PRP injections treat a list of orthopedic conditions, including knee osteoarthritis but may be used on other joints as well.
Platelet-rich plasma therapy, sometimes called PRP therapy or autologous conditioned plasma (ACP) therapy, attempts to take advantage of the blood’s natural healing properties to repair damaged cartilage, tendons, ligaments, muscles, or even bone.
Although not considered standard practice, many people are turning to PRP injections to treat an expanding list of orthopedic conditions, including osteoarthritis. It is most commonly used for knee osteoarthritis but may be used on other joints as well.
Give yourself the gift of youthful, glowing skin with a PRP facial. Offered at Longevity Care Clinic, a PRP facial will deliver exceptional results without the downtime of cosmetic surgery. A platelet-rich plasma facial is a relaxing spa amenity that helps the body produce collagen, which is responsible for that youthful, bouncy, glowing skin we want. As we age, the body’s production of collagen and elastin slows. Once we reach the age of 40, our collagen production drops to 50% of what it was in our early 20s.
Collagen is a structural protein found in our extracellular matrix. A PRP facial uses our plasma to stimulate collagen production, skin renewal, cell growth, and tissue regeneration. Visible results can be seen after the first treatment. Consider a PRP facial if you’re concerned about fine lines, wrinkles, or lax skin. It’s a non-invasive procedure with no downtime that guarantees results.
The gold standard of rejuvenating facials, a PRP facial is safe, effective, and an all-natural alternative that improves the appearance of your skin’s tone and texture. By injecting your plasma into your skin, you are messaging your body to ramp up its collagen production without wounding the skin like other treatments. You will immediately see visible results such as restored volume, increased skin laxity, and improved tone and texture. The best part is that your unique “product” will always be available if you want additional treatments.

Treating Osteoarthritis with PRP
When treating osteoarthritis with platelet-rich plasma, PRP is injected directly into the affected joint. The goal is to:
Reduce pain
Improve joint function
Slow, halt and even repair damage to the cartilage
Platelet-rich plasma is derived from a sample of the patient’s blood. The therapeutic injections contain plasma with a higher concentration of platelets than normal blood.
What is Plasma?
Plasma is the liquid component of blood; it is mostly water but includes proteins, nutrients, glucose, and antibodies, among other elements.
What is Platelet Rich Plasma?
PRP is safe and effective for all skin types and has proven to diminish fine lines, texture, and hyperpigmentation that creep up on us as we age. The results: Younger, smoother-looking skin.
How does it work?
Once you schedule your appointment, you will come into the office, and we will draw your blood. This is then injected into different body areas where you want to see smoother, younger-looking skin. We then place your blood into a centrifuge that isolates the number of growth factors. These growth factors are responsible for collagen production, skin renewal, cell growth, and tissue regeneration.
How is platelet-rich plasma made?
The most common way to prepare PRP involves centrifuging a patient’s blood sample. A vial of blood is placed in a centrifuge, where it is spun at intensely high speeds. The spinning causes the blood to separate into layers:
Red blood cells, approximately 45% of blood, are forced to the bottom of the vial.
White blood cells and platelets form a thin middle layer, called a buffy coat, which comprises less than 1% of the centrifuged blood.
“Platelet-poor” plasma, or plasma with a low concentration of platelets, makes up the remaining top layer, about 55% of the centrifuged blood sample.
Once the centrifuge process is complete, the doctor or medical technician will remove the vial from the centrifuge and prepare the PRP solution for injection.
Additional benefits of PRP:
PRP is often called liquid gold for your skin. There are proven benefits of using PRP to restore hair loss! No need to use toxic chemicals for thicker, fuller hair. PRP can be used to treat thinning hair in both men and women with positive results.
PRP injections are also liquid-gold for your skin.
