The healing powers of your very own body can help to revitalize the look and feel of your skin or promote hair growth. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in Houston, Texas is produced using a patient’s own blood sample, which we draw here in the comfort of our practice within a matter of minutes. PRP is a nutrient-rich serum bursting with activated platelets and natural growth factors that promote enhanced and active regeneration where applied.

The process of preparing PRP involves taking a blood sample, similar to having blood taken for lab work. The sample is then processed through a centrifuge to isolate the plasma containing concentrated platelets and plasma. PRP will enhance the body’s natural healing process to stimulate production of new healthy skin and hair cells.
Because the PRP is from a patient’s own blood, the risk of any adverse reaction is very low. There is no concern for an allergic reaction or immune response. In general, PRP can produce mild irritation and redness at injection sites, although a significant allergic reaction is exceedingly unlikely. Headaches are also common after scalp injections.
PRP is a great option for many patients considering the low side effect profile. These injections help to enhance both thinning hair and healing of skin. Come see Dr. Bender to see if PRP is right for you!
Platelet rich plasma treatment can be paired with microneedling to boost the skin’s natural healing response and enhance your results. Microneedling will use tiny needles to help direct growth factors deeper into the skin where they help trigger the building of collagen and elastin.
