This results in a more youthful appearance with reduced sagging and increased volume in key areas of the face. PRP is a safe and minimally invasive procedure, as it uses the patient's own blood, reducing the risk of adverse reactions. Furthermore, PRP provides long-lasting results, making it an effective solution for restoring facial volume and rejuvenating the skin's overall appearance.

The following is a quote from the TGA discussing why advertising restrictions have been imposed on the cosmetic industry.
Referring to cosmetic injectables in advertising
"
The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has updated its guidance on advertising cosmetic injectables to ensure advertising rules are applied consistently across all industries that deal with therapeutic goods.
Historically, the TGA has allowed indirect references to prescription medicines to be referenced in advertisements related to cosmetic health services. This was allowed only in the context of promoting the service and only by using generic non-product specific terms such as ‘wrinkle reducing injections.’ Express references to products or ingredients themselves, such as ‘Botox’ or ‘botulinum toxin’, were not permitted. The TGA considered this a pragmatic approach which would allow cosmetic clinics who offered these services to differentiate themselves from those that did not.
Recently, the TGA has observed that clinics and health services in other industry areas are advertising the availability of prescription medicines, usually by referring to a class of goods (for example ‘weight loss injections’, ‘medicinal cannabis’ or ‘nicotine vaping products’). The TGA has interpreted that promoting a health service in this way is also an advertisement for a therapeutic good that refers to prescription medicines, which is unlawful.
To resolve any inconsistency in interpretation across industry areas, the TGA no longer permits references to terms such as ‘wrinkle reducing injections’ or 'dermal fillers' where those terms would result in a reasonable consumer understanding the intention of the content is to promote the use or supply of a prescription medicine.
The revised guidance on advertising cosmetic injectables is now available on the TGA website at Advertising health services. This material reinforces that the legislation itself regarding cosmetic injectables has not changed, and advertising the use or supply of prescription medicines, including most cosmetic injectable products (as opposed to services), has never been compliant with the therapeutic goods framework. This includes through use of testimonials, claims about the goods, before and after photos, or price lists.
The update aligns with the focus of other regulators on health professionals performing non-surgical cosmetic procedures and acknowledges the increasing vulnerability of Australians influenced by advertising in the cosmetic space. Prescription only medications carry higher risks than goods available for self-selection. Decisions about treatments that involve the use of prescription medicines should only be made by a health professional in consultation with each individual patient.
Consistent with the TGA’s approach to compliance, we will seek high levels of voluntary compliance by engaging with and educating industry in the first instance and will run industry information sessions in the coming months.
We expect industry to take prompt steps to review their existing advertising of cosmetic injectables to bring it into line with the new guidance. "
AHPRA have published a fact sheet on their website;
Supporting a safe choice about cosmetic injectables
"
You are entitled to safe cosmetic services. This factsheet includes information about cosmetic injectables, also known as anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers. It can help you understand some of the potential risks and what to look out for if you are considering a cosmetic procedure and where to go if something goes wrong.
No matter how simple it may seem, every cosmetic procedure or surgery carries risk. Even if you’ve had a procedure before, it’s important that you think carefully about your decision every time. If you decide that a cosmetic procedure or cosmetic surgery is for you – be safe first. Know which questions to ask and what to look out for, so you can make an informed decision.
Before going ahead think about:
- the people involved in the procedure
- the product they are using, and
- where the procedure is taking place.
Cosmetic injectables and how they work
The two main types of injectable substances used are:
- botulinum toxin type A (sometimes known as ‘Botox’), which temporarily paralyses the facial muscles that cause wrinkles, and
- dermal fillers, which plump out wrinkles or other parts of the face.
These types of injectables are prescription only medicines (schedule 4 medicines). This means that only authorised registered health practitioners can prescribe them."
