grey" skin, and thinning skin around the eyes or neck, as well as clients noticing reduced hair density or a widening parting. It is a perfect choice for individuals who want to improve their skin or scalp using their body's own resources, ensuring a result that is never "overdone" but always refreshed.
Safety & Quality
At CK Aesthetics, we use medical-grade centrifugation systems to ensure the highest concentration of platelets for both facial and scalp treatments. All procedures are performed in a sterile clinical environment by our expert practitioners, ensuring your safety and the efficacy of the biological harvest.
-
Yes, PRP and Cellular Matrix are exceptionally safe. Because the treatment uses your own blood, the risk of an allergic reaction or "rejection" is eliminated. It is a biocompatible, autologous treatment that works in harmony with your body.
-
The treatment involves a standard blood draw followed by small injections. Most clients find the procedure very tolerable, often describing it as a series of small stings. We can use topical numbing cream to ensure you are comfortable throughout the process.
-
While the Hyaluronic Acid in Cellular Matrix provides an immediate subtle plumping effect, the true PRP results appear as your skin completes its repair cycle. You will notice a significant improvement in skin radiance and texture about 3–4 weeks after your first session, with results continuing to improve after each subsequent treatment.
-
PRP is designed to support clients experiencing early to moderate thinning by stimulating the hair follicles with concentrated growth factors. Results vary between individuals, and it works best as part of a course of treatments, with your practitioner able to advise on suitability at consultation.
