PRP – Platelet Rich Plasma

PRP contains 3 to 5 times higher concentration of platelets than whole blood. PRP is extremely rich in plasma proteins, growth factors and cytokines. 

Cytokines from macrophage induce wound healing and migration of regenerative cells to lesion resulting in regeneration. 

Platelets are derived from megakaryocytes and are important in haemostasis/ clotting. 

Platelets are normally activated during the inflammatory phase to begin healing.

Growth factors released by platelets recruit reparative cells and augment soft tissue repair.

Advantages of PRP therapy include

Autology- The product is obtained from your own blood, making it safe non- allergenic, and free from transmissible diseases. 

Faster healing- No fibrosis formation occurs in comparison to some long-term fillers. 

Ease of use- Dermal and hypodermal injections require one syringe and needle. 

Convenience- The treatment can be easily performed in a clinical workspace.
