PRP therapy
How does it work?
After you’re seated comfortably in the procedure room, a small amount of blood is taken from your arm. Next, the provider places it in a centrifuge machine. Then, after about 10 minutes the components of the blood separate and are ready for injection. Finally, the provider places the rich plasma into a sterile syringe and injects it into the treatment area
Depending on the type of treatment, microneedling may be performed. The practitioner applies the PRP which penetrates deep into the skin. The process usually doesn’t take long, but that can vary based on what treatment you’re having done and the size of your treatment area.
