PRP Therapy
At Village Dermatology in Houston, we are specialists in Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy. PRP is an exciting, non-surgical option for the treatment of aging skin and of hair loss in both men and women.
PRP therapy has been used for some time with great success in the orthopedics world for sports injuries. Its recent introduction into the dermatology field has been met with great reception, as it is a fast, safe, and effective treatment for a variety of conditions.
What is PRP?
Although blood consists primarily of a liquid known as plasma, it also contains small solid components such as red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Platelets are well known for their role in assisting with the clotting of blood, but they also have other properties. They contain hundreds of proteins, known as growth factors, that play a very large role in the healing of injuries.
PRP is plasma that has a greater concentration of platelets, and therefore growth factors, than normal blood, and laboratory studies have shown that these increased growth factors have the potential to improve healing and regeneration.
