Regenerate Your Skin and Rejuvenate Skin Proteins
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy involves taking a small sample of your blood and spinning it for five minutes in a centrifuge to separate the plasma from the other blood particles. The PRP is then applied to the treatment area to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin.
It's All Natural
The platelet-rich plasma from your own blood is applied into the treatment area to boost collagen and elastin production.
Stimulate Collagen Production
PRP increases the formation of collagen and elastin, thickening and tightening the skin and effectively reducing wrinkles and fine lines.
Long-lasting Results
PRP treatments take three to four weeks to show results, but they last a long time, often 12 to 18 months after a three-treatment series.
What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy?
In PRP therapy, a patient's own blood is processed to concentrate the platelets and growth factors before being applied to the skin to encourage tissue healing and rejuvenation.
Is PRP therapy safe?
Since PRP therapy uses the patient's own blood and doesn't introduce any foreign substances into the body, it is regarded as safe. However, there may be some risks, such as infection or skin irritation, as with any medical procedure.
What skin conditions can be treated with PRP therapy?
A number of skin conditions, such as fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone, have been treated with PRP therapy. In addition, it can be used to encourage hair growth.
Does PRP therapy hurt?
Some people might feel some minor discomfort while the procedure is being done, but this can be controlled by applying a topical numbing cream.
How long does it take to see results from PRP therapy?
The skin needs time to heal and produce new collagen, so it may take several weeks to several months for PRP therapy results to become apparent. Depending on the individual's skin type and the desired results, a different number of treatments may be required.
What is the recovery time after PRP therapy?
After PRP therapy, the majority of people can resume their normal activities right away, though some redness and swelling may still occur. After the procedure, it is advised to stay out of the sun and avoid from strenuous activity for a few days.
