Usually we know that the Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a procedure that is done with a lot of enthusiasm by many professionals, it offers indiscriminately, as a treatment for all of the world when the reality is that it should be so.
The problem for the PRP is, to my way of seeing it, too serious and delicate, to the point that there are professionals that are not from the field of Regenerative Medicine, with this feature, without foundations, and simply for the ease of one of the techniques of work to get a “PRP”.
The reality is that we know that in traditional medicine to perform a treatment, it's not enough to just know the farmaco that we are going to eat, but also we need to know the dose.
The same thing happens in Regenerative Medicine. It's not enough to know how to do it, even with legal restrictions, but you must know the dose.
Nothing can be deployed correctly with a result expected positive but is quantified and measured. It is one of the biggest mistakes that we found in 99% of the clinics of Regenerative Medicine. Don't know what that is placed.
If you have placed PRP, we have been told that dose will apply? Or you just extracted 2 or 4 tubes of blood, and simply began to spin in front of you, without any measures for biosecurity (laminar flow cabinet or closed system) and has been applied to it.
- The big question would be: because he had 2 or 4 tubes?
- Which is the foundation.. we have told the dose? That dose reaches for her problem?
One of the characteristics that distinguish us in Stem Cell Therapy Argentinais that all that apply, we know the dosage and the amount of product that we put. In this case the platelets.
Our protocols PRP always contain over 15 billion (15 Billions) of platelets to the treatments that we offer, level, orthopedic, hair, and anti-aging.
This treatment is what we call PRP HIPERCONCENTRADOdespite the fact that many colleagues and competitors unfair mainly from Buenos Aires, clinging to this terminology that you have learned in our courses, virtual/face-to-face, we are the only ones that we have published on portals scientists with this terminology.
This is what we get after several analysis performed in our laboratory of biochemistry regenerative and our services hemoterapia, where, along with the scientific evidence for colleagues-professionals of high rigor cientifico, have been shown when the PRP works and does not work.
This is so that if you are patient, and has conducted a treatment with PRP and has not had a result, know that it could have been the inadequate dose, has not worked. Not to worry!
Maybe it is easier to explain as an example that has taken an ibuprofen 100mg/day for severe pain, where the appropriate dose should have been 600 or 800 mg every 12 hs.
Then: you May have been placed 1 billion platelets, and the standard dose should be 6 to 20 billion.
In these cases, my advice is to always seek a professional licensed and accredited in Regenerative Medicine and Advanced Therapies.
