No foreign substances are used—only your body's own growth factors. The result: fresh, smoother, and visibly regenerated skin—without any volume enhancement or artificial effects.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
How often should PRP be performed?
For optimal results, we recommend 3 sessions at 4-week intervals, followed by a refresher treatment every 4–6 months.
Is PRP safe?
Yes—since only the body's own material is used, the treatment is particularly well tolerated, even by sensitive skin.
Treatment procedure
First, we take a small amount of blood, prepare the platelet-rich plasma, and inject it into the skin using very fine needles. The treatment takes about 45 minutes, is well tolerated, and requires no downtime. Initial results are usually visible after 2–4 weeks.
PRP in Hamburg – when your skin deserves a boost of energy
"I look tired—even though I actually feel fine."
We hear this sentence very often in our practice. Over time, the skin loses its radiance, especially on the face and décolleté—it appears thinner, duller, and sometimes simply "saggy." And this is exactly where PRP comes in.
Autologous blood therapy—also known as PRP or "vampire facelift"—uses your body's own growth factors to activate the skin: gently, naturally, biologically. No volume enhancement, no foreign materials—just genuine regeneration from within.
For many of our patients, this is the moment when they recognize themselves in their reflection again: fresher, clearer, more vibrant.
At our practice in Hamburg, we combine medical expertise with a keen sense of aesthetics and naturalness. We listen carefully, look closely—and develop a concept that suits your skin and your personality.
What is PRP—and why does it work so naturally?
PRP stands for "platelet-rich plasma." What sounds technical is actually quite simple: your body contains everything your skin needs to renew itself. We extract this power from your own blood—concentrated, processed, and gently reintroduced into your skin.
Plasma contains growth factors that stimulate the formation of collagen, elastin, and new skin structure. Unlike fillers, this treatment is not about filling—it's about activating. Your skin begins to work again, glow, and strengthen itself.
Many of our patients say that the result feels "real"—because it comes from within. And that is precisely our goal: naturalness that you can see—but not recognize.
What happens in the body after PRP treatment?
As soon as the processed plasma is injected into your skin, a fascinating biological cascade begins: the growth factors stimulate blood circulation, improve oxygen supply to the cells, and stimulate collagen synthesis. At the same time, they promote cell division and tissue regeneration.
In concrete terms, this means that your skin is "repaired" from within. Minor micro-injuries or structural weaknesses are repaired, and the skin becomes denser, more resilient, and more even. This process takes place over several weeks—without the use of any artificial substances. It is a kind of cell training with long-term effects.
Where PRP can be particularly effective
Whether you want a fresher complexion, firmer skin on your neck, or a new glow on your décolleté, PRP is extremely versatile. It is particularly popular for treating fine lines, thin skin, tired complexions, or the first signs of loss of elasticity. Dark circles under the eyes, acne scars, and dull cheeks also respond very well to PRP.
We give you honest advice: sometimes PRP alone is the best choice—sometimes a combination with microneedling, skin boosters, or threads makes more sense. The decisive factor is not the trend, but what your skin really needs.
Particularly effective for:
- Dark circles & wrinkles
- Cheeks & temples with volume loss
- Neck, décolleté, hands
- Acne and surgical scars
- Scalp with early hair loss
What many patients think before their first PRP treatment
We often hear the same questions, especially at the first appointment:
"Does it hurt?" – The treatment is easily tolerable. We can apply an anesthetic cream upon request. Most patients only feel a slight prick.
"What happens to my blood?" – We collect it under hygienic conditions, process it immediately, and use only your own plasma.
"Will it look bad afterward?" – Usually not. Slight redness or small blood spots usually disappear after a day. You will quickly be socially presentable again.
"How long does it last?" – Initial effects can be seen after a few weeks, with full results visible after approximately two months. The effect can be maintained with touch-ups.
This is how your PRP treatment works with us
We always start with a calm, honest conversation: What is bothering you? What are your wishes? We take a close look at your skin and explain what PRP can and cannot do. And if everything fits, we begin the actual procedure.
The treatment takes about 45–60 minutes in total—but the feeling of looking "fresh" again lasts much longer.
Blood sampling:
We take approximately 10–20 ml of blood – similar to a laboratory test.
Processing:
The blood is centrifuged. What remains is "liquid gold"—your body's own plasma, rich in growth factors.
Injection:
We use fine needles to inject the PRP precisely into the desired areas. An anesthetic cream can be applied beforehand if desired.
After that:
You will be socially presentable again immediately. Slight redness or small blood spots usually disappear within a day.
How quickly does PRP work—and how long does it last?
Many report that after 2–3 weeks, they simply feel better when they look in the mirror. Their complexion appears clearer, their skin denser, their face more alert. After 6–8 weeks, the full effect is often visible: smoother, firmer, more radiant—without anyone noticing what has been done.
We recommend a series of 3 sessions at 4-week intervals to kick-start the process properly. After that, refresher sessions every 4–6 months are usually sufficient.
The effect lasts for around 6 to 12 months, depending on skin type, age, skincare routine, and lifestyle.
How does PRP affect skin quality in the long term?
In the long term, patients report:
- visibly refined pores
- improved skin elasticity
- more even complexion
- less dryness or tightness
PRP is therefore not only suitable for treating existing skin changes, but also for prevention —e.g., if you want to do something for your skin health at an early stage.
Is PRP safe? – Yes, because it consists of 100% of your own blood.
What makes PRP so special is that it is purely biological. No additives, no allergy risks, no foreign bodies. This makes the method ideal for sensitive skin or people who want the most natural treatment possible.
Possible reactions:
- slight redness
- small blue marks at the injection sites
- Tightness for one to two days
All of this is normal—and usually disappears quickly.
What PRP cannot do—and why we give honest advice
As effective as PRP is, it is not a miracle cure. Deep static wrinkles, pronounced volume loss, or severe loss of elasticity are sometimes better treated with fillers, threads, or skin boosters.
During consultations, we therefore clearly state when PRP alone will not produce the desired result. Honesty and individual solutions are our top priorities.
Sometimes PRP is the perfect first step—sometimes part of a larger plan.
PRP for hair loss – new strength for the scalp
PRP can also be a real help for hair loss. Especially in the early stages—when the hair roots are still active but weakened—the plasma can improve blood circulation, stimulate the follicles, and encourage growth again.
Many of our patients report that hair loss has significantly decreased after just a few sessions. Others feel that their hair appears stronger, thicker, and denser. It is important to note that the earlier you start, the better the chances of success.
Greater impact with combination therapy – PRP as part of an overall concept
Sometimes PRP alone is sufficient. But often it is most effective when used in combination with other treatments, such as microneedling, skin boosters, or threads. Together, we will discuss what makes sense and what suits your skin type.
Our philosophy: Less is more—but the right thing at the right time makes all the difference.

Voices from practice – what patients say
"I need less makeup—my skin is back on track."
"I look like I've just come back from vacation, even though I've only had PRP treatment."
"I never thought something so natural could have such a big impact."
These are typical responses after PRP treatment. Some people see a change after the first session. Others need a little longer—but then feel all the more how their skin comes back to life.
