What is PRP?
The supernatant of centrifuged blood is plasma, rich in platelets; the gold-colored supernatant is hence, ‘platelet-rich plasma (PRP)’. Often blood is double-spun (centrifuged twice) to achieve a concentration of platelets six times greater than occurs physiologically — or about 1M/ml plasma.
Platelets naturally contain growth factors which — in nature — allows injured tissues to grow new tissue and heal. Introducing concentrated platelet growth factors has been shown to have beneficial effects on the skin and other organs and tissues.
