What Is Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy?

Platelet-rich plasma therapy is a treatment that uses the healing power of blood to help heal damaged areas of the body. It involves drawing a small amount of blood, just like during a routine test. Then, it undergoes a special process to separate and concentrate the platelets. These tiny cells in the blood are rich in growth factors and proteins vital for healing and tissue regeneration. 

Once ready, this enriched plasma is injected into the area that needs attention—your face, scalp, or any other body part. It significantly improves skin texture and promotes healthy hair growth. This treatment is popular because it uses the body’s own healing abilities to help repair and renew tissues naturally.

Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy Available At Pristyn Care

Pristyn Care offers advanced PRP therapy to help rejuvenate your skin and hair using your body’s natural healing abilities.

PRP Facial (Vampire Facial)

The PRP facial, famously referred to as the Vampire Facial, combines microneedling with PRP therapy to enhance collagen production in your face. During this procedure, tiny needles are used to create micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. PRP is then applied, allowing the enriched plasma to penetrate deeply.

This technique encourages the body to produce more collagen, improving skin firmness and reducing fine lines. It is a popular choice to naturally revitalise the facial skin’s quality, giving it a vibrant glow.

PRP Hair Restoration

PRP hair restoration is designed for individuals experiencing hair loss. During this process, the enriched plasma is injected into the scalp where there is hair loss. This boosts inactive hair follicles, encouraging hair growth and increasing hair thickness. This minimally invasive procedure can make a significant difference for those struggling with hair loss, engaging your scalp’s natural repair system.

PRP Vaginal Rejuvenation

PRP vaginal rejuvenation focuses on improving vaginal health by enhancing tissue elasticity and function. The procedure involves injecting PRP into specific areas of the vaginal region to promote tissue regeneration and improve moisture levels. This treatment can address various concerns, including dryness and discomfort, by boosting the natural healing processes of the body.

With all these procedures offered at Pristyn Care, you can experience advanced care that utilises your body’s resources for healing and rejuvenation.

Eligibility For Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy

Platelet-rich plasma therapy is gaining popularity for its potential to speed healing and improve skin health. However, not everyone is eligible for PRP therapy, so an assessment by a doctor is essential. Here are the key factors that influence eligibility:

  • Diagnosis: PRP is often recommended for conditions like osteoarthritis or injuries to tendons, ligaments, muscles, or joints. It can also be used for treating certain nerve injuries.
  • Medical history: A doctor will review your medical history to ensure no underlying health issues could complicate the treatment. This step is crucial to prevent any adverse effects.
  • Physical evaluation: A sports medicine physician will carry out a thorough physical check-up to assess your condition and decide if PRP therapy is suitable.
  • Previous treatments: Before exploring PRP therapy, patients are generally advised to try standard treatments like physical therapy and lifestyle changes.
  • Blood conditions: Certain blood disorders may disqualify a person from PRP therapy as it could pose additional risks.

Initial Examinations

Before you can proceed with PRP therapy, doctors need to make sure it’s the right fit for you. Here are some initial checks they might do:

  • Medical history review: Checking for any conditions or medications that might interfere with the treatment.
  • Physical examination: A detailed physical check to understand the extent and nature of your condition.
  • Blood tests: Ensuring that your blood composition is suitable for creating PRP.
  • Current treatments review: Assessing any ongoing treatments that might affect or be affected by PRP.

How is Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy Performed?

Platelet-rich plasma therapy is a systematic process involving several steps to ensure effectiveness and safety. Here’s what the procedure typically involves:

  • Blood collection: First, a small amount of blood is drawn from your arm.
  • Centrifugation: This blood is then put into a machine called a centrifuge. The machine spins the blood at high speeds to separate its components.
  • Concentration: Platelets are extracted and concentrated, resulting in platelet-rich plasma. It has five to ten times more platelets than normal blood.
  • Preparation for injection: This concentrated plasma gets mixed with the plasma base to prepare it for injection.
  • Injection: Finally, using ultrasound guidance, the prepared PRP is injected into the affected area, ensuring precise delivery.
  • Post-injection monitoring: After the injection, you’ll be observed briefly to check for any immediate reactions.

How to Prepare for Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy?

Preparing for PRP therapy can help ensure the procedure goes smoothly and effectively. Here’s how you can get ready:

  • Discuss health history: Share any medical conditions or allergies with your doctor to avoid complications.
  • Stop certain medications: If you’re on blood thinners or NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs), you might need to stop them before the procedure.
  • Stay hydrated: Drinking plenty of water can improve blood flow and make the procedure easier.
  • Avoid heavy meals: Eating lightly on the day of the treatment helps avoid discomfort during the procedure.

Post-procedure Care After Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy?

Post-procedure care is vital in ensuring a smooth recovery after PRP therapy. Initially, some mild pain or swelling at the injection site is normal as your body begins to heal. Here’s what to expect and some tips to help you recover:

  • Rest: Give yourself some time to recover by avoiding strenuous activities for a few days.
  • Hydration: Keep drinking water to assist your body’s natural healing processes.
  • Pain management: Ice packs can help reduce swelling and discomfort if needed.
  • Follow-up appointments: Make sure to attend any follow-up visits scheduled by your doctor to track progress.
  • Gradual return to activities: Slowly ease back into your routine under your doctor’s guidance.
  • Monitor for infection: Be vigilant about any signs of infection at the injection site and report them immediately if they occur.

Avoid anti-inflammatories: Do not take anti-inflammatory medications as they might affect the healing process initiated by PRP.
