PRP FOR SCARS

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment is a non-surgical treatment that uses your own body's healing ability to stimulate skin repair. It is a natural treatment that uses platelets from your own blood. These activated platelets secrete at least 7 different growth factors that promote the natural healing process of the skin and hair follicles.

During a PRP treatment, a small amount of blood is taken from you in a sterile tube in exactly the same way as a standard blood test. The tube containing your blood is placed in a centrifuge and spun to separate the plasma and platelets from the other blood components.

After a few minutes, the PRP layer is removed from the same tube and reinserted into the body at the site to be treated. Using a small sterile needle, your doctor injects the PRP into and around the desired location.

The production of collagen induced by the PRP will brighten, rejuvenate and rehydrate the skin even after the first treatment. You can also focus on a specific spot, such as a scar. To see the full effect of this technique, a course of 3-4 treatments is recommended.
