Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a preparation of platelets in concentrated blood plasma with regenerative growth factors used to stimulate skin healing, collagen production, other important proteins that support the skin. We call it “Liquid Gold” for good reason! Not only is it all natural (it is your own blood) it is a concentrated source of cell and skin renewal. Essentially, blood is drawn from your arm and the platelets are then separated in test tubes using a centrifuge. These platelets are then injected into your skin to stimulate collagen production and bring nutrients to your skin, your own fountain of youth.
There are many clinical applications for PRP—it’s used for the treatment of hair loss, acne scars, surgical scars, stretch marks, pigmentation, volume loss, wrinkles, fine lines, and crepey skin texture.
