PRP Fat Transfer London - Harley Street - Free Consultation

PRP fat transfer is a combination of two powerful techniques: fat grafting, or fat transfer, and PRP therapy. PRP is harvested from your blood and will contain growth factors that can help the affected tissue heal more quickly and regenerate. And it secures the survival of transferred fats. The most common method is in fact fat grafting where the patient’s own fat cells are harvested from their body. It is a quick and painless mini-liposuction procedure. After the fat harvesting part, fats are purified and mixed up with PRP, then injected carefully into the area that needs to be treated.
