PRP therapy uses the body’s own platelets to stimulate healing and rejuvenation. After a simple blood draw, the platelets are concentrated and then injected into targeted areas to promote collagen production, improve skin tone, and enhance overall skin health. Known for its regenerative properties, PRP is an effective option for natural-looking facial rejuvenation and hair restoration.
