PRP- Platelet-Rich Plasma
A powerful regenerative treatment that works by healing and rejuvenating the skin, stimulating collagen production, and encouraging natural hair growth from within.
WHAT IS PRp?
We all have platelets in our blood. PRP is 3-step procedure that involves having your blood:
Drawn from your arm
Placed into a machine that separates the platelets from the rest of your blood
Re-injected into you (only the part of your blood that contains a high concentration of platelets).
For years Orthopedic surgeons use PRP to help athletes recover more quickly after an injury.
PRP is a great treatment for hair loss, to speed up wound healing, joint pain, arthritis and for the face for younger-looking skin.
If you have PRP to treat signs of aging on your skin, here’s what to expect:
Blood drawn: You would have a small amount of blood (about 2 to 4 tablespoons) drawn from your arm.
Blood taken to lab: The test tube containing your blood would be placed in a medical device called a centrifuge, which separates your blood into layers. One of these layers contains a high concentration of platelets.
Blood injected: we then inject the blood that contains the high concentration of platelets into your face or scalp, using a syringe or microneedling (device that looks like a lint roller with tiny needles sticking out of it).
The entire procedure takes about 45 minutes to one hour.
