Dr. Olivia MaDan is pleased to offer numerous medical spa treatments to men and women residing in Nashville, Brentwood, Hendersonville, Franklin, Smyrna, and the surrounding areas of Tennessee.
What Is Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy was originally designed and developed as the go-to treatment for athletic injuries involving damage done to joints, ligaments, muscles, and tendons.
The treatment utilizes a small amount of the patient’s blood, injected into whatever area of the body is in need of restoration or rejuvenation. Each injection contains a large number of growth factors that, once released into the affected area, trigger a spike in repair activity and reproduction of cells specific to that area.
What Are the Benefits of PRP Therapy?
The benefits of platelet-rich plasma therapy are numerous and diverse, covering many body issues patients deal with on a daily basis. Some of the issues PRP therapy for patients in Nashville has been effective in resolving (beyond athletic injuries and other trauma) include thin, wispy or receding hair, acne scars, and signs of aging skin, both on the face and on the hands. Some of the most common benefits experienced include:
- Hair restoration and regrowth
- Facial rejuvenation with improved skin texture
- Hand rejuvenation with increased skin volume
- Overall skin rejuvenation and improved appearance
- Quicker recovery with less swelling and scarring following trauma
- Non-invasive and non-surgical procedure
- Almost no chance of allergic reaction because of using the patient’s own blood
- Outpatient treatment with little to no downtime following the procedure
Who Is a Good Candidate for PRP Therapy?
In most cases, if you’re an adult in good health, you’re probably a great candidate for the benefits offered by PRP therapy. In some situations, there may be blood or liver disorders in your history, certain skin issues or some types of medication you may be taking that could adversely affect the doctor’s decision to recommend PRP therapy in Nashville.
If you’re pregnant or have an active infection, you may be ruled out for PRP therapy at this particular time, but that doesn’t mean you couldn’t return at a later date for treatment.
