PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma)
Platelet rich plasma (=platelet rich plasma), ie PRP, is a substance obtained from platelets in the blood, whose main task is to stop bleeding by providing clotting. Platelets; In case of any injury, they come to the cut site by blood and, when activated, they release many growth factors that allow new tissue formation to the environment as well as stopping the bleeding. It has been proven by studies that these cells help regeneration in the injected tissue (bone, cartilage, nerve, connective tissue, tendon), even if there is no injury. Growth factors increase the functioning of new collagen-producing cells, as well as ensure that the substances necessary for new collagen are transferred to their location.

How is PRP obtained?
In order to obtain PRP, the blood taken from the patient is transferred to a special tube and centrifuged according to a specified protocol, and platelet serum with increased platelet density three to four times is obtained. After all, this concentrated platelet-containing serum also means intense growth factors.
What does PRP and Growth Factor do?
Condensed platelets increase the functioning of new collagen producing cells by secreting growth factor where they are injected, even if there is no injury to the tissue, and they also ensure that the substances necessary for new collagen are brought to their location. Thus, new collagen production and a brighter, more energetic appearance are obtained in facial injections.
