A Look at PRP and Its Many Health Benefits
It seems nearly every aging person is looking for a way to turn back the clock. While there’s no magic spring that can offer you everlasting youth, everywhere you look there seems to be a product that claims anti-aging properties. But the hard truth is that many of these products do little to change the nature of your skin. Plus, many times they’re filled with harmful chemicals that aren’t good for your health.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a safe and natural way to reverse some of the drawbacks of aging in the face, hair, and body. At Nexclin Medicine, we provide a variety of PRP services at our Alpharetta, Georgia location to help you look and feel your best. Here are some of the benefits you can look forward to with PRP.
A safe, all-natural treatment
You only get one body in this lifetime. When undergoing any medical procedure you have to ask yourself, “is it safe?” PRP therapy is one treatment you can feel comfortable and confident undergoing because it uses your body’s powerful natural healing properties — no additional ingredients.
Your blood is composed of both liquid and solid material. Plasma is the liquid portion. White blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets account for the solid portion. Platelets contain numerous growth factors and are an essential part of your body’s healing process, hence why PRP therapy focuses on using them.
The process of PRP starts by first drawing your blood. Next, Naima Cheema, MD spins the sample in a centrifuge to separate the platelets and make a concentrated sample. Lastly, Dr. Cheema injects the sample directly into the area for which you’re seeking treatment, whether the face, head, or sexual organ.
Effective results
No matter in which area you receive treatments, PRP provides impressive results.
Facial rejuvenation
Your face is the first thing most people see when they meet you. As wrinkles and loose skin start to show up in your older years, a PRP facelift provides a way to erase these blemishes for a younger look.
A PRP facelift works by encouraging your stem cells to produce more collagen, which improves skin tone and resiliency. Over the next few months, you’ll notice a great improvement in skin texture and a dewy, supple complexion.
Hair restoration
Many men — and women, too — notice their hair thinning as they age. While some aren’t bothered by it, others wish to get their hair back for cosmetic concerns.
PRP for hair restoration works by stimulating your stem cells and hair follicles to produce new hair. It provides immediate and long-term results for those looking for fuller, longer hair again. In a clinically controlled study, patients who used PRP for hair restoration had significantly better results than the group who used Rogaine®.
Sexual dysfunction
If you don’t feel desire like you once did, PRP can help improve that. Males and females can both receive PRP treatment to help improve sexual dysfunction.
Penile rejuvenation
Dr. Cheema creates a PRP sample and directly administers it into your penis. Penile rejuvenation helps improve blood flow and repair damaged cells to improve your sexual wellbeing. Not only do results improve the sensation, but they also enhance your appearance.
Vaginal rejuvenation
For vaginal rejuvenation PRP provides a nonsurgical solution to incontinence, vaginal dryness, and low libido. By injecting PRP into your vaginal tissues, the platelets’ growth factors enhance the tissue and improve sexual function.
No downtime
PRP is a great option for people who want to see results but can’t afford a long recovery period. One of the best parts of PRP is that no one will even know you had it done — unless you tell them.
Most patients who receive PRP injections return to their everyday tasks immediately following the treatment. Others may experience some minor discomfort from the injections, but this can be eased with over-the-counter pain medication.
