PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. A small amount of the patient’s own blood is drawn and processed in a centrifuge to separate a concentrated solution of platelets and growth factors, which is then injected into or applied topically to the skin (often with a microneedling device). It can help address the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, uneven texture and some scarring, including acne scarring.
