Platelet Rich Plasma in Houston, TX
Platelet-rich plasma (also known as PRP) involves us drawing your blood, then spinning it in a centrifuge to isolate the red blood cells from your plasma. PRP is the concentration of platelets rich in autologous proteins that release growth factors to stimulate healing and cell regeneration. PRP can be injected directly into the dermis, and when used after laser or microneedling treatments, can help to stimulate faster healing, shortening the recovery process. PRP is a natural approach to enhancing one’s appearance, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a more youthful look or fuller hair without synthetic fillers or surgeries.
The beauty of PRP lies in its ability to deliver noticeable results that evolve. Many patients observe initial improvements within weeks, with the full effect becoming apparent after several months. These results can last anywhere from 12 to 18 months, depending on individual factors and the area treated.
