Dear Doctor, These 7 PRP Treatments Are Hot In Your State

It takes 15-20 minutes to draw 20cc of the patient’s blood, mix it with a small amount of citrate and spin it using a special prp kit and a matching centrifuge for producing the Platelet-Rich Plasma you need for most PRP treatments.

That’s what it takes to produce a multi-potential healing aid to speed up your patients’ recovery.

And it’s definitely the best free healing agent that contains growth factors, and platelets which stimulate the influx of macrophages, stem cells and other repair cells.

The Advantages of Doing PRP, The Right Way

Of course, you can create your own PRP easily by putting the blood in a test tube and spinning it in a generic table top centrifuge and no one can tell the difference. However, it may not have any platelets and probably no tissue healing proteins.

If you do it right way, using the right equipment, you can generate PRP with 7x the normal platelet concentrations. This is called Enhanced PRP. You can also use adipose tissue or collagen fibers to hold the PRP material and form a PRP matrix to amplify the effects.

The 5 Type Of Treatments That Are Hot Right Now

People who are new to Platelet-Rich Plasma may have a hard time believing in the scope of healing it offers. The best 5 treatments are the following:

1. PRP Facial Treatments

A whole lot of skin centers thrive just because they are one of the first ones to offer Platelet-Rich Plasma treatments. This is kind of a treatment that doesn’t need much convincing since there’s no side effects and no down time. Popular prp treatments for face include wrinkle reduction, eye bag and dark circle reduction, skin rejuvenation, gum lift (PRP with collagen sponge is injected after removing stitches in the gum), rosacea reduction, lip augmentation (using a combination of fat and PRP, brought to the limelight by Kylie Jenner and Charlotte Crosby), and vitiligo correction (PRP injection in combination with narrowband-ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) phototherapy improves re-pigmentation).

An especially generic and popular treatment is a combination of Platelet-Rich Plasma and Micro Pigmentation. When applied, this novel treatment can produce the effect of botox, lipo or facelift for far less cost.

2. PRP Hair Loss Treatments

The growth factors in Platelet-Rich Plasma can reverse non-genetical, early-stage hair loss patterns. There is a huge market for this procedure and very little practitioners offering it. It’s one of the areas for Platelet-Rich Plasma that has a huge unrealized potential. Clients also have seen successful results in cases of thinning hair and even beard regrowth.

3. PRP For Arthritis And Cartilage Repair

More than $6.4 billion worth of Arthritis treatments were performed in the US in 2013 alone. That number is poised to hit $9 billion by 2020. And study after study are showing how PRP can not only reduce arthritis symptoms but also regenerate the knee cartilage, something which no other mode of treatments have been able to do.

PRP treatments for Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis (TMJ) is one of the most in-demand ones.

4. PRP for Anti-Aging

There are several high end products and complicated procedures that are popular in the Anti-Aging market. None can rival Platelet-Rich Plasma in it’s effectiveness and simplicity. Hence there is a high demand for Anti-Aging-related PRP treatments. PRP combined with Micro Pigmentation procedure can be used for acne scars, open pores, stretch marks, hand rejuvenation, Lichen Sclerosus (skin condition in vulva), melasma and breast augmentation.

Another popular treatment is injections of fat mixed with PRP to improve the appearance of cellulite on hip and butt.

5. PRP for Pain Relief And Musculoskeletal Healing

Okay, so this is a very broad category where PRP is considered as the first-line treatment. Most talked about treatments in this category are for Achilles Tendonitis, Rotator Cuff, Tennis elbow, MCL Tear, Meniscus Tear, Plantar Fasciitis, Patellar Tendonitis, Piriformis Syndrome (Severe Buttocks Pain), ACL Tear, Failed Spine Surgery, Back Pain, Lower Back Pain, Hip and Pelvic Disorders, Degenerative Disc Disease, Golfer’s Elbow, Acromio-Clavicular Joint Pain, Labaral Tear, Bursitis, Neuropathic Pain Relief (Nerve Regeneration -Platelet Lysates are used where inflammation is an issue), Spinal Stenosis or Neck Pain, Avascular Necrosis (Osteonecrosis) Or Dying Bones.

Unlike the PRP treatments in the other categories, almost all of these PRP treatments in this category are placed under ultrasound guidance directly onto the affected tissue. Patients often see really good results in as little as two weeks.

6. PRP For Infertility

The treatment known as Ovarian Rejuvenation where Platelet-Rich Plasma is directly injected to the patient’s ovaries to reverse menopause or heal fertility issues. This treatment can also result in sexual regeneration. However, this is different from those treatments where PRP is injected into vagina for treating incontinence, looseness, dryness and lack of drive.

Another treatment is for reduction of Vaginal Atrophy symptoms using a combination of Lipofilling and PRP.

7. PRP treatments for COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)

Recently, physicians are also using PRP for treating lung problems such as allergies, asthma and COPD. The Platelet-Rich Plasma is mixed with with saline and inhaled through the nebulizer for regeneration of lung tissues.

It takes 1-2 months for the treatment to take full effect – but patients are seeing great results. One patient with COPD had his best lung condition in 7 years just 2 months after the treatment. Considering that COPD is a huge issue affecting the lives of more than 700,000 Americans every year, this is major feat.

Honorable mentions

PRP for Dry Eyes: This is one of those health categories where Platelet-Rich Plasma surprised everyone with the results. This treatment is catching up fast although PRP hasn’t become the de-facto treatment.

Erectile Disfunction: This is a widely popular treatment with mixed results. The treatment is popular because of it’s low-risk profile and potential high up side (literally!)

The Future Is Looking Bright

In summary, the trend for PRP is strong – and is here to stay. It’s not a one-trick pony. After all, it’s a natural healing mechanism. And the whole procedure takes a maximum of 60 minutes for the patients with zero recovery time.

That’s why thousands of clinics and major medical establishments are making it a standard treatment for many of the medical conditions they specialize in.

We are already seeing huge the demand for PRP treatments. We receive enquiries from patients who can’t find doctors doing PRP treatments in their area – and often times they are willing to travel for the treatments. This shows how bad the demand is.
