PRP and How its administered
From treating sports injuries and sexual dysfunctions to hair loss and cosmetics, PRP injections, or platelet rich plasma injections are gaining popularity as a safe, non-invasive, non-surgical procedure that takes a healthy and natural approach to regenerative healing.
The procedure begins with a quick blood draw from your own body. After spinning in a centrifuge, the key components—growth factors and platelets—are separated out and then injected back into the area in need of repair. The growth factors obtained stimulate platelets and stem cells to do their work in rebuilding, restoring and rejuvenating body tissue, allowing patients to experience amazing results. Once this restorative, highly concentrated mixture is obtained, it is then injected into the area being treated. Platelets are like tiny messengers that alert stem cells when tissue damage has occurred, which helps to promote healthy regeneration. Meanwhile, stem cells can transform into any type of cell needed to rebuild tissue, which reduces swelling, pain, and other symptoms associated with an injury.
PRP therapy also stimulates collagen production to reduce wrinkles, improve skin and reduce or slow signs of aging.
