Platelet-rich plasma has got many applications in the healthcare industry, especially in areas such as orthopedic surgeries, treatment of sports injuries and treatment of neurological diseases, amongst others. In platelet-rich plasma therapy, a platelet-rich gel is used in which the concentration of platelets is much higher, more than four to eight times higher than the concentration of normal blood platelets. Besides these applications, the platelet-rich plasma therapy is also finding new applications in treatment of medical conditions such as erectile dysfunction, and in the facelift surgeries. As platelet-rich plasma is derived from blood plasma along with several other growth factors, it facilitates a quick healing of bone tissues and other soft tissues.
