What is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)?
Platelet Rich Therapy (PRP) is a non-surgical and natural treatment that uses your own healing abilities to assist follicle and stimulate recovery. PRP involves drawing blood from you, then spinning this in a medical grade centrifuge, separating the platelets and then re-injecting them into your skin through micro needling.
Platelet Rich Therapy (PRP)
PRP has a variety of uses in medical fields. It is used in both dermatological and aesthetic practices for facial and neck rejuvenation, lines and wrinkles as well as stretch marks and scars.
At Euphoria Medical Center© we offer PRP in our Clinic to treat:
Face – As an effective treatment to restore your skin’s youthful appearance including crow’s feet, frown lines and loose skin
​
Body – By stimulating and accelerating your natural healing process, the skin is rejuvenated and renewed for stretch marks, cellulite and scarring (after injuries, new or old)
​
Scalp – Promotes new growth, to help give you fuller and thicker hair for hair rejuvenation
The Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Treatment
During your consultation, your practitioner will discuss the treatment, your goals, the procedure and your medical history including past injuries to the area. Following the initial consultation, if you agree to proceed, your practitioner will draw a small amount of your blood from your arm using a small needle.
​
We then spin your blood very fast in a centrifuge, which separates the platelet rich plasma (containing the important growth factors), from the other blood cells. Once this is completed the PRP is extracted and ready for use.
​
Should you wish, we can apply a local or topical anesthetic to numb your treatment areas, although most patients do not feel any pain during this treatment. Your practitioner will then apply (via injection or needling) the platelet rich plasma into, and around, the site you wish to be treated.
