What is iPRF Therapy?
Injectable Platelet Rich Fibrin (iPRF) is a next-generation regenerative aesthetic, transforming a quick, initial spark of rejuvenation into a strong, sustained internal healing process.
Processing your blood at a carefully calibrated lower speed, iPRF captures the full team: your platelets, white blood cells, stem cells, and fibrin. They’re the dedicated repair crew, arriving at the scene, staying longer, and steadily rebuilding from the ground up, creating a powerful regenerative matrix.
What makes iPRF exceptional is its longevity.
Traditional Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) releases its growth factors within hours. iPRF’s fibrin matrix traps these growth factors, releasing them slowly and continuously over more than a week. Your tissue receptors respond over a prolonged period, leading to more robust regeneration.
The science is compelling: iPRF contains approximately 10 times the platelet concentration of normal blood and more circulating stem cells than standard PRP.
More healing components, delivered more effectively, for longer. Find out more about how iPRF works in our PRP/iPRF science deep-dive article.

How iPRF Supports Natural Hair Growth and Skin Renewal
For Hair Restoration
Many clients come to us frustrated with hair thinning. iPRF therapy works by awakening dormant hair follicles and nourishing your scalp’s natural regenerative potential. The concentrated growth factors signal follicles to enter their active growth phase, whilst the fibrin matrix ensures these signals remain where they’re needed rather than dispersing quickly.
Clients typically notice both increased hair density and improved thickness of existing strands. The stem cells within iPRF support the microenvironment around each follicle, providing the biological signals needed for healthy hair production. For those who cannot or prefer not to take hair loss medications, iPRF offers a completely natural alternative with minimal risk of adverse reactions.
For Facial Rejuvenation
If you’re noticing changes in your skin’s texture, elasticity, or overall radiance, iPRF facial therapy amplifies what your body already does naturally: heal and regenerate. The growth factors signal your skin cells to produce fresh collagen and elastin, supporting the underlying structure that gives skin its firmness and resilience.
Over several weeks following treatment, you’ll notice gradual improvements as new collagen forms. Clients appreciate the subtle but noticeable refinement in skin texture, reduction in fine lines, and more even complexion. iPRF is particularly effective for under-eye hollows, acne scars, and areas where you’ve noticed textural changes.

Your iPRF Treatment Journey
During your consultation, we’ll assess your specific concerns, whether that’s a hair thinning pattern, skin texture concerns, or both. We’ll review your health history and create a treatment plan tailored to your goals.
On treatment day, we begin by drawing a small amount of blood, similar to a routine blood test. This is placed in a specialised centrifuge that spins at precisely calibrated low speeds for 3-4 minutes. This gentle processing preserves all the valuable healing components we need.
Whilst your blood is being processed, we prepare the treatment area with thorough cleansing and a topical anaesthetic to ensure your comfort. The iPRF is then carefully injected into target areas using very fine needles. For hair restoration, injections are placed approximately half an inch apart across thinning areas. For facial treatments, we focus on addressing your areas of concern, including the under-eyes, cheeks, and areas with textural changes.
The entire appointment lasts 45-60 minutes. There’s no downtime required. You may notice temporary redness or mild swelling, which will quickly subside.

Treatment Course and Investment
We typically recommend an initial course of 3-4 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. This allows each treatment to build upon the previous one whilst your tissue is actively regenerating. Following this initial course, maintenance sessions every 6-12 months help sustain your results.
iPRF therapy sessions are priced at £200 per treatment. During your consultation, we’ll create a treatment plan tailored to your goals and discuss the associated investment.
What’s included:
- Comprehensive consultation and assessment
- Blood draw and specialised iPRF processing
- Topical anaesthetic for comfort
- Precise injection technique by experienced practitioners
- Aftercare guidance and follow-up support
What to Expect After Treatment
Immediate effects
You may experience temporary redness, mild swelling, or slight tenderness at injection sites. These typically resolve within a few hours. Small marks at injection sites fade naturally within days.
Skin rejuvenation timeline
For facial rejuvenation, subtle improvements often begin within 2-4 weeks as collagen production increases, with continued enhancement over several months.
Hair restoration timeline
Hair restoration takes longer. You may notice changes around 2-3 months, with more significant results visible at 6 months as new hair growth cycles complete.
Side effects
iPRF is exceptionally safe because we’re using only your body’s own components. Adverse reactions are rare. Occasionally, clients experience a temporary headache or slight itching as the treatment area heals.
Aftercare
Avoid intense exercise and direct sun exposure for 24 hours following treatment. We’ll provide specific aftercare guidance tailored to whether you’ve had scalp or facial treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How does iPRF compare to PRP?
iPRF represents a significant advancement over traditional PRP. It contains approximately 10 times the platelet concentration and more stem cells. Most importantly, iPRF releases growth factors slowly over a week or more, whilst PRP releases them within hours. The sustained delivery leads to more robust tissue regeneration. iPRF also requires no anticoagulants, making it a completely natural treatment.
- Can iPRF restore all my lost hair?
iPRF works best on hair follicles that are dormant but still present. It cannot regenerate follicles that have been completely absent for many years. During your consultation, we’ll honestly assess your hair loss pattern and discuss realistic expectations. Early to intermediate stage hair loss typically responds best to iPRF therapy.
- Is iPRF suitable for my skin type?
Because iPRF uses your own blood components, it’s suitable for all skin types with minimal risk of reactions. However, it’s not recommended if you have active blood disorders, are taking blood-thinning medications, have active skin infections in the treatment area, or have certain chronic health conditions. We’ll review your complete medical history during the consultation.
- How many sessions will I need, and when will I see results?
We typically recommend 3-4 initial sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance every 6-12 months. For facial treatments, you may notice subtle improvements within 2 to 4 weeks. For hair restoration, changes typically become visible around 2-3 months, with significant results at 6 months. We’re supporting natural biological processes, so patience is important.
- Can I combine iPRF with other treatments?
Yes, iPRF complements many aesthetic treatments beautifully. It works well with dermal fillers, Profhilo, and microneedling. However, timing matters; we’ll need to space certain treatments appropriately. During your consultation, we’ll review your current treatment plan and advise on the best approach to integrate iPRF safely and effectively.
