Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

What Is PRP?

• Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a high concentration of your own platelets in a small volume of plasma that contains growth factors and bio active proteins.
• Platelets are the body cells that help the tissues in healing and producing new cells.

How Is PRP Collected?

1. Small amount of blood is withdrawn from your forearm
2. This is spun in a centrifuge for 10 – 15 minutes. This separates the platelets from the other blood cells.
3. The concentrated platelets are then injected into the targeted areas – face and scalp.

How Does It Work?

The injected PRPs form an environment that aids in growing collagen, regenerates tissue making the skin smooth, even tone and tighter and on the scalp stimulates hair growth.

How long is the Procedure?

• PRP injections can be done as a stand-alone, thereby taking about 20 minutes.
• PRP can be done in combination with micro-needling or radioactive frequency for a more enhanced look hence this can take up to 1 hour.
