In Detail
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses a concentrated preparation of a patient's own platelets, separated from a small blood draw through centrifugation. Platelets contain growth factors that play a central role in tissue healing, and the concentrated preparation is then injected into the area being treated.
PRP is used across several clinical areas: musculoskeletal conditions such as tendinopathies, partial ligament injuries, and certain joint conditions; aesthetic applications including facial rejuvenation; and hair restoration in androgenetic alopecia. Treatment protocols vary by application and patient.
Because PRP uses the patient's own biological material, the risk profile is favorable. The clinical response varies — some patients see meaningful benefit, others see less — and we set expectations accordingly during the consultation.
