Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, also known as autologous rejuvenation therapy, the 'vampire facelift', and by the brand names MyCells® and Selphyl® involves harvesting platelets from the patientâs own blood in order to inject them into problem skin areas. Starting with the extraction of a minimal amount of the patients blood which is then placed in a centrifuge to spin down the blood which separates the red blood cells from the platelet rich plasma. Platelets contain a high content of “growth factors“ proteins that help to heal injured tissue or damaged skin. Upon re-injection the platelets release their growth factors which trigger surrounding cells to proliferate, in turn stimulating repair, increasing volume and rejuvenating the skin.
