PRP (Platelet-rich plasma)

---

Platlet-Rich Plasma, or PRP, consists of two elements: plasma, or the liquid portion of blood, and platelets, a type of blood cell that plays an important role in healing throughout your body. 

PRP treatment is a step-by-step therapeutic process where the provider draw’s the patient’s blood, concentrates the platelets, and then injects them into the area. Platelets contain growth factors and other proteins that stimulate tissue repair and reduce inflammation, which promotes the healing of many skin conditions.

The treatment can improve skin texture and tone, reduce fine lines and scarring, and stimulate collagen and skin cell production for a plumper, more radiant complexion. Additionally, PRP injections can be used to fight hair loss and thinning hair.

Microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), is an innovative aesthetic procedure that combines platelet rich plasma with microneedling performed on a patient’s face but can be performed on any body area needing resurface or improvement in appearance. 

Your provider injects this powerful PRP solution into the targeted treatment areas of your face. There, the PRP solution gets to work stimulating your body’s natural healing processes and encouraging the production of collagen and elastin, proteins that are key in rejuvenating the appearance of your skin.

PRP injections can be effective in treating hair loss and thinning hair, both in preventing hair loss and promoting new hair growth. PRP can also aid in the stimulation of hair growth after hair transplants.
