Platelet Rich Plasma Treatments

WHAT PRP TREATS

Platelet-rich plasma therapy can help:

Restore thinning hair (androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium, alopecia areata)
Reduce appearance of lines & wrinkles
Stimulate collagen growth
Smooth marionette lines around mouth
Smooth out creases on the upper face
Improve neck banding
Improve acne scarring

Platelet-rich plasma therapy can complement other rejuvenating treatments and is often used in conjunction with other procedures. Because it is so well-tolerated, PRP is excellent for treating sensitive areas. This treatment is safe, effective, and does not require any downtime.

HOW PRP WORKS

The procedure involves the introduction of platelet-rich plasma into depleted areas of the skin. The PRP contains a high concentration of growth factors, which encourage tissue regeneration and healing. The growth factors released from the PRP support and promote:
· Tissue repair
· Epithelial cell growth (cells that line outer layer of the skin or epidermis)
· Collagen-building
· Regeneration of the skin

To obtain the platelet-rich plasma, blood must first be drawn. Dr. Goldenberg uses Eclipse PRP HC, a safe and effective system, to prepare therapeutic plasma. After the platelet-rich plasma has been prepared, Dr. Goldenberg will inject the PRP into the treatment area

The procedure is painless with little to no recovery time is needed. Patients may experience some mild bruising and swelling at the injection site, but these temporary side effects will subside within a few days. Results will become visible about 3-4 weeks following injections; as the collagen-building process continues, the skin will improve.

Combining PRP With
Other Treatments

Combining PRP Therapy with Microneedling

Combining PRP with microneedling – known as is an ideal treatment for a patient looking to improve acne scarring, wrinkles and lines, skin complexion, melasma, and hyperpigmentation. PRP can be used along with microneedling and then injected into the problem areas. The treatment is virtually painless with little down time.

Combining PRP Therapy with Dermal Fillers

It is common for patients to combined PRP therapy with other cosmetic procedures such as dermal fillers, laser treatments or cosmetic surgery. The most popular combination is using PRP therapy with dermal fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane and Radiesse. By combining PRP therapy with dermal fillers, Dr. Gary Goldenberg can increase the collagen production in the skin. Results of this combined treatment improve over time.
