PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma)

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is an enriched plasma treatment method obtained from your own blood. This treatment is used to stimulate the body's natural healing process and improve skin problems. PRP treatment involves enriching a sample of your blood by centrifugation and injecting the plasma obtained into the skin.

PRP treatment supports skin renewal, repair and regeneration processes thanks to the high concentration of platelets and growth factors it contains. Platelets are cells that help heal wounds in your body. Growth factors, on the other hand, encourage skin cell growth, tissue repair and collagen production.

PRP treatment can be used to treat various skin problems. These include reducing signs of skin aging, eliminating wrinkles, smoothing acne scars, improving skin tone, treating hair loss and accelerating wound healing.

PRP treatment usually includes the following steps:

1. Taking a Blood Sample: Some blood is taken for the procedure. This is a simple blood draw, usually done from the arm area.

2. Plasma Enrichment: Blood is processed in a centrifuge device and separates platelets into a highly concentrated plasma.

3. Injection: Enriched plasma is injected sterilely into areas with skin problems. Injections can be customized based on the skin problem, individual needs, and treatment area.

Side effects of PRP treatment are generally minimal. Mild redness, swelling, or tenderness may occur at the injection site, but is usually short-lived and temporary. The recovery process is usually rapid, allowing the person to return to daily activities immediately.

PRP treatment results may vary from person to person. Full results usually occur after treatment sessions are completed, and improvement often continues for several months.

It is important to consult a dermatologist to get more information about PRP treatment and to evaluate treatment options.
