- Consultation & assessment
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is a medical procedure that uses a component prepared from the patient's own plasma, obtained through a blood draw during the same visit. At Nova Center it is never carried out without a prior medical assessment: that assessment is what confirms whether the treatment is suitable for you, in which area and with what plan, because the number of sessions and the outcome vary from person to person. This page explains what the procedure is, what happens during a visit, who should not consider it without a medical review, and how to request the assessment; it does not replace that assessment or promise a specific result.

How it works
PRP is a medical procedure that uses a component obtained from the patient's own plasma, from a blood draw performed during the same visit. The prior medical assessment confirms whether the treatment is suitable, in which area and with what plan.
- 01
Medical assessment
The doctor reviews your history and your case to confirm whether PRP is a suitable option for you.
- 02
Blood draw
A blood draw is performed during the same visit, as a preliminary step of the procedure.
- 03
Preparing the component
The component to be used is obtained from that draw, following the doctor's clinical judgement.
- 04
Application
The doctor applies the component to the agreed area, according to the plan defined at the assessment.

What this page helps you decide
This page helps you understand what PRP is and why Nova Center does not offer it as a direct booking: it is a medical procedure only proposed after a medical aesthetic assessment, the same consultation through which other medical approaches at the clinic are accessed (for example, biostimulation or facial harmonisation). The assessment is what decides whether PRP fits your case, which area to treat and with what plan; this page does not replace that assessment or pre-empt a diagnosis.
When it may not be the first option
- You are looking for an assured result of hair recovery or skin rejuvenation: no fixed result is ever promised.
- You have a medical condition or take medication that could affect a blood draw or the procedure; this is reviewed at the assessment.
- You are pregnant or breastfeeding: assessed on an individual basis.
- You are looking for a treatment without first going through the medical assessment: at Nova Center, PRP is never performed without it.
Questions for your assessment
- Is PRP a reasonable option for my specific case?
- Which area and which plan would be proposed, if any?
- How many sessions might make sense in my situation?
- What contraindications or precautions should I be aware of?
Planning combinations
Within the medical assessment, the specialist may consider whether it makes sense to combine PRP with another medical aesthetic approach at the clinic — such as biostimulation or facial harmonisation — always within an individual plan agreed at the consultation. It is not a fixed combination or a predefined package.
Preparation & aftercare
Preparation
- Bring your medical history and current medication to the medical assessment.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly is PRP?
It is a medical procedure that uses a component prepared from the patient's own plasma, obtained through a blood draw during the same visit. It is applied to the area the doctor determines, within a plan defined at the assessment.
Does PRP assure hair density recovery or skin rejuvenation?
No. PRP does not assure hair recovery or a fixed skin rejuvenation result. It is a medical procedure whose outcome varies from person to person; the doctor explains at the assessment what can reasonably be expected in your case, without promising a specific result.
How many sessions do I need?
There is no number fixed in advance. The doctor determines it at the assessment, according to your case, and it may be reviewed at follow-up.
Can I book PRP directly, without an assessment?
No. At Nova Center, PRP is always proposed following a prior medical aesthetic assessment. You can request that assessment, and if the doctor considers it suitable, the plan is defined with you.
Who performs the procedure?
It is carried out by the clinic's medical team. The prior medical assessment is also when who will attend to your case is confirmed.
What risks does it carry?
As a procedure that includes a blood draw and a subsequent application, there may be redness, swelling or a mild bruise at the puncture site. The doctor reviews contraindications and case-specific risks at the assessment.
Do I need a prior assessment?
We recommend an assessment to confirm the treatment is suitable and define the protocol for your case.
Can I expect a specific result?
Results vary from person to person. We do not promise a specific result.
