Cellenis® Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

Platelet Rich Plasma is an appropriate technique for the treatment of photoinduced aging.

Platelets are cells devoid of a nucleus but rich in mitochondria, organelles and granules capable of synthesizing and storing a large number of growth factors, which are biologically very active proteins that when they leave the extravascular space are responsible for platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) chemotacticism on other cells in the environment, favoring their proliferation and differentiation, while stimulating angiogenesis and regeneration of the extracellular matrix Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta).

The main function of platelets is to trigger the healing process and the regeneration of injured tissues through a chain reaction that leads to repair in a process that lasts months despite the fact that the factors synthesized and stored in them have a half-life of a few hours.

This process that occurs naturally for the repair of an injured tissue can be started artificially starting from the centrifugation of a small amount of peripheral blood of the patient, from which the part of the plasma that corresponds to the concentrated platelets is obtained.

This platelet-enriched serum is injects immediately into the desired skin tissue regenerate at an accelerated rate without actually causing injury.

The results obtained are satisfactory, especially in skin aging, dark circles and alopecia.
