What is PRP Therapy?

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) or also known as Stem Cell Therapy is an injection treatment that uses the components of a person’s own blood to stimulate repair.  Platelets are very small cells in your blood that are involved in the clotting process.

When PRP is injected into the damaged area it causes a mild inflammation that triggers the healing cascade. As the platelets organize in the tissue they release a number of enzymes to promote healing and restoration of tissue and make collagen an extracellular matrix, which are important components of healthy, youthful skin.

 

Aesthetic PRP Injection for Face and Skin Rejuvenation

PRP is used to improve wrinkles and other signs of aging by naturally stimulating your fibroblasts to produce collagen and other extracellular matrix skin components that are diminished or damaged over time as a result of aging among other factors.

Natural production of new collagen and dermal matrix components cannot keep up with age and sun damage related changes.

PRP is a safe and natural process since it uses your own blood plasma cells and growth factors to stimulate new collagen in the targeted areas of concern, where we want your skin to repair and rejuvenate itself.

Aesthetic/cosmetic PRP indications include wrinkles, folds, face contours and reliefs, acne and other scars, or to increase volume where deemed necessary.

PRP can be used topically (e.g. after micro needling or fractional or full field laser resurfacing) or injected under the skin. PRP is usually used on the face, neck, décolletage (chest), scalp and hands, but may be used anywhere needed.

 

Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy for Chronic Injuries

Oxygen motivated PRP stem cell injection therapy for patients with acute and chronic injuries of muscle, tendon, ligaments, bone, and cartilage, degenerative joint problems and sports injuries love this treatment.

The oxygen component takes PRP Stem Cell Injection Therapy to a whole new level of healing.

Using your own blood platelets and stem cells to induce regeneration of tissues such as joint cartilage, combined with a unique pre-and post-injection treatment protocol, the benefits are potently enhanced, and healing is significantly accelerated.

PRP precisely injected is capable of regenerating damaged tissue including knee problems such as arthritis, knee or meniscus tears and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears, shoulder injuries like rotator cuff tears, arthritis, and labral tears, spine problems, such as disc herniations and spine arthritis, hip, hands, feet, and elbow problems.

Stem cells are amazing in that they can transform destructive cells into helpful repair cells. Add to this the oxygen component and you have an unparalleled opportunity for healing.

Stem cell therapy for knees has been widely used and brings relief.
