Single vs. Double Spin PRP Protocols

Published: 01/28/2025

When it comes to Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapies, the ability to customize PRP concentration levels can make a significant difference in treatment outcomes. Dr. PRP USA devices offer a streamlined approach for producing high-quality PRP with both single spin and double spin protocols. Here, we break down the key differences, benefits, and applications of these two protocols, helping you make informed choices for your practice.

The Basics of Dr. PRP Protocols

Dr. PRP USA devices are engineered to simplify the PRP preparation process, providing exceptional results in both single and double spin protocols. Each protocol serves a unique purpose:

Single Spin PRP Protocol

  • Duration: 4 minutes at 3,400 RPM
  • Result: Produces high-quality PRP with a concentration factor of 2–4x platelets.
  • Ideal Applications:
    • Aesthetic Procedures
    • Hair Restoration
    • Wound Healing
    • Sports Medicine
    • Ophthalmology
    • Dentistry

Double Spin PRP Protocol

  • Duration: 4 minutes (initial spin) at 3,400 RPM + 2 minutes (second spin) at 3,500 RPM
  • Result: Produces an adjustable, highly concentrated PRP with a platelet concentration of 5–8x.
  • Ideal Applications:
    • Orthopedics
    • Advanced Wound Healing
    • Sexual Health
    • Fertility
    • Chronic Conditions
    • Veterinary Medicine

Why Choose a Single Spin PRP Protocol?

The single spin protocol is designed for convenience and efficiency. In just 4 minutes, you can produce high-quality PRP with a clear separation between the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and red blood cells (RBC). This makes it ideal for:

  • Practices prioritizing quick turnaround times.
  • Procedures where a moderate concentration of platelets is sufficient to achieve optimal results.

Step-by-Step Guide for Single Spin Protocol:

  1. Set the centrifuge rotation at 3,400 RPM and the timer for 4 minutes.
  2. Once complete, remove the Dr. PRP USA kit and identify the separation line between PRP and RBC.
  3. Complete the lock out procedure to physically separate the platelets and plasma from RBC.
  4. Your PRP is ready for use without additional steps.

Applications Highlight: Single Spin Protocol in Action

The single spin protocol offers fast and effective PRP preparation, making it a go-to choice for various treatments:

  • Aesthetic Procedures: Boost skin rejuvenation and elasticity with PRP that supports collagen production. Examples include facial treatments for fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
  • Hair Restoration: Encourage hair follicle regeneration and reduce thinning with PRP that promotes blood flow and nutrient delivery to the scalp, commonly used for male and female pattern baldness.
  • Eye Drops: PRP-based eye drops are gaining popularity for treating conditions such as dry eye syndrome and corneal ulcers by promoting ocular surface healing and reducing inflammation.
  • Dentistry Applications: Single spin PRP can be applied for oral surgeries, helping improve healing in procedures like dental implants or gum regeneration.

By delivering reliable results in just one step, the single spin protocol maximizes efficiency while meeting the needs of many medical and aesthetic applications.

Why Choose a Double Spin PRP Protocol?

For treatments requiring higher platelet concentrations, the double spin protocol is a game-changer. By centrifuging the sample a second time, you can:

  • Remove platelet-poor plasma (PPP), leaving a concentrated PRP.
  • Tailor the PRP’s volume and concentration to the specific needs of advanced applications, such as joint injections or regenerative therapies.

Step-by-Step Guide for Double Spin Protocol:

  1. Complete the single spin process as described above.
  2. After completing the lock out process, place the Dr. PRP USA kit back into the centrifuge with a counterweight positioned diagonally.
  3. Set the centrifuge at 3,500 RPM for 2 minutes.
  4. After the second spin, remove enough PPP to achieve a highly concentrated PRP for precise therapeutic applications.

Applications Highlight: Double Spin Protocol in Action

The double spin protocol shines in specialized treatments, including:

  • Orthopedics: Removing a portion of PPP enhances the PRP’s effectiveness for joint injections, providing targeted relief for conditions like osteoarthritis, rotator cuff injuries, and tendonitis.
  • Wound Healing: Highly concentrated PRP accelerates tissue regeneration in chronic wounds, severe burns, and post-surgical recovery.
  • Sexual Health: Tailored PRP concentrations improve outcomes in treatments for erectile dysfunction, vaginal rejuvenation, and other sexual health concerns by promoting tissue regeneration and increased blood flow.
  • Fertility: Advanced concentration levels support uterine and ovarian health, aiding in regenerative gynecological procedures such as improving uterine lining thickness.
  • Chronic Conditions: Particularly beneficial for addressing complex injuries or degenerative conditions where a stronger PRP concentration is required.
  • Veterinary Medicine: High-concentration PRP can also be used in animal care, such as treating joint issues or wounds in horses and dogs.
