Due to the variety of possible uses and numerous studies conducted, PRP is probably the main product based on platelets that is being investigated for tissue regeneration. In addition to numerous other uses, dermatologists are using PRP to give patients younger-looking skin.

PRP is a small volume platelet concentrate obtained after whole blood centrifugation to obtain plasma. This platelet-rich plasma is then re-injected into the treated area thus stimulating natural regeneration processes. PRP Cosmetic treatments are available at The One Spa Chicago.
