    What is PRP Platelet Rich Plasma?

    Platelet Rich Plasma PRP is a concentrated product derived from the patient’s blood containing a high level of platelets. Platelets are tiny cells involved in coagulation and contain many proteins and substances known as growth factors. These factors are involved in tissue healing and regeneration and can promote cell migration and division, activating the reparative response of damaged tissues in the organism.

    It is currently used in several medical specialties and has proven to be effective in treating different conditions, such as:

    • Inflammation and pain reduction, mainly in patients affected by osteoarthritis.
    • Injuries of the musculoskeletal system.
    • Delaying the aging process of the skin and maintaining general health.
    • Hair loss and other scalp conditions.

    Since the material is obtained from the patient’s blood, it offers minimal risk of allergies, immune rejection, infections, or contagious diseases.

    Plasma Rich Platelet injection is a novel therapeutic tool. It is a very safe, minimally painful outpatient treatment that requires no prior testing.

    Why is PRP considered the best Regenerative Medicine?

    PRP promotes local tissue healing and regeneration, causing a more significant impact by directly infiltrating the injured area of the body, be it tissues or joints. There are several reasons to consider Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) as the best regenerative medicine:
    • It has a natural healing ability. It is a harmless treatment since it uses the patient’s blood, reducing the risk of possible adverse reactions.
    • Wide applications. Today, PRP is applied in several clinical fields, including orthopedics, ophthalmology, healing therapies, and tissue regeneration.
    • It is safe. PRP therapies have been used to treat various conditions for more than 30 years, generating considerable interest in autogenous PRP’s potential in regenerative medicine.
    • Clinical efficacy. Although studies are inconclusive, there is a consensus that PRP is more effective than steroid, or hyaluronic acid in certain injuries or degenerative conditions.

    How does Plasma Rich Platelet Injection work for pain treatment?

    PRP Platelet Rich Plasma injections stimulate the body’s natural healing process and help it recover from injuries.

    The process behind PRP injections has yet to be fully understood. Still, studies show that the high concentration of growth factors in platelet-rich plasma accelerates and thus shortens the healing process, significantly reducing inflammation and pain.

    This treatment optimizes the body’s regenerative response by regulating cells’ activation, proliferation, and migration around the wound and creating healthy tissue.

    One of the main benefits of plasma rich platelet injection is that it can help reduce the need for painkillers or anti-inflammatory drugs, improving patients’ overall health and quality of life

    PRP Platelet Rich Plasma hair loss

    PRP Platelet Rich Plasma hair loss therapy has gained recognition as a promising treatment for those who wish to combat hair loss or thinning hair. This natural method extracts the patient’s blood, processes it to isolate platelet-rich plasma, and then injects it into the scalp. It can be used alone or with other hair loss treatments, such as transplants. Some research suggests that PRP after hair transplant can improve the healing process and enhance the growth rate of the transplanted follicles. This process stimulates the scalp and increases blood flow to the hair follicles, optimizing the potential results of a hair transplant and giving way to new, thicker hair.

    On the other hand, microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that creates tiny punctures in the skin. Combined with the PRP treatment, it helps stimulate collagen and elastin production, two indispensable elements for hair production and growth. The combination of PRP and PRP microneedling results has been promising in contributing to scalp rejuvenation and improving overall hair health for individuals seeking non-surgical solutions.

    Natural Hormone Replacement.

    This variation of HRT uses bio-identical hormones derived from plants or animal sources, which are chemically identical to the hormones naturally produced by the body. It aims to replace hormones that decline naturally with age, used to relieve symptoms associated with menopause, such as hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. It typically includes an estrogen and progesterone component to mimic hormones created by the human ovary. In some cases, testosterone may also be prescribed, especially for improving sex drive. This therapy aims to reduce the risk of side effects of HRT by providing a more natural approach.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Who does PRP?

    Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections are primarily administered to address a range of conditions, including sports injuries, hair loss, and cosmetic procedures. They can be performed by several types of doctors and medical professionals, such as Orthopedic surgeons and sports medicine physicians, Dermatologists, Rheumatologists, and Other specialists like physiatrists or plastic surgeons.

    Dr Rengifo is a specialist who has been using PRP for many years. Almost all patients report significant improvement in their conditions.

    Is PRP covered by Insurance?

    Most insurance companies do not cover PRP; however, you do not need that coverage at Alliance DPC to benefit. Our memberships include the necessary consultations and some of the exams that may be necessary. 

    Is PRP safe?

    Platelet-rich plasma injections (PRP) are generally considered safe. PRP is derived from the patient’s blood and plasma, and common side effects including soreness, bruising, itching, pain, or swelling around the treated area, are usually mild and temporary.

    However, PRP therapy may not be suitable for everyone; there are some contraindications to consider for people with blood clotting issues or certain medical conditions. It’s essential to consult Dr. Rengifo to determine if you are a suitable candidate for PRP and to discuss the potential risks and benefits in your specific case.

    Will PRP treatment hurt?

    PRP treatment can cause some discomfort, as it is common to experience soreness and pain. However, the level of pain varies depending on several factors: sensitivity in the injection area, whether the doctor is using numbing medication, and individual pain tolerance.

    Some joint soreness, stiffness, or bruising may occur for a few days after the injections. That is considered a normal inflammatory reaction and can signify the healing process.

    If you’re worried about pain, discuss it with your doctor beforehand to address any concerns regarding potential discomfort associated with PRP treatment.

    How long does it take to see results from PRP?
    The growth factors have to stimulate the tissue, so the result may not be instantaneous. The effect will be more noticeable as the days pass, and the maximum effect occurs 30 days after the treatment. The number of sessions will depend on each patient’s needs, but we recommend three sessions, one every 15 days. The result lasts approximately one year; after that, only one or two additional sessions per year will be necessary for maintenance.
    Am I a good candidate for PRP?
    Determining whether you are a good candidate for Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy will depend on various factors that require a medical professional’s evaluation. They can assess your situation, specific medical history, the condition being treated, and overall health. They also conduct a physical examination and discuss your treatment’s potential benefits, risks, and goals to determine if PRP therapy is for you.
