PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is a medical treatment that uses a patient’s own blood to promote healing and rejuvenation. It involves drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and then re-injecting the resulting platelet-rich plasma into specific areas of the body to stimulate healing, tissue regeneration, and collagen production.
PRP therapy works by concentrating the body's natural growth factors, which then activate the healing process and rejuvenate tissues in the treated area. Whether it’s for skin, hair, joints, or other therapeutic uses, the body's own platelets are harnessed to enhance healing, reduce inflammation, and promote regeneration, giving you a natural, non-surgical solution for various conditions.
Hair Restoration:PRP therapy is commonly used in hair restoration treatments to combat hair thinning or loss. The growth factors in the PRP stimulate hair follicles, promote hair growth, and help thicken existing hair. This is particularly useful in treating conditions like androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness).
Skin Rejuvenation (Facial Aesthetic Treatments):PRP therapy can improve skin texture, tone, and elasticity. It is used to treat fine lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity, often in combination with other treatments like microneedling. This process is sometimes referred to as a "vampire facial", where PRP is applied to the skin after microneedling to enhance collagen production and rejuvenate the skin.
Joint and Tendon Healing:PRP is also used for orthopedic purposes to promote healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles, or joints. It is often used in cases of chronic tendonitis, knee osteoarthritis, and ligament injuries to speed up the healing process and reduce pain and inflammation.
Wound Healing:PRP therapy can enhance the healing of chronic wounds, such as diabetic ulcers, surgical wounds, and burns, by stimulating tissue regeneration and accelerating the body’s natural healing response.
FAQs
PRP therapy is considered safe because it uses your own blood, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or transmission of diseases. However, like any medical treatment, it should be performed by a trained professional to ensure proper technique and safety.
The procedure typically takes about 45 minutes to an hour. This includes the time for blood collection, processing in the centrifuge, and the injections.
PRP therapy is minimally invasive, with most patients experiencing little to no downtime. You may experience mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, but this usually resolves within a few days.
The number of sessions depends on your individual goals and the condition being treated. For hair restoration, 3-4 treatments spaced a few weeks apart may be recommended. For skin rejuvenation, 2-3 treatments may be suggested. Maintenance treatments can be done annually or semi-annually.
Results vary by individual and the area being treated. For skin rejuvenation, improvements in texture and tone may be visible within a few weeks. Hair restoration results typically appear after 3-6 months. Full results may take up to a year.
PRP therapy is generally safe, but some temporary side effects may include redness, swelling, bruising, or mild discomfort at the injection site. These effects usually resolve within a few days.
