PRP is blood plasma with concentrated platelets. The concentrated platelets contain growth factors that are vital to initiate and accelerate tissue repair and regeneration.
These bioactive proteins initiate connective tissue healing and repair, promote development of new blood vessels and stimulate the healing process.
PRP Treatment is a cosmetic injectable treatment using the client's own platelet rich plasma. A small amount of blood is taken from the patient, usually the arm. The blood is then processed with the use of a centrifuge which seperates the Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) from the other blood components. This PRP is then injected into the client's skin to accelerate the natural production of collagen and elastin within the body consequently providing overall skin rejuvenation. Thus harnessing the natural healing power of our blood.
PRP also helps to counteract various skin conditions such as uneven skin tone, rough skin and acne scars. The production of collagen and elastin fibres can diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles to give a more youthful appearance.
PRP is often used in conjunction with other treatments such as facial lifts and dermal fillers.
