Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

PRP is a revolutionary non-surgical treatment that uses the patient’s own blood platelets to activate growth factors that rejuvenate sexual function in both men and women. The human body has a remarkable capacity to heal itself. Regeneration of new tissue is accomplished by the natural production of stem cells. PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) involves the application of concentrated platelets rich in bioactive proteins, which release growth factors in order to stimulate cellular regeneration and accelerate tissue repair. The benefits of PRP were initially used in wound healing, dentistry, and the treatment of sports injuries, but have now evolved to address aesthetic concerns and physiological dysfunction. PRP is one of the most advanced, effective natural treatments for cellular rejuvenation throughout the body.

What Is PRP?

PRP is in the category of regenerative autologous treatments, which means it comes from your own blood and can stimulate cellular regeneration and tissue repair. Platelets are one of the cells in our blood, and when activated, they can release growth factors and other proteins.

How Does PRP Work?

It begins with a simple blood draw. Then, the platelets are separated and concentrated. The resulting platelet-rich plasma is then injected into multiple areas of the penis or vagina that are most important to sexual response. These areas are numbed with a local anesthetic cream before injection, causing patients to experience little to no pain. Results can be seen in as little as days and weeks after the treatment.
