PRP Therapy

"

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a treatment that has been widely used in orthopedics to support the natural healing process in joints, soft tissues, tendons, and ligaments. In recent years, PRP has also gained recognition in dermatology for its potential to enhance skin rejuvenation and support hair growth.

What is PRP Therapy?

PRP therapy involves taking a small sample of your blood, which is then processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets. These platelets are rich in bioactive proteins and growth factors, often referred to as "liquid gold," due to their role in supporting tissue repair and regeneration.

Applications of PRP Therapy

  • Skin Rejuvenation: PRP can be applied to the skin, particularly after treatments like microneedling or laser procedures, to enhance the skin's appearance by promoting a more youthful and revitalized look.
  • Hair Restoration: PRP has been shown in dermatology studies to support hair follicle activity, which can help in the treatment of hair thinning or hair loss. The concentrated platelets are injected into the scalp to support hair growth.
  • Joint and Tendon Health: PRP therapy can also be injected into joints and tendons to support the body’s natural healing processes, offering an additional option for patients seeking relief from certain orthopedic conditions.
