Why PRP

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is one of the leading areas of biologic medicine that uses the body’s own cells to stimulate tissue growth. PRP Therapy is a process in which a high concentration of autologous platelets found in the patient’s own plasma is isolated and injected or applied directly to the tissue.

These treatments have exploded in popularity and frequency in recent years as patients have experienced the long-term benefit with little to no side effects. Excellent, non-surgical results that exceed patient expectations are now possible with PRP for hair regrowth, skin rejuvenation and enhancement of sexual organ function.
