Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is blood plasma that contains a concentrated source of
autologous platelets (from one's own blood). Platelets, by their nature, have a multitude of individual growth factors and cytokines that stimulate healing and repair. There are over 18,000 published studies regarding the use of PRP and PRP has been around to assist healing since the early 1990s. When all the studies are evaluated on the whole, it is now known that regardless of whether or not the PRP contains white blood cells or not, as long as the minimum number of platelets are within the samples, the results will be similar. More than 3-5 billion platelets are needed for a successful therapeutic result. The CARE PRP single spin system nets between 7-10 billion platelets.
PRP is an all-natural, FDA-approved, minimally invasive approach to personalized care. It is a cornerstone of regenerative medicine that boosts the body's natural repair process and demonstrates anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties. It can be injected as an aesthetic compound to promote collagen synthesis or it can be injected into other soft tissue regions or even joints, to promote healing.
