Platelet Rich Plasma or PRP has been used in the medical field for decades to promote healing. PRP therapy is a safe and effective treatment that can be used to improve the beauty and condition of your skin. Whether its softening wrinkles, improving sagging skin, or getting rid of sun damage and scars, PRP treatments can offer rejuvenating effects for aging skin.
How Does It Work?
PRP is derived from the blood and does not include any outside chemicals. The process begins by removing a small vile of blood where the plasma from the red blood cells is separated and used to create concentrated levels of platelets. Since platelet-rich plasma is sourced from your own body, there is little to no risk of allergic reactions or negative side effects. Once collected, the PRP is injected into the targeted areas. PRP works by promoting healing and increased collagen in your skin. As the skin heals, it is restored to a more youthful state with improved volume, texture, and elasticity.
Advantages Of PRP Therapy
Increased Collagen Production
As stated previously, PRP therapy increases the production of collagen in the skin, but what does this mean exactly? As we age and mature, our bodies produce less and less collagen, which leads to brittle, thinner skin. If new skin growth is created quickly, it contains more collagen resulting in more youthful-looking skin. This is a huge advantage PRP therapy has over most other skin rejuvenation treatments.
Simple Procedure
Some forms of skin rejuvenation treatments can be rather complicated and painful. Facelifts, deep chemical peels, and laser surgery are all types of treatments that can involve long recovery periods. However, after PRP therapy the patient can resume normal, everyday activities right away. The injection is a simple procedure that takes minutes and doesn’t leave patients with any recovery periods.
It’s Natural
There are no pharmaceutical chemicals used in PRP therapy. The body responds to the addition of concentrated amounts of blood platelets the same as it would have if an injury had occurred. This rejuvenation process is therefore natural and accelerated. Since the PRP comes directly from your own blood, there is no risk of platelet or plasma rejection. It’s the easiest and safest form of treatment for aging skin, and your body won’t respond negatively to the treatment.
Long-Lasting Results
One of the greatest advantages of this treatment is that while it only takes a few minutes to complete, the results are long-lasting. Many people report satisfactory results lasting for over a year after just one or two treatment sessions.
