Acne scars can be a lasting reminder of breakouts long gone. Many people in Dubai struggle with scars that affect not just their skin, but their confidence as well. If you’ve tried creams or laser treatments with limited success, there’s good news — PRP therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma) offers a natural and effective way to restore smoother, healthier-looking skin.

At Dr. Rami Hamed Center (DRHC) in Dubai, PRP for acne scars is a popular treatment that uses your body’s own healing power to repair and rejuvenate damaged skin — safely, naturally, and with minimal downtime.

What Is PRP Therapy and How Does It Work?

PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma, a concentrated form of your own blood plasma that contains powerful growth factors and healing proteins. During the treatment, a small sample of your blood is taken and spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelets from the red blood cells.

This golden-colored plasma is then gently injected or micro-needled into the areas with acne scars, where it stimulates new collagen and elastin production. Over time, this helps to smooth uneven texture, minimize scar depth, and improve overall skin tone and firmness.

Because PRP comes from your own body, it’s a biocompatible and natural treatment, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or side effects.

Benefits of PRP for Acne Scars

Patients in Dubai choose PRP therapy for acne scars because it offers both visible results and a gentle recovery process.

Key benefits include:

• Improved skin texture and reduced scar depth
• Stimulation of collagen and tissue regeneration
• Natural, gradual improvement without chemicals or fillers
• Minimal downtime with lasting results
• Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin

At DRHC Dubai, each PRP session is personalized to match your skin’s specific needs, ensuring safe and effective results.

What to Expect During a PRP Session at DRHC Dubai

We understand that the idea of any skin treatment — especially one involving needles — can cause concern. That’s why our approach focuses on comfort, safety, and clear communication at every step.

Here’s what a typical PRP treatment involves:

1. Consultation: A detailed skin assessment is performed to determine whether PRP is right for you.
2. Preparation: A small amount of blood is drawn, usually from your arm, and processed in a centrifuge.
3. Application: The PRP is either injected or applied using micro-needling across the scarred areas to trigger natural healing.
4. Aftercare: You may experience mild redness or sensitivity for a day or two, similar to a light sunburn.

Most sessions last about 45–60 minutes, and patients can typically return to their normal routine soon after.

Results: What You Can Expect

PRP therapy works gradually, allowing your skin to rebuild itself from within. Most patients notice visible improvement after 2–3 sessions, with full results appearing over the next few months as collagen production increases.

The skin becomes smoother, scars appear softer, and the overall complexion looks more even and rejuvenated. Many people describe their results as a healthy, natural glow rather than an artificial change.
