Where would you
like to start?

Three areas, six treatments. Each begins with a doctor.

I

Hair.

For hair that is thinning rather than gone. Your own platelets are returned to the scalp to support the follicles that are shrinking.

It works best caught early and treated alongside medical care. It improves density; it does not regrow a bald scalp, and we will say so at the start.

Course
3 to 4 sessions, about a month apart
Downtime
None. Back to work the same day
Results
Judged at 3 and 6 months, lasting up to 12
Top-ups
Every 6 to 12 months

Hair PRP

£450 a session

Platelet-rich plasma, to the scalp

3 to 4 sessions, about a month apart

A doctor examines the scalp first, because patchy loss, scarring loss and shedding after illness each need something else. Standardised photographs are taken so change can be judged fairly.

Suits
Recent pattern thinning: a widening parting, a thinning crown, a receding hairline.
Not for
A scalp that has been bare for years, scarring alopecia, or thinning from low iron or thyroid, which is treated at the cause.
Before
Pause aspirin, ibuprofen and fish oil for 7 days unless prescribed. Wash your hair that morning.
After
No downtime. Do not wash your hair for 24 hours or exercise hard for 48.

Hair PRP + Personalised Prescription Foam

£595 a session

Platelet-rich plasma, with a foam for home

3 to 4 sessions, about a month apart

The same session, with a prescription foam made up for you after the doctor’s review, used daily at home between sessions to hold and build on the result.

Suits
Pattern thinning where a daily treatment at home will help hold the gain.
The foam
Prescribed for you after the review. It is personalised, so it is only issued once a doctor has seen you.
After
No downtime. The same aftercare as Hair PRP.

Rather see a doctor first? Book the consultation on its own. If you go ahead, £50 of it comes off your first session.

Hair in detail

II

Face and under the eye.

For skin that looks tired rather than skin that needs volume. The change is subtle and gradual, over two to four months, and it is not a changed face.

Under the eye we offer both PRP and PRF, and the doctor recommends one at your consultation.

Course
3 to 4 for the face, 2 to 3 under the eye
Downtime
A few days of redness or swelling
Bruising
Under the eye, up to two weeks
Top-ups
Every 6 to 12 months

PRP Facial

£525 a session

Platelet-rich plasma, with microneedling

3 to 4 sessions, about a month apart

The vampire facial. PRP is applied during microneedling, so the growth factors reach the layers where collagen is made. For texture and tone.

Suits
Dull, tired or crepey skin, and early texture change.
Not for
Volume loss or lines that move, where anti-wrinkle treatment or filler fits better. We will say so.
After
A few days of redness and mild swelling. No intense exercise for 48 hours.

Under-eye PRP or PRF

£450 a session

Plasma or fibrin, chosen by the doctor

2 to 3 sessions, about a month apart

PRF is spun more slowly and releases its growth factors over a longer period; PRP releases them faster. Either treats hollowness, dark circles and fine lines.

Suits
Under-eye hollows, darkness and fine lines.
After
Bruising can take up to two weeks to clear. Results come gradually, over two to three months.
Risks
Very rarely, a blocked vessel. It is why this is only ever done by a doctor.

Exosome Facial

£415 a session

Exosomes, applied during microneedling

2 to 3 sessions, about a month apart

Exosomes worked into the skin during microneedling, for overall skin quality and texture. Applied to the skin, never injected.

Suits
Skin quality and texture, on its own or alongside PRP.
After
A day or two of redness.

III

Joints.

For mild-to-moderate knee osteoarthritis and chronic tendon pain, as an addition to exercise rather than a replacement.

Joint PRP is carried out only by our specialist PRP doctor, placed under ultrasound. Some assessments end without a needle, and we say so.

Course
1 to 3 sessions, decided by the specialist
Guided
Under ultrasound
Downtime
A flare of 1 to 3 days
Alongside
A loading programme

PRP for Joints

£750 a session

Platelet-rich plasma, under ultrasound

1 to 3 sessions

The specialist examines the joint first, through its range and under load, with diagnostic ultrasound where it changes the answer. PRP is then placed into the joint or around the tendon.

Suits
Mild-to-moderate knee osteoarthritis and chronic tendinopathy.
Not for
Severe arthritis, an acute injury or infection.
After
The joint can flare for one to three days. Rest it, take paracetamol rather than anti-inflammatories, then resume the programme.
Not a steroid
A corticosteroid injection is a different treatment, a single visit at £695 that settles inflammation for weeks.

Rather see a doctor first? Book the consultation on its own. If you go ahead, £50 of it comes off your first session.

A note on the evidence

We tell you what PRP can do, and what it cannot.

The strongest evidence is for pattern hair loss. A randomised trial found more hairs per square centimetre on the treated side of the scalp than on the untreated side1, and a review of the trials found the same direction2. The trials are small and preparation differs between clinics3, so the honest expectation is better density, not regrowth.

For the face and for joints the evidence is thinner. We offer PRP there alongside treatments with stronger evidence, not instead of them, and we say so when something else would suit you better.

Questions people ask
before booking PRP.

At The Wellness a hair PRP session is £450, a PRP facial £525, under-eye PRP or PRF £450 and joint PRP £750. A course of three is 10% off. A consultation on its own is £150, and £50 of it comes off your first session if you go ahead.

Yes. Book a session online and one of our doctors will call you before it to check PRP is right for you. If you would rather be seen first, book a consultation instead. If you then go ahead with treatment, £50 of the consultation fee is credited against your first session.

For hair and the face, a course is usually 3 to 4 sessions about a month apart. Under the eye it is usually 2 to 3. For joints the specialist decides, usually 1 to 3 injections. We never promise that a set number of sessions will fix the problem, because people respond differently.

Results can last up to 12 months. Because the underlying process carries on, we advise a top-up every 6 to 12 months, depending on how you respond.

For hair, none: you can go back to work the same day. After a PRP facial or under-eye treatment expect a few days of redness or swelling, and bruising can take up to two weeks to clear. After a joint injection the joint can flare for a day to three days, and we ask you to rest it for a few days.

Both are made from a small sample of your own blood. PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) is spun more slowly and without additives, forming a fibrin matrix that releases growth factors over a longer period. PRP releases them more quickly. We offer both, and the doctor recommends one at your consultation.

Every PRP treatment is carried out by one of our doctors, and joint PRP only by our specialist PRP doctor. Joint injections are placed under ultrasound guidance.

Most people describe mild pressure with occasional pinching. We use numbing cream on the skin and local anaesthetic where it helps. The blood draw is like a standard blood test.

PRP is not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with a bleeding disorder, an active infection or cancer treatment, or on some blood thinners. We go through your history on the qualifying call or at the consultation before anything is booked.
