A small amount of blood is drawn from the client and spun in a centrifuge so that concentrated amounts of platelets are combined with a small amount of plasma. This combination is then carefully injected into the skin in the areas you would like to treat.

Benefits of PRP Therapy

When compared to other types of cosmetic skin treatment procedure, there are some main advantages of PRP therapy.

1) Naturally-Induced Rejuvenation

There are no pharmaceutical chemicals, strong acids or plumping agents used in PRP therapy. The body responds to the introduction of concentrated amounts of blood platelets the same as it would had an injury occurred. The rejuvenation process is therefore natural yet accelerated.

2) A Simple Outpatient Procedure

Some types of skin rejuvenation procedures are rather complicated. A facelift, deep chemical peel, or laser surgery can involve a long recovery period. After PRP therapy, the client can resume normal activities at once.

3) Increased Collagen Production

As we age and mature, our bodies produce less collagen, which is what makes our skin become brittle, thinner and subject to wrinkling. If new skin growth is created quickly, it contains more collagen, the result being more youthful-looking skin. This is a huge advantage PRP therapy has over most other skin rejuvenation treatments.

4) Long-Lasting Results

While the treatment itself takes just a few minutes to complete, the results are long-lasting. Many people report satisfactory results lasting for more than one year after just one or two treatment sessions. If you choose multiple treatments, your results will last even longer.

5) No Risk of Contamination

PRP therapy uses nothing more than your own blood, meaning that there is no risk of platelet or plasma rejection. The body won’t respond to the introduction of PRP beneath the skin in a negative way.

These are just a few of the advantages of PRP therapy. This treatment is becoming more and more popular because of the increasing number of positive feedback comments from clients.
