What is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)?
Platelets are blood cell fragments rich in growth factors. Platelets can be drawn from a patient’s own blood and concentrated. This is called platelet rich plasma or PRP.
PRP For Hair Loss
The Academy of International Regenerative Medicine & Surgery Societies now recommends the use of PRP for BOTH male and female pattern hair loss.
There are now numerous studies that demonstrates the efficacy of regenerative medicine therapies for men and women. PRP can be injected into the skin, below the skin and into the scalp. This can stimulate new tissue production, such as collagen – a key protein found our skin, and soft tissue. PRP can activate our own stem cells to become more active. PRP can also stimulate our hair follicles. PRP for hair loss can be done by a simple blood draw and then injection into the scalp. This is done and takes about 60 minutes. No surgery is involved.
PRP For Facial Rejuvenation
Several studies have demonstrated improvement in skin texture, wrinkles, complexion/skin tone and ultraviolet (sun) spots. PRP can be injected below the skin. This can stimulate new tissue production, such as collagen – a key protein found our skin, which we gradually lose has we age. PRP can be done alone or can combined with other treatments, such as hyaluronic acid injections. PRP for facial rejuvenation can be done by a simple blood draw and injection under the skin in the office within 60-90 minutes. No surgery is involved.
