PLATELET RICH PLASMA (PRP)
PRP is a plasma which has an increased concentration of platelets above the normal baseline in your blood. During the PRP procedure, a small amount of blood is taken from you and it is then processed to produce the PRP. It is then injected back into the targeted treatment areas like your face and scalp. PRP contains more than 30 bioactive proteins and over 20 growth factors which are activated upon proper processing and these factors when injected, can cause your skin to regenerate and remodel, and in hair loss treatment, can stimulate new scalp hair growth.
