A small blood sample is drawn from the patient and spun in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelet-rich plasma from other blood components. This plasma — rich in growth factors — is then reintroduced into the skin, either via injection or in combination with microneedling to enhance penetration.
The growth factors signal skin cells to accelerate tissue repair, boost collagen synthesis and improve blood supply to the treated area. Because the treatment uses the patient's own blood, the risk of allergic reaction is minimal. Results build gradually over several weeks following each session.
