PRP which is known as platelet-rich plasma was considered previously only for wound healing by orthopedics but according to the latest studies it is said that PRP is also useful in the improvement of wrinkles and skin rejuvenation.
It’s always said that according to medical studies skin has a cell called fibroblasts which produce collagen and elastin which helps for the skin to remain tight and youth so according to recent studies it is said that doctors are now treating skin rejuvenation with the help of PRP by using its regenerative properties.
RESEARCH ON SCIENTIFIC BASIS:
- It was recently published in the journal of cosmetic dermatology where doctors. Say that your own blood platelets helps in the reduction of the aging process and make your face look young and also shows positive results in skin turgor
- Journal of the aesthetic study said that PRP injection prevents premature aging process with the help of thickening of the dermis and fibrotic aspect with collagen density and elastosis
- Egyptians doctors concluded that a single PRP injection is capable of correcting the wrinkles of nasolabial folds
- Italian doctors found that 3 sessions of PRP given at an interval of 4 weeks would improve skin texture along with its smoothness
- In 2003 doctors at Scripps XIMED gave an opinion that PRP injection would also improve your sun-damaged skin especially at the periorbital area
- It was also been found by the latest trends that patient with post-treatment of PRP injected cheek gave high scores in skin texture as compared to another saline-injected cheek
HOW PRP WORKS:
A small amount of blood is drawn from the patient and centrifuged so that the concentrated platelets are fused with plasma and then injected into the skin in the part to be treated
FACTORS TO BE AT CAUTION:
- All blood-thinning medications like aspirin and NSAID should be discontinued 1 week before the procedure
- After the procedure, gentle skincare products like moisturizer are to be taken with great care
- Hyaluronic acid is nowadays recommended by every doctor for long term effects
SCOPE OF PRP IN PHOTO DAMAGE SKIN:
- The primary purpose of platelet is for wound closure but in a person of absence of traumatic wound, growth factors produced from platelets helps to repair sun-damaged skin
For example if while going out, you are not applying high SPF sunscreen then high ultraviolet rays of the sun would damage your skin so if PRP injections are used for treating then they regulate collagenase secretion and collagen synthesis with endothelial mitogenesis and epidermal growth factor PRP injections deliver these bioactive healing compounds directly to the site of damage and helps in improving skin texture and skin smoothness
ADVANTAGES OF PRP:
- PRP avoids all types of strong acids and all chemical agents for its use so it is said to be a natural rejuvenation
- Chemical peels and laser treatments require a long recovery time whereas PRP has a short time recovery period patient can perform his activities from the same day itself
- There is no risk of harmful effects as the body does not reject our own platelet plasma whereas in peels lasers some clients are very sensitive to it which results in skin burn
- Results are long-lasting as compared to other rejuvenation treatments
