PRP Treatment

PRP Treatment

In modern medicine, PRP treatment (Platelet-Rich Plasma), used in a wide range of areas from skin rejuvenation to hair loss treatment, orthopedics, and dentistry, is based on the principle of returning growth factors derived from the patient’s own blood back to the body.
Thanks to its completely natural, safe, and effective nature, it has become one of the most preferred regenerative methods in recent years.

PRP treatment aims to enhance the body’s ability to self-repair. It supports cellular regeneration and provides a younger, healthier, and more radiant appearance.

What is PRP?

PRP, or Platelet-Rich Plasma, is a biological product obtained by processing the patient’s own blood into plasma that is rich in platelets and growth factors.
Platelets, which are responsible for blood clotting, also play an active role in:

• Wound healing
• Tissue repair
• Cellular regeneration

The goal of PRP treatment is to inject this concentrated form of cells into the area of the body that needs it, in order to accelerate recovery and trigger cellular regeneration.
It is a completely natural and personalized procedure that contains no drugs, chemicals, or external substances.

How Is PRP Treatment Applied?

The PRP procedure is quite simple and painless, typically lasting between 30 to 45 minutes. It is carried out in the following steps:

• Blood extraction: Between 8 to 10 ml of blood is drawn from the patient.
• Centrifugation: The blood is placed in a special tube and centrifuged at high speed for 8–10 minutes. This process separates red blood cells, white blood cells, and plasma. The platelet-rich plasma found in the upper layer is used for the treatment.
• Injection: The obtained plasma is injected under the skin or into the targeted tissue using very fine needles. Depending on the treatment area, it can be applied via:
 • Facial mesotherapy
 • Direct injection into the scalp
 • Deep injection into joints

What Areas Can PRP Be Used For?

Effects of PRP on Hair Transplantation

PRP enhances the success of hair transplants by:

• Stimulating cellular regeneration in the transplanted area
• Improving local blood circulation and nutrient delivery
• Increasing the survival rate of the implanted follicles
• Reducing the “shock loss” effect that can occur after the transplant
• Improving the thickness, shine, and strength of the new hair
• Accelerating skin healing after the surgical procedure

Recommended Frequency:

• 3 to 4 initial sessions (one per month)
• Maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months

Advantages of PRP Treatment
