Regen Platelet-rich plasma is a versatile treatment to improve the volume, texture and tone of the skin as well as other uses .
Since its introduction to Australia five years ago, Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy under the brand name Regen PRP has become a highly sought-after non-surgical procedure for facial rejuvenation. Designed to improve the texture and tone of the skin, Regen PRP harnesses the beneficial functions of the body’s own blood platelets to stimulate new cell growth, helping to restore lost volume and improve complexion.
With age, the texture and appearance of the skin deteriorate and it often becomes dry. Platelet-rich plasma has been used in cosmetic medicine for many years to rejuvenate areas of the body including the face, neck, décolletage and the back of the hands, where aging is characterised by sagging skin, fine lines and loss of volume.
‘The term “platelet-rich plasma” is used to describe blood plasma with a high concentration of platelets, which are integral to tissue repair,’ explains Dr Jeremy Cumpston from NSW. ‘Regen PRP therapy targets the growth factor sound in these autologous (the patient’s own) platelets, which are then injected back into the patient to stimulate the body into producing new collagen and hyaluronic acid.’
