PRP Treatment is one of the first applications that come to mind when it comes to non-surgical aesthetics. PRP treatment, which stands for Platelet Rich Plasma, is involved in the treatment of many diseases as well as aesthetic applications. The simultaneous advancement of technology and medicine ensures that modern applications become widespread and accessible to everyone.
PRP treatment is one of these modern methods. Let’s take a closer look at the curious topics such as what is PRP treatment, which heals many people today, makes us happy by reducing the signs of aging, makes us look more vigorous and lively, what is it used for, does it have side effects, how many times does it have to be done.
PRP treatment; It is a treatment applied with one’s own blood for scars, skin blemishes, skin sagging and wrinkles that occur in older ages. For PRP, first the blood of the person to be treated is taken and the plasma of the blood is separated with PRP kits.
PRP is then returned to the body by injection into the area where the treatment will be applied. Providing a vibrant and vigorous skin, PRP treatment can cure many diseases as well as aesthetic applications.
PRP is applied and gives satisfactory results from hair loss to knee pain, from non-healing wounds to many other orthopedic disorders.
PRP also treats skin problems such as acne spots, cracks, sagging and wrinkles, and scars by renewing the skin. In PRP, the plasma applied to the body is richer in platelet cells. Therefore, it has more healing power.
Are There Any Side Effects of PRP Treatment?
PRP has no known side effects. Since it is the person’s own blood, it is not possible to experience any allergic reactions. After the procedure, there is slight pain and swelling in the injection areas. These problems are resolved in a few days with painkillers and cold compresses.
PRP treatment is also known as non-surgical aesthetics. When it comes to non-surgical aesthetics, the procedures applied should not be thought of as simple, easy or unimportant. PRP is a very important treatment and should be performed by experts in well-equipped centers.
When do you see effects of PRP?
When we compare PRP treatment with other non-surgical aesthetic applications (filling, botox), we can say that it does not show immediate effects. In other applications, significant differences are seen even in the first session, but the effect of PRP becomes evident over time. The positive effects of PRP will be seen in approximately 3-6 months.
After PRP treatment the skin looks much healthier and more vibrant. After 3-4 sessions, this difference can be seen from the outside. However, PRP is an application that must be repeated, otherwise the skin may return to its previous appearance over time. It will be appropriate to renew PRP after 10-12 months.
