Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
What is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)?
Plasma, a component of the blood in the human body, helps with clotting of the blood in case of injuries; it is also widely used in cosmetic skin treatments as it supports cell growth. Platelet-rich plasma, known as PRP, is plasma that is isolated from the blood, and then concentrated. This concentrated plasma when injected into the damaged tissue cells, stimulates the growth of healthy new cells. These cell fragments play an important role in tissue repair and re-generation by regulating fundamental mechanisms that are involved in the healing process.
