How PRP Works
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an injection that uses concentrated plasma from your own blood to promote healing and improve the quality of your skin. This makes it an effective treatment in aesthetic procedures and in healing damaged tissue.
Higher concentrations of PRP allow for more effective and long-lasting treatments. In general, results can last anywhere from a few months to several years, making PRP one of the most effective non-surgical options for joint pain, tears, and conditions like osteoarthritis.
Who Can Benefit From PRP Injections?
People suffering from degenerative conditions or other joint problems are ideal candidates, as are those looking for an effective aesthetic treatment for their face, breast, and hair. Most people can be a good candidate if they’re looking for the following benefits:
Tissue Repair
PRP’s regenerative properties help heal tissue that was damaged due to injury or other events.
Improved Joint Function
By reducing the effects of conditions like osteoarthritis and other degenerative joint conditions, PRP can help improve the function of your joints.
Restore Joint Health
PRP restores tissue damaged by conditions like osteoarthritis, improving and restoring joint health in those suffering from the effects of age and other conditions.
Aesthetic Treatments
PRP improves skin quality by reducing wrinkles and tightening the skin. It is an excellent option for undereye bags and dark circles. For hair growth, PRP can activate dormant follicles for a fuller, more vibrant head of hair. PRP can also be used for a non-surgical breast lift providing a potential of 1-2 cup sizes as well.
The PRP Process
Step 1: Blood Draw
Blood is drawn from the patient. The material must come from your own blood in order for the process to work.
Step 2: The Components of the Blood Are Separated
Your blood is placed in a centrifuge to separate the plasma, platelets, and blood cells. PRP injections use only the platelet-rich plasma.
Step 3: The Plasma Is Filtered
Once separated, the plasma is further filtered. This filtration process concentrates the platelet-rich plasma.
Step 4: Injection
The concentrated plasma is injected into the target area, where it stimulates healing by jumpstarting the body’s repair response through short-term inflammation or by stimulating collagen and elastin production.
What Conditions Does It Treat?
Osteoarthritis
This degenerative disease occurs when the cartilage between your joints wears down, causing bones to grind against each other during movement and leading to severe pain. PRP injections stimulate tissue growth, helping restore lost cartilage and potentially slow the progression of arthritis.
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Unlike osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease that causes the body to mistakenly attack its own tissues, breaking down the lining of your joints and potentially causing joint deformity. PRP helps restore damaged tissue to stave off the effects of the condition.
Degenerative Disc Disease
Aging can wear down the discs in your spine and neck, causing lost flexibility, body pain, and even reduced sensation. PRP’s ability to stimulate healing and restore damaged tissue makes it an effective weapon against degenerative disc diseases.
Tears
PRP can be used to treat tears to the supporting structures of the joints like knees, shoulders, and hips. It is highly effective as a non-surgical option to repair these injuries.
