PRP stands for Platelet-Rich-Plasma, and is found naturally in your blood. Blood, in addition to red and white blood cells contains platelets, rich in growth factors and are the most potent healers of the body. Growth factors promote healing by restoring strength of the tissue.
Once blood is collected via a tube, it is processed at high speeds, resulting in a separation of the red blood cells from the plasma. This plasma has higher concentrations of platelets with growth and healing factors, which are then used to promote rejuvenation and increase collagen in skin, and increase local blood flow and stimulate follicles to grow healthier hair.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is plasma with 5-10 times more platelets than what is typically found in blood. We use your body's plasma in our treatment to help you achieve life changing results for your hair and skin.
