Platelet rich plasma involves drawing a patient’s blood and utilizing growth factors within the blood to help accelerate healing, enhance collagen production and minimize downtime when combined with other modalities. This autologous approach harvests the power of your own blood. Blood is drawn and the red blood cells are separated from the plasma. Platelet-Rich-Plasma (PRP) contains a high concentration of platelets, stem cells and growth factors. This can be used topically in conjunction with microneedling to help accelerate the healing process and enhance results. It can also be injected in a variety of places to help with skin rejuvenation or hair loss. Common areas of injection include under the eyes to help with dark circles, or in the scalp to promote hair growth.
