What is Platelet-Rich-Plasma (PRP) Injection Therapy Treatment?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a 100% natural approach allowing the body's own natural resource to support cellular regeneration and repair. PRP is a component of your own blood rich with growth factors that are used to accelerate healing in various areas of the body

The procedure begins with a simple blood draw. Then, using a proprietary technique, platelets are separated and concentrated. The plasma contains white blood cells and platelets, which are rich in growth factors. These growth factors are injected directly into the area needing rejuvenation or combined with micro-needling to get total skin rejuvenation. 

Some of our most popular PRP treatments are:

·      dark circles under the eyes

·      face

·      scalp for hair restoration

·      vaginal rejuvenation

How Does PRP Work?

PRP injections stimulate collagen and elastin production, which thickens and tightens thinning skin, effectively smoothing wrinkles and fine lines. Because it boosts collagen, it's also a great treatment for improving overall skin texture and tone. It's particularly good for people who suffer from rosacea or acne.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is commonly used in the following procedures:

Micro-Needling & PRP in Boise & Meridian, ID

Skin micro-needling, sometimes called a micro-needle facial, can be performed in combination with platelet-rich-plasma therapy (PRP) for total skin rejuvenation. Micro-needling is a facial treatment that creates invisible micro-perforations into the epidermis and the top layer of the dermis. Your skin becomes firmer and regains its elasticity, fine lines and wrinkles are visibly reduced, pores become finer, circulation is stimulated, and the overall condition of the skin improves. Micro-needling breaks down old scar tissue and stimulates cells to multiply, resulting in the formation of new tissue layers of elastin and collagen fibers, as well as in new capillaries for an improved blood supply.

Micro-needling is commonly used for:

·      Rosacea

·      Active acne

·      Hyperpigmentation

·      Eyes

·      Scalp

PRP for Hair Restoration Treatment for Men & Women in Boise, Eagle, ID

The plasma, rich in platelets, is injected directly into the scalp at the level of the hair follicles.  PRP injections trigger natural hair growth and maintain it by increasing blood supply to the hair follicle and increasing the thickness of the hair shaft.

Patients will usually notice a decrease in hair shedding, followed by early regrowth and increased length of hair. The general consensus is that receiving treatments every three to six months on a long-term basis are optimal for continuing to stimulate the growth factors and stem cells that are associated with regrowth and stopping hair loss.

For best results, consistency is key. Treatments are typically performed once a month for the first 3-4 months, and then every 3-6 months thereafter, depending on the individual patient's response and results. Following this protocol, anticipated PRP hair treatment results can first be seen within 2-3 months.

PRP for Vaginal Rejuvenation in Meridian, Boise, ID

Some people call this female or feminine rejuvenation, vagi rejuvenation, or women’s rejuvenation procedure. Using PRP in the vagina is a revolutionary, non-surgical treatment that uses a patient’s own blood platelets to activate growth factors that rejuvenate the female orgasm system, allowing more blood to flow to the organ. The results are:

·      Enhanced sensitivity

·      Dramatic improvement in sexual function

·      Proven effective for treating urinary and stress incontinence

This vaginal rejuvenation procedure begins with a simple blood draw. Using a proprietary technique, the platelets are then separated and concentrated. The PRP that contains the growth factors extracted from your blood is then injected into an area near the clitoris and into the area of the upper vagina that is most important for sexual response. These areas are numbed with a local anesthetic cream before injection, and patients experience little or no discomfort during the procedure.

Some patients require only a single treatment to achieve optimal results. However, most patients will benefit most from a series of 4 treatments, spaced 3-4 weeks apart.
