How PRP Therapy Works
An initial blood draw is required for PRP therapy. The blood is placed in a specialized machine that separates platelet-rich plasma from other components. Hundreds of growth factors is present in this PRP, and these growth factors are responsible for stimulating collagen and cellular renewal. Once prepared, the PRP is carefully injected into the target areas. Your body’s natural healing process is stimulated, resulting in collagen production and tissue repair. This helps to improve skin texture, tone, and elasticity. PRP for rejuvenation is commonly used to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging, offering a non-surgical solution for a youthful appearance.
