PRP Process
Harvest
A small amount of blood is collected from the patients arm.
Separation
The harvested blood is placed in a centrifuge (blood spinning machine), which separates platelets from the blood.
Extraction
Once spun, the blood separates into three layers. A syringe is then used to draw out the PRP layer.
Transplant
The PRP is then injected into the inflamed area to promote relief and reduce inflammation.

+ How do PRP injections work?
Following the centrifuge, the blood divides up into its components, with platelets being the part we're focused on. Blood platelets normally stop cuts from bleeding. This happens because they draw regenerative cells known as "progenitor cells" to promote healing.
With platelet-rich plasma therapy, you are creating the same situation. Following the injection, a high concentration of platelets provides the treated area with regenerative factors, which help expedite the healing and recovery process.
+ Is there any downtime associated with PRP?
There is no downtime associated PRP injections; However, after your treatment, your skin may be red. This is normal and to be expected. Redness usually lasts from one to 24 hours. You may also have a little swelling in some areas.
Due to this, some patients like to be treated towards the end of the week, so they have the weekend to recover. Healing time varies from patient to patient. Healing may take longer if PRP injections are paired with micro-needling.
