PRP Q & A

What is PRP?

PRP is platelet-rich plasma, a serum derived from the patient’s blood and injected into the treatment site to boost healing and cell growth. Your doctor prepares PRP at the clinic using specialized technology to separate the platelets from a sample of your blood.

Platelets are an essential component of your blood, containing growth factors which activate the body’s healing process. By injecting a concentration of platelets into tissues that are struggling to repair themselves naturally, your body receives a massive boost that enables it to heal and regenerate those tissues.

The many medical and cosmetic uses for PRP range from healing chronic pain to performing nonsurgical face-lifts, but at Thrive Men’s Clinic your doctors use PRP for treating erectile dysfunction and unwanted hair loss. Often PRP is combined with stem cells or a regenerative extracellular matrix for a compounded effect providing an even greater boost to your therapy.

How does PRP help with erectile dysfunction?

The growth factors in PRP can restore health to the penis when you’re suffering from the effects of diseases and environmental factors such as:

    • Diabetes
    • Hypertension
    • Vascular disease
    • Trauma
    • Radiation damage

By promoting new tissue growth, blood flow to the penis increases, helping you to achieve and prolong an erection. You also gain increased sensitivity and stamina, which contributes to a more pleasurable experience.

Many men find PRP therapy increases the length and girth of their penis, and they also achieve firmer erections. PRP therapy also helps relieve erectile pain and decrease the curvature of the penis in men who have Peyronie’s disease.

How does PRP help with hair loss?​

Research into how PRP works found that in high concentrations, platelets prolong the hair’s growing phase. Your doctor injects PRP into your scalp where you have hair loss, stimulating the hair follicles into growing new hairs.

Typically, these treatments with PRP are combined with Acell, a regenerative extracellular matrix compound that works synergistically with PRP to maximize the benefit in stimulating hair follicle activity and promoting restored hair growth.

Treatments typically consist of injections once a month for the first three months, then 3-4 times a year for up to two years. The precise schedule depends on factors like:

    • Genetics
    • Pattern of baldness
    • Amount of hair loss
    • Age
    • Hormone levels

PRP / Acell therapy is more likely to be successful if you lost your hair within the last five years, as hair follicles that have been dormant for longer are less likely to respond to the stimulation.

PRP / Acell therapy is a safe form of treatment that could have a significant effect on your well-being and self-esteem.
