What is PRP and why we use it?

PRP or Platelet-rich Plasma Therapy has become a very popular and beneficial treatment over the past few years. The treatment is meant to rejuvenate the skin and promotes new cell growth of the skin. Apart from using on the facial skin, PRP has effective results in the cases of hair loss, acute injuries and osteoarthritis.  For PRP therapy, blood is extracted and spun in a centrifuge and injected back into the skin of patient.

PRP Technique

The basic PRP procedure is performed in three simple steps i.e., the blood withdrawal, separation of blood plasma and finally injecting that platelet-rich plasma in the desired area. As the patient’s own blood is the major component of PRP solution, so this treatment modality has no side-affects to the patient’s body. The procedure roughly takes about an hour to complete.

After the session, one might experience slight redness and swelling across the face but there is nothing to worry about as it will fade away in a few days.

The PRP solution contains proteins and special growth factors, so it promotes blood clotting

And enhance the cell growth in the injected site. In the case of Hair Loss Treatment, the specialists extract the patient’s blood; it is converted to PRP solution and injected in the desired location of scalp. This assists in cell growth and promotion of hair growth.
