Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is an innovative, non-surgical treatment that uses the patient’s own blood growth factors to stimulate healing, rejuvenate tissues, and enhance recovery. By concentrating platelets, cytokines, and growth factors, PRP accelerates natural repair processes in skin, hair, joints, and muscles.

How Does PRP Work?

1. Blood Draw – A small sample of the patient’s blood is collected.
2. Centrifugation – The blood is spun to separate platelet-rich plasma from other components.
3. Injection/Application – The concentrated PRP is injected or applied to the target area to promote collagen production, tissue repair, and cell regeneration.
