Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
About Platelet-Rich-Plasma
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses injections of a concentration of a patient’s own platelets to accelerate the healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles and joints. In this way, PRP injections use each individual patient’s own healing system to improve musculoskeletal problems.

Many Benefit of PRP Therapy
The treatment involves reinjecting your own platelet rich plasma into your skin, delivering an abundance of growth factors that stimulate the body’s natural healing response. This helps you to achieve total rejuvenation.
1
Harness the Natural Power of Your Body
Platelet-Rich Plasma injections are a process in which your body’s own growth factors, naturally found in your plasma are concentrated to a small volume and injected for a variety of purposes. At Citidrips, we use PRP to assist with hair and skin rejuvenation. Injections are only done by our physician and physician assistant.

Hair Rejuvenation
Have you noticed balding or thinning hair? PRP may be right for you. Come in today for a consultation and evaluation! PRP for hair rejuvenation usually requires 2-3 treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Maintenance is also recommended every 6 months to continue to aid in hair fullness.
3
Cosmetic and Skin Improvement
Platelet-Rich Plasma injections can be used for skin rejuvenation through the face as well as body. This can be used independently, or alongside Botox and Filler injections. Facial scars, such as acne scars, wrinkles, and deep body lines, and cellulite are examples of cosmetic issues that PRP may be able to assist with.

Knee Pain & Arthritis
PRP is a great option for helping improve chronic knee pain or knee problems. A consultation would be required prior to treatment. Platelet-Rich Plasma can help to repair knee problems such as arthritis, chronic pain associated with previous fractures, and many other problems. Your own body helps your joints to heal naturally.
What Should I Expect?
Generally, your PRP appointment would take about 1-2 hours. It involves initially drawing blood, which we then centrifuge to concentrate the growth factors. Once we have created the platelet-rich plasma, we use a tiny syringe to inject into the desired area. Improvement continues over 4-6 weeks, hence the waiting period in between treatments.
Cost per treatment
Cosmetic Injections: Varies from $299-$599, depending on area
Knee Injections: $299 per injection
Usually, 2-3 PRP treatments are required for full results. Full results occur over a period of 12 or more weeks.
