What is PRP injection?
We have introduced PRP fat grafting last
time and today, we will look into more details.
What is PRP injection?
PRP(Platelet Rich Plasma) is concentration
of blood that contains much platelets..
Thus PRP treatments are the methods of
improving aged skin that stimulates collagen and elastic tissue regeneration by
injecting the patients’ own blood enriched with platelets.
It’s getting popular worldwide including
Japan that was interested in PRP long time ago already.
PRP injection production!
In order to produce PRP, we have to extract
the patient’s blood and use Centrifugation filtration method in steady speed and
time to divide the blood into three layers, platelet poor plasma, buffy coat
(PRP) and the red blood cells.
The amount of blood to be extracted and the
time taking for the centrifugation filtration is different according to the
type or manufacturer of kit, however the final amount of PRP is about 5~7ml on
most of kits.
During blood extraction, thick needles
(about 18 gages) are used to avoid irritation or damage on platelets and the
kit includes anticoagulation citrate dextrose-A (ACD-A) solution to avoid
coagulation.
PRP injection’s effect!
The principle of PRP treatment is that it
regenerates skin and produces protein that makes skin younger by activating
inner skin tissue’s collagen cell, arteries cell and stem cells with PRP
injection.
Thus PRP treatments have been used actively
for faster recovery after surgery or fracture at orthopedics, dentists and
surgery department.
PRP is usually injected directly on to the
desired area such as less elastic part or can scars, or it also gets used by
applying on skin after laser treatments like fraxel.
The activated platelet encourages stem cell’s
differentiation and forms elastic tissue cells such as collagen or elastin.
These newly formed elastic cells differentiate and grow to help on the skin
regeneration.
When PRP is injected on the scalp, it
regenerates scalp and forms new hair follicle cells which could encourage hair
growth that could be used for hair loss treatment.
PRP treatments that use collagen or elastin
which is effective for skin regeneration is an injection treatment that is similar
to botox or filler and has short treatment time and is relatively simple.
Usually the effect of treatment appears
after 2 weeks however this could be different according to person and one
treatment lasts up to 1~2 years.
Also, it could be used for broad range of
treatments with massive synergy effects, such as PRP+Laser, PRP+RF, PRP+Fat
Injection.
There is no need for after care and it is
possible for the patient to wash their face or take shower on the day of
treatment that has almost no discomfort through their daily life which is one
of the advantages.
