Platelet-Rich Plasma, also known as platelet-rich growth factors or platelet concentrate, is a concentrate of platelet-rich plasma protein derived from whole blood. After a quick blood draw, your blood will be spun in a centrifuge to isolate the PRP. The PRP is then delivered via injection to the required areas for regeneration. 

Platelets in the blood have an important job to promote healing. This is possible because of their growth factors and proteins that assist in regenerating cells in the body. The effectiveness of stimulating tissue regeneration depends on the concentration of platelets present in the plasma. And, it is a well-known fact that wound healing of damaged tissues depends on the platelet concentrations. PRP acts by nurturing those cells that can heal on their own or can augment the healing process by the resolution of damaged tissues. 

PRP injections can be used as an anti-aging treatment for skin rejuvenation, periorbital rejuvenation, and hair restoration. Because the treatments use a patient’s own tissues, PRP injections are safe and can be administered alone or used in conjunction with other procedures.

We recommend a series of four treatments, with optimal results being achieved at the 6-month mark. The recommended treatment schedule for PRP is once every month for 3-6 months or until your desired result is reached, with quarterly or yearly maintenance treatments thereafter. Since the PRP process is minimally invasive, the downtime is also minimal. Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided to allow your treatment area to heal most thoroughly.
