PRP – the perfect way to boost collagen. Otherwise, known as the “Vampire Facial” is it scary or spooky? The answer to that question, no it’s not scary or spooky. And no, you don’t come away with blood all over your face. It is a simple three-step process and the results are clinically proven.
Firstly we numb the face using numbing cream – this can take approx 20 minutes.
While we have the numbing cream on we take your blood which then gets placed in a centrifuge which spins it till the plasma is separated from the blood itself, this is the liquid gold part-Platelet Rich Plasma
We use the tiniest of needles to infuse the Platelet Rich Plasma back into the skin. The tiny needles on their own can rejuvenate your skin, similar to having a needling procedure, with this type of procedure we are adding the platelet-rich plasma back into your skin. The tiny needles open the channels on our face to allow that nutrient filled plasma deep into the skin.
We massage the skin very gently with HA to moisturise your skin before leaving the clinic.
The Liquid PRP Facial — it’s what we all want our skin to look and feel like right?
Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
Leaves visibly smoother skin
Leaves younger and plumper skin
For the Liquid Gold PRP Facial, a minimum of three is recommended to see the desired results. The treatments can be done monthly for the most effective and more immediate results. For a more gradual process, they can be done three months to six months. Improvement in skin texture, tone and hydration are usually seen within the first weeks. Longer term results can be seen at around three months. Regular treatments between three to six months are most optimal for the best results. At Luxe Appearance, we typically treat areas around the eyes, around the mouth, full face, neck, and hands.
Fortunately, there is very little downtime with the PRP Treatment. On the day of your treatment, your face may be left red due to the needling. However, this will go down dramatically the next day and can then be covered if desired with makeup.
Unlike pictures or videos you may have seen – no your face will not be covered in blood leaving our clinic!

Most of us look in the mirror each day, and we notice things that bother us about our face. Often we do not know where to start in order to maintain or fix the things that bother us.
Instead of treating just areas, at Luxe Appearance we ask our clients to identify what they are looking to achieve in identifying with key phrases listed below.
Wedding skin SOS …hurry and evaluate your skincare routine. Many brides and grooms worry about their wedding diet but what about their skin diet? I know I personally worried about both. As with anything, the earlier you start the better. .
Let’s face it there is a lot of conflicting information on dermal fillers and cosmetic treatments. The emphasis appears on social media that having dermal filler or anti-wrinkle injections gives an over filled or frozen look. Many of these reflections on the media are merely reflections of distorted trends, that end up scaring people away from using the latest technologies to provide a natural refreshed look.

A luxurious salon with very professional staff and lots of smiles. I recommend the DMK Advance treatment my skin has never felt so good, thank you.

My very first visit to Luxe Appearance was a wonderful experience. Sarah is extremely talented in visualising where in my case Botox should be administered for a very natural result. One of the best results I have received after being a regular Botox user over the years. The salon is immaculate with a very professional and friendly atmosphere. I will definitely be back!
