Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a cutting-edge form of regenerative medicine that is becoming widely used for cosmetic therapy.
PRP uses your body's own natural pharmacy to repair and restore damaged tissues. Plasma contains molecules and proteins that provide nutrients to the skin’s cells, so it’s a healthy, natural way to improve the effects of aging.
As part of the body's healing ability, platelets and other components in human blood migrate to the point of care. Platelets are well known to release numerous growth factors that respond to tissue injury and initiate and promote the conditions for healing.
PRP is performed by drawing a small vial of blood from the patient. The blood is then spun in a centrifuge to separate the growth factors, platelets, and stem cells from the rest of the blood. Once this unique mixture is obtained, the enriched plasma is applied to the desired treatment areas.
What areas can be treated?
The most common conditions for PRP therapy include: facial rejuvenation, hair restoration, scar revision, dark circles under the eyes and acne scars.
How many treatments are needed to see results?
Because PRP depends on your body's own natural healing processes, the number of treatments are different from patient to patient. However, 3-4 treatments are usually recommended.
How long is the downtime?
There is minimal downtime with PRP treatments, usually less than 48 hours.
How long does it take?
The process takes 40-60 minutes depending on the size of the treatment area.
Is it safe?
PRP skin treatments are extremely safe because PRP is produced from your own blood.
