Platelet Rich Plasma or PRP therapy has proven in the healing process of wounds and tissues. PRP is used to promote faster healing of musculoskeletal injuries through concentrated platelet introduction. Platelets are the part of blood that helps the clotting process after injury. 

Known for its ability to improve recovery time and healing of ligaments, joints, muscles, and tissue, platelet-rich plasma has recently proven that it can also assist in the healing and recovery of several skin issues:

• Leg ulcers (arterial and venous)
• Foot ulcers (associated with diabetes)
• Bedsores
• Skin grafts
• First- and second-degree burns
• Cuts and abrasions, including chronic wounds on the heels
• Healing from surgical incisions
• Cosmetic treatment and healing of scars

PRP releases growth factors into soft tissues. This process provides an increased concentration of platelets that aid in tissue healing and recovery. Each of these specific growth factors aids the healing process by the following:

• Attracting undifferentiated stem cells and starting the cell division process
• Preventing inflammation by suppressing the release of specific cell proteins improving healing of tissue by attracting white blood cells (sometimes called macrophages) to assist regeneration of cells and improve tissue healing
• Promoting the formation of new blood cells and speeding up the healing of tissue (epithelialization).
