An individual approach to skin and hair

PRP treatment using your own blood in Berlin

PRP treatment uses processed plasma from your own blood. It may be considered for selected skin concerns and certain types of hair loss. I first investigate the cause and discuss with you what PRP may contribute in your case. It does not replace a surgical lift or an established treatment for hair loss.

Understanding what changes

Your own plasma
with a clear goal

PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma, meaning plasma with a high concentration of platelets. After blood is taken, the sample is processed and the resulting material is introduced into the planned areas. Platelets release signalling substances involved in tissue responses.

The principle behind the treatment
  1. Collection

    A small blood sample

    Taking a blood sample provides the source material for subsequent processing.

  2. Processing

    Separating the plasma

    The procedure concentrates certain blood components; the composition depends on the method used.

  3. Follow-up

    Measuring progress

    Skin condition or changes in hair are documented over a suitable period.

This principle explains the treatment. An examination in person determines which steps are medically appropriate.
How I plan the treatment

The term vampire lift suggests a tightening procedure, but it does not describe a surgical lift. PRP neither removes excess skin nor replaces lost volume in the way a filler does. I therefore discuss a specific skin goal with you rather than promise an overall rejuvenating effect.

The composition of the plasma depends on the processing method used. Studies and treatment protocols also differ. Evidence for skin rejuvenation is limited; for certain types of hereditary hair loss, PRP may be an additional option. Responses vary from person to person and do not mean that new hair growth is assured.

Blood collection, processing and sterile injection are all part of the procedure. Clotting disorders, relevant blood count abnormalities, infections and medication are taken into account beforehand. Even using your own material does not automatically make an injection risk-free.

Progress over time matters more than the day of treatment. Any changes in skin or hair are assessed against the goal agreed beforehand. PRP guarantees neither tightening nor an end to hair loss.

01 / A closer lookFor hair loss, diagnosis comes first

A receding hairline, diffuse hair loss and inflammatory scalp conditions are different situations. A dermatological assessment may be needed before PRP. We also clarify which established treatments are already being used and whether an additional treatment makes sense.

02 / A closer lookPlanning combinations carefully

Combining PRP with microneedling can be discussed depending on your skin findings. This does not automatically increase the effect and changes the demands of treatment, aftercare and costs. Each procedure needs its own clear, justifiable goal.

Is this right for me?

Who the treatment
may be suitable for

Your wishes are the starting point. I assess whether the findings, your health and the expected benefit align.

A possible option

When treatment may be suitable

A clearly defined skin concern may be suitable for PRP following an examination.

What else matters
  • For certain types of hair loss, additional treatment is possible once the cause has been clarified.
  • You can allow for several appointments and follow-up reviews over weeks to months.
A closer look

What needs to be clarified first

Significant excess skin, deep volume deficits or bald, scarred areas cannot be reliably corrected with this treatment.

What else matters
  • The cause of hair loss should be clarified before a course of treatment.
  • Significant blood or clotting disorders or active infections may make PRP unsuitable.

Different causes call for different solutions. Sometimes deciding not to have a procedure is the right choice.

Your treatment journey

Treatment and aftercare
with personal support

  1. 01PreparationClarifying the cause and goal

    I examine your skin or scalp, and we discuss pre-existing conditions, medication and previous treatments.

    • Bring any existing findings relating to hair loss
    • Check blood clotting and blood count if needed
    • Agree on a treatment course and criteria for success
  2. 02TreatmentTaking blood and processing the plasma

    Following preparation, the processed plasma is injected into the planned areas. Local pain relief is an option.

    • Sterile procedure
    • Processing your own blood without added products, according to the method used
    • Document the area and response
  3. 03AftercareMonitoring progress

    Aftercare depends on the area and the skin's response. Decisions about further treatment are based on tolerability and progress.

    • Avoid irritating skincare initially
    • Take a break from heat, sun exposure and exercise as advised
    • Compare progress over several weeks

We agree on how to contact me directly for aftercare before you leave. General enquiries: team@dottore.caletti.de.

Returning to your daily routine

Recovery and aftercare
with personal support

On the day of treatmentProtect the injection sites

Mild redness, swelling and tenderness are possible.

In the first few daysAllow skin and scalp to settle

Care and activity are adjusted to the response; visible bruising may last longer.

After weeks to monthsReview the goal

Changes in hair require a longer observation period. If there is no benefit, the treatment strategy is reassessed.

These timeframes are a guide, not a firm promise. Your individual progress may differ.

Speaking openly about risks

Risks and limitations
considered together

Even an outpatient treatment can have unwanted effects. Individual risks, a suitable indication and an achievable goal all form part of the decision.

Typical effects and reactions

  • Pain during blood collection and injection
  • Redness, swelling and bruising
  • Temporary sensitivity of the treated skin

Possible complications

  • Infections at blood collection or injection sites
  • Persistent irritation or an unwanted local reaction
  • No benefit despite a course of treatment
These warning signs need immediate help

Increasing redness with warmth, severe pain, pus or fever require prompt medical examination. If you experience difficulty breathing, circulatory collapse or other severe acute symptoms, call 112.

Frequently asked questions:
PRP / autologous blood treatment

A website can offer guidance. We discuss your personal situation during your medical consultation.

Ask your question
01

Is PRP the same as a lift?

No. PRP is a treatment using your own blood. It does not remove skin or reposition sagging tissue as a surgical lift does.

02

Will PRP stop my hair loss?

This cannot be promised. The cause is investigated first. For certain types of hair loss, PRP may be considered as an additional treatment; other conditions require a different approach.

03

Why is my own blood used?

The blood sample provides the plasma and the platelets it contains. The material used is processed, rather than the untreated blood sample.

04

Is a single treatment enough?

This depends on the indication and the goal. A course involving several appointments is often planned. Before starting, we discuss the likely overall extent of treatment and review whether continuing is worthwhile.

05

Can PRP replace a hyaluronic acid filler?

Generally not where there is a clear volume deficit. Plasma and hyaluronic acid gel have different properties and treatment goals.

06

How much does PRP / autologous blood treatment cost in Berlin?

Costs start from €400. Price basis: PRP treatment · per session. The starting price applies to one PRP session for the agreed area. It does not automatically cover a full course, combined scalp and skin treatments or additional microneedling. You will receive your personal cost plan before making a decision.
