PRP TREATMENTS FOR HAIR & FACE

What is a PRP injection?

PRP works by using platelets from your blood. These are harvested via a sample from your arm which is then placed in a centrifuge machine. At Cornwall Medical Group (CMG) we use the Arthrex centrifuge to ensure the highest quality and concentration of platelets.

These platelets are then injected into the body to stimulate a healing and growth response in the tissue.

PRP Treatment for hair loss:

PRP is a scientifically proven treatment that can reinvigorate dormant hair follicles, improve the quality of your hair and scalp and stimulate new hair growth. Platelets are injected into the scalp to reach the bottom of the hair follicle; stimulating dermal papilla cells which are critical in hair growth.

It can be used to treat:

- Alopecia (hormone-related baldness)
- Thinning hair
- Poor quality scalp
- Male-pattern baldness

PRP Treatment for skin Rejuvenation:

PRP can be injected into the dermal layer of the skin using microneedling devices. These contain dozens to hundreds of microneedles in rows on a tiny patch.
boosting the body’s production of elastin and collagen. This can leave the skin looking plumper and smoother and can significantly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

PRP in the skin can be used to treat:

- Rosacea
- Acne and acne scarring
- Scarring and scar formation
- Pigmentation and skin blemishes including vitiligo and melasma
- Fine lines and wrinkles (the ‘Vampire Facial’)

Results& Longevity :

PRP is used either for the face or the hair
Face Plasma: The PRP rejuvenate the facial skin and gives back it glow and freshness
Hair Plasma: The PRP helps your hair grow back and treat its damaged ends while stopping it from falling.

The longevity of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections can vary depending on the individual and the condition being treated. PRP is a fraction of blood plasma containing a higher concentration of platelets than baseline levels, rich in growth factors and proteins that contribute to processes like proliferation, differentiation, and healing. In the context of skin rejuvenation, the effects of PRP injections can last for a period of six to twelve months, with some patients choosing to have a series of up to three treatments to achieve their desired results.
