Overview:
Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is a product that contains large number of platelets in a small plasma volume. PRP works as a fibrin tissue adhesive with tissue sealing and hemostatic characteristics. PRP differs from platelet-poor tissue and fibrin glue because PRP provides a unique ability to augment wound healing process and osteogenesis. PRP functions as a safe, biocompatible prompt hemostatic agent and fast-tracks epidermal, epithelial and endothelial regeneration. PRP enhances collagen synthesis, encourages angiogenesis, reduces dermal scarring, augments soft tissue healing and reverses inhibition of glucocorticoid would healing. High concentration of leukocyte in PRP offers additional antimicrobial effect.
PRP offers a wide range of clinical healing uses in otolaryngology, general surgery, cosmetic surgery and aesthetics, burn and would healing, cardiovascular surgery, oral and maxillofacial surgical procedures and others. PRP has proven effectiveness in treating chronic non-healing wounds and has been adopted as antiangiogenic agent. In surgical procedures, PRP reduces the risk of postoperative and preoperative bleeding both at donor and recipient sites; it augments soft tissue healing and facilitates stability to grafted tissue at recipient site owing to its adhesive and cohesive properties.
