Can you please provide the different method of performing PRP and the advantages, Which one of these version of PRP is the most effective version , PRP with the Microoneedling method or PRP with Injection ? Thank you.
Answer: Microneedling vs. PRP injections Microneedling when used in conjunction with PRP is an alternate delivery system. Injections are...simply injections delivering the PRP to where it is wanted or needed. Microneedling involves topical application after the creation of multiple portals of entry. The trauma created by the needles also initiate the inflammatory cascade which will take advantage of the growth factors predominant in concentrated PRP. Laser resurfacing can have a similar effect as microneedling when combined with PRP. Ultimately, the results of either are always better with PRP.As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS).

Answer: PRP Thank you for your question about PRP. I cannot speak for all offices, but our office use both according to what the patient is needing. For hair restoration we inject PRP and for scars, skin rejuvenation and other concerns we microneedle the PRP into the skin. In order to accurately recommend a treatment for you, you would need an in person consultation. To be sure you receive the best treatment, see two or more experienced, licensed and board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Answer: PRP microneedling or PRP Injections - and what are the differences? The PRP is derived from the patient. Some blood is drawn, spun in a centrifuge which separates the platelets from everything else. The platelets have growth factors and mediators which promote faster healing and better results. If you only get microneedling, you typically get some improvement, bu not as much than when you add PRP.

Answer: PRP Micro-Needling vs Injection Hi there Sherryes21, I don't know what results you are necessarily looking for but, I can tell you what each treatment targets and works best at and hopefully that gives you the guidance you need. Micro-Needling with PRP, stimulates extra collagen production, which can help heal scars and reduce signs of aging. PRP contains proteins, including growth factors and cytokines. The addition of PRP from the blood may make microneedling more effective. Platelets help blood clot, so they are vital for healing wounds and injuries. PRP is plasma in which the concentration of platelets is higher than that of other components of the blood. These proteins help skin tissue repair itself. Benefits: acne scarssurgical scarswrinkles and fine lineshyperpigmentationsun damagelarge poresuneven skin texture PRP Injections, uses the same technology as listed above, the only difference being that it is injected. For this reason I find that PRP Injections are best for treating specific targeted areas. Like, under the eyes, the lips, and fine lines. I like to use PRP injections as a natural alternative to filler. The only downfall is that it takes about a month and repeated treatments to sometimes see desired results. These results can then last 12-18 months. For this reason many patients like to combine Dermal Fillers with PRP for an immediate results, with the PRP helping it last longer. I also use PRP injections for my O-Shot and P-Shot. Which aids in helping sexual dysfunction in men and women. I hope this helped! Dr. Eisenbrown

Answer: PRP Thank you for your message! Our office works with PRP in two ways, using it during a microneedling treatment to work it into the epidermis and then injecting it more deeply into the skin. We often couple the two methods to help boost superficial and deeper results. PRP helps to boost collagen in the area! I would recommend a consultation with a provider in your area for further evaluation and to see which method, if not both, work for you!
