PRP PLASMA THERAPY
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a popular, non-surgical aesthetic treatment that utilizes the body's own blood to rejuvenate the skin and promote healing. PRP is extracted by drawing a small amount of blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and then injecting the resulting serum into targeted areas of the skin. The high concentration of growth factors in PRP stimulates collagen production, enhances skin texture, and improves overall skin tone. PRP is commonly used to treat fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and under-eye hollows, and is also used in hair restoration treatments to promote regrowth. Known for being a natural, minimally invasive procedure, PRP has gained popularity for its ability to refresh and rejuvenate the skin without the use of chemicals or synthetic materials.

how does it work?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) works by harnessing the body’s natural healing abilities to rejuvenate the skin, stimulate collagen production, and promote tissue repair. The process begins with a small blood draw from the patient, typically from the arm. The blood is then placed into a centrifuge, which spins it at high speeds to separate the components of the blood. This process isolates the plasma, which is rich in platelets, growth factors, and other healing proteins.
When injected back into targeted areas of the skin, such as the face, under-eyes, or scalp, the concentrated platelets release growth factors that stimulate the body's healing process. These growth factors help repair damaged skin, encourage the production of new collagen and elastin, and improve circulation, leading to smoother, more youthful skin and, in the case of hair restoration, the regrowth of hair follicles. Because PRP uses the body’s own cells, it’s considered a natural treatment with a low risk of allergic reactions or complications. The results typically improve over time as collagen production increases, making PRP an effective, minimally invasive option for skin rejuvenation and hair restoration.
