What is Platelet-Rich Plasma?
Platelet Rich Plasma (in PRP treatment) is relatively simple to obtain and the entire process can be done in-office in less than a half-hour. A small amount of blood is drawn from the patient and then spun in a sterile centrifuge. This separates the platelets – which comprise just a tiny percentage of the blood – from red and white blood cells. By isolating the platelets, you’re able to produce a highly-concentrated plasma. This is then injected into the area of skin being treated, releasing growth factors that recruit and increase reparative cells. Since platelet rich plasma is produced from your own blood, it is the ultimate in “natural” healing.
PRP treatment has amazing benefits when applied to the skin after microneedling or laser treatment or by directly injecting it into specific areas. Benefits include:
- Skin tightening and rejuvenation
- Boosting of collagen and elastin
- Enhancement of skin tone and texture
- Improvement of fine lines and wrinkles
- Reduction in the appearance of scars
PRP Treatment ( Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy) has been well-received by physicians and patients because it is safe and effective. PRP takes a small amount of your own blood, therefore there is no risk of disease transmission, rejection, or toxic reaction. This reduces the risk of infection and makes the procedure much less complicated to apply.
