PRP in Dermatology: Scientific Foundations and Clinical Advancements
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) has emerged as one of the most impactful regenerative therapies in modern dermatology. By utilizing autologous growth factors, PRP enhances skin regeneration at the cellular level, offering evidence-based solutions for both medical and aesthetic dermatologic conditions.
PRP is prepared from the patient’s own blood through controlled centrifugation, resulting in a plasma fraction rich in platelets, cytokines, and growth factors such as PDGF, TGF-β, and VEGF. These biological mediators stimulate fibroblast proliferation, angiogenesis, and collagen synthesis—key mechanisms responsible for skin rejuvenation and tissue repair.
In dermatology, PRP is widely used for skin aging, acne scarring, hair loss, and post-procedural healing. Clinical observations demonstrate improved skin texture, enhanced elasticity, reduced fine lines, and accelerated recovery when PRP is incorporated into treatment protocols.
The quality of PRP outcomes is directly linked to the preparation system. CE Marked – Class IIb PRP systems ensure standardized platelet concentration, vacuum stability, and reproducibility, which are critical for predictable clinical results. Today, PRP therapy has been used in more than 4,000,000 procedures worldwide, reflecting its growing acceptance in dermatologic practice.
As dermatology continues to shift toward regenerative and minimally invasive therapies, PRP stands as a cornerstone technology bridging science, safety, and clinical efficacy.
