PRP is the healing power in our own blood

SLATER AESTHETIC & CENTER FOR ANTI-AGING OFFERS PRP THERAPY FOR VARIOUS ANTI-AGING AND COSMETIC PROCEDURES.

Platelet Rich Plasma is the “Healing Power” within our blood. We harvest it by drawing blood, using a centrifuge to separate the PRP from the rest of the blood cells, all within a few minutes. Although blood is mainly a liquid (called plasma), it also contains small solid components (red cells, white cells, and platelets.) The platelets are best known for their importance in clotting blood. However, platelets also contain hundreds of proteins called growth factors which are very important in the healing of injuries.

PRP is plasma with many more platelets than what is typically found in blood. The concentration of platelets — and, thereby, the concentration of growth factors — can be 5 to 10 times greater (or richer) than usual. PRP has 8 growth factors and is the Magic within our blood.

To develop a PRP preparation, blood must first be drawn from a patient. The platelets are separated from other blood cells in a centrifuge and their concentration is increased during this process. Then the increased concentration of platelets is combined with the remaining blood.

HOW DOES PRP WORK?

Although it is not exactly clear how PRP works, laboratory studies have shown that the increased concentration of growth factors in PRP can speed up the healing process. It is known to increase collagen productions, tighten skin, reduce pore size, and improve texture of skin and plumping skin in the area of treatment.

To speed healing, the site is treated with the PRP preparation. This can be done in one of two ways: PRP can be carefully injected into the injured area. For example, in Achilles tendinitis, a condition commonly seen in runners and tennis players, the heel cord can become swollen, inflamed, and painful. A mixture of PRP and local anesthetic can be injected directly into this inflamed tissue. Afterwards, the discomfort at the area of injection may actually increase for the first few days and it may be a couple of weeks before the patient feels a beneficial effect. On the other hand we are getting many reports from patients stating that they are feeling the benefits almost immediately.

PRP may also be used to improve healing and shorten healing time before and after surgery. Neograft Hair Restoration is often combined with PRP Scalp Therapy prior to the procedure. PRP can increase circulation and therefore can be very helpful in the healing process of hair grafts. It is recommended to treat the scalp 3-4 weeks before the procedure and repeat 6-8 month after Hair Restoration. When Hair-Loss is caused by stress, or Hormonal imbalance, sometimes the PRP can be the perfect solution, along with a prescription for hair loss medicine, LaserCap for home use and NeoLTS treatment available in the office. PRP is also being used to promote Hair Growth and Hair Regrowth as an alone standing procedure for women and men suffering from thinning hair. Athletes have utilized PRP for joint injuries for years. PRP is also a powerful and effective addition to Anti-Aging and Cosmetic Procedures and is often combined with Fat Transfer procedures to enhance outcome. This can be done via Micro-Needling with the Eclipse Micro Needling Pen, or by injecting the PRP in the desired area.
