What is Edmonton Platelet Rich Plasms (PRP) Therapy?
One of the advances in facial and body rejuvenation is here. Edmonton’s Advanced Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) harnesses the regenerative and restorative powers of our own bodies to re-grow and regenerate skin cells and tissues while nurturing new supportive skin structures. It is a rejuvenating product that uses the components of our own blood. It is extremely well tolerated with virtually no possibilities of allergic reactions while providing predictable and long-lasting results. It can be used to correct many problems including stubborn facial lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
Edmonton’s Youthful Image Clinic has been performing PRP for over 15 years to treat a variety of medical and cosmetic concerns. We use proprietary technology that harvests at least 40cc of whole blood. The prepared RP is then injected or applied to the treated zones with needles, cannular or topically.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why and how does Edmonton PRP work?
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is natural as it uses our own body’s safe and proven restorative and regenerative machinery. When the blood is drawn from the client (at least 40cc of whole blood), it is separated into PRP and concentrated red blood cells fractions. We then use the PRP to treat clients. That PRP fraction contains healing compounds within platelets and within the surrounding fluid.
PRP is readily accepted by our bodies enhancing natural tissue building elements. When injected into the skin, PRP activates and promotes new cell growth and collagen formation through the release of various growth factors and other agents related to tissue healing and regeneration. As such, it takes several weeks for the full effect to show.
It is not like any other injectable rejuvenating product as only collagen stimulators and cell growth promoters are used rather than filler itself. Furthermore, PRP gently blends with surrounding tissues making its effects very natural. You have choices in addressing your skin concerns!

Can Edmonton PRP be combined with other products and procedures?
Successful rejuvenation strategies need to address different patient concerns. As such, it is very common to use different technologies and treatments to address the unique requirements and needs of each patient. Platelet Rich Plasma can be used alone or in combination with other treatments including Skin Boosters, Laser Treatments, neuromodulators (e.g. Dysport®, Xeomin®, Botox®, and others), home treatments as well as cosmetic fillers (e.g. Restylane®, Juvederm®, Radiesse®, and others), fat grafting and soft tissue volumizers such as Sculptra®.
In many cases, a synergistic approach is needed to produce the Edmonton Youthful Image optimal results. We strive to achieve desired results and not just treat clients with A or B. It is all about what we want to achieve and the approach to have it accomplished.

What are the benefits of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) over other treatments?
Another major advantage of PRP is the readily accessible and plentiful source. Although only a small amount of blood (at least 40cc of whole blood) is needed for each treatment. Larger treatments and multiple treatments are possible. Our body constantly produces blood and regulates its contents making PRP treatments very safe.

What is the recovery and what are the side effects after Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment?
PRP, being a collagen and cell growth stimulator and enhancer, takes time to work. Once the initial swelling diminishes, the production of new cells, collagen, and support structures starts. In the next 6–8 weeks, the effects of PRP treatment become gradually evident with smoother lines and younger-looking skin. Its effects are long-lasting and satisfactory results can be achieved with one treatment, however, repeat treatments may be needed to maintain or enhance results.
