Platelet Rich plasma
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a procedure that uses a concentrated component of your own blood. A small sample of blood is collected and processed to increase the concentration of platelets. The platelet- rich portion is prepared for use during the same clinical session. The entire process is performed in clinic by a registered health practitioner.
