Platelet Rich Plasma Injections
Do you know your skin contains reserves of plumping and tightening substances like fatty deposits, collagen, and hyaluronic acid to give your skin elasticity, volume, and smooth texture? Dark circles, the hollowness of eyes, wrinkles, and marionette lines are the consequences of aging. However, loss of skin’s elasticity and tightness can also be the result of genetics, smoking, and other lifestyle changes.
Many aesthetic practices have revolutionized facial rejuvenation and other cosmetic treatment options. One of the huge hits among beauty lovers that have gained momentum to give your skin a more youthful appearance is Platelet Rich Plasma Injections and PRP with Microneedling.
First endorsed by many internet sensations like Bar Rafaeli and Kim Kardashian, PRP treatment takes your skin to the next level by using your skin’s own healing properties to make you look perfect.
This article explains everything about PRP injections and PRP with Microneedling, their benefits, how they are done, and what skin areas they can treat. So, let’s get started.
What Is Platelet Rich Plasma?
PRP injections have become the most popular “go-to” treatment for skin-savvy people. What makes PRP so effective is the healing properties of platelet-rich plasma that encourages the renewal of substances that diminish with age.
Just as white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets, plasma is an important component of your blood. Platelets are known to stimulate collagen production, repair tissues, and regenerate new cells because of the presence of growth factors in them. These growth factors include transforming growth factor (TGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) 1.
The concentrated mixture of blood plasma that is involved in the coagulation process and speeds up the wound healing process is called Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). PRP can be used as an injection or in combination with other cosmetic treatments to heal different skin problems caused by pollution, sun exposure, etc. 2.
