Plasma Rich Platelet
What is PRP?
Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) is converted into Platelet-rich Fibrin (PRF) with our easy in office treatment. PRP refers to platelets in plasma, where the platelet concentration is generally considered to be twice the normal concentration in whole blood. Platelets are known to release a variety of growth factors that respond to tissue injury. This stimulates a healing response and triggers the release of growth factors that regenerates collagen production to smooth out texture (lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores, and scars).
How is PRP used?
PRP is often combined with microneedling. Microneedling is an FDA-approved treatment for collagen stimulation in the skin. Puncturing the skin with tiny microscopic needles creates microchannels in the epidermal layer of the skin. This treatment stimulates a healing response and regeneration of collagen production to heal the microchannels. When PRP is applied to the skin during the microneedling treatment, it enhances the growth factor response to stimulate collagen. PRP used during the microneedling treatment will also speed up the healing process and recovery time.
PRP can also be injected into the skin to improve deep creases. Commonly injected areas are under the eyes, nasal labial folds (smile lines), and lip lines.
PRP is used for hair growth stimulation in men and women with thinning hair. Injecting PRP into the areas of thinning hair stimulates new hair growth and strengthens existing hair follicles. A series of four treatments is recommended, with a seasonal maintenance treatment. Our providers will evaluate each individual and customize a treatment plan including our in-office PRP injections, an at-home hair strengthening system, and clinically tested, 100% drug-free Nutrafol hair supplements.
The PRP Process:
- 1. A small amount of the patient’s own blood is drawn into a vacuum collection tube containing a cell separator gel.
- 2. The tube/tubes are then placed into a centrifuge and spun to separate the PRP from the blood.
- 3. The PRP is extracted from the tube and is ready to be used.
Benefits of PRP:
- Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
- Rejuvenate and plump sagging skin
- Soften deep creases
- Diminish scars and acne scars
- Improve overall complexion
- Stimulate hair growth and strengthen areas of thinning hair in men and women
