PLATELET RICH PLASMA TREATMENT
At HOULIHAN PHARMACY
​
Platelet-rich Plasma also called PRP is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a patient’s own blood, which is processed to concentrate the platelets and then re-injected into the patient’s skin.
​
The growth factors in the platelets promote healing and tissue regeneration, resulting in improved skin appearance. PRP is considered a safe and effective treatment option with minimal downtime and side effects.
​
Facial Rejuvenation with PRP therapy is being used as a non-surgical alternative to traditional facelifts to improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. The platelets release growth factors that stimulate collagen production and tissue regeneration, leading to a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
