Understanding PRP Therapy for Nasolabial Folds
Nasolabial folds, often referred to as smile lines, are the lines that form from the nose to the corners of the mouth. The PRP treatment involves extracting platelets from a patient's own blood and injecting them into the areas where nasolabial folds appear. This method stimulates skin regeneration and enhances the overall texture of the skin, ultimately reducing the prominence of these lines.
At Seishin Beauty Clinic, Dr. Maeda and his team have dedicated over 20 years to researching and refining this procedure. Their extensive work led to a paper on the subject being published in the prestigious medical journal "PRS (Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery)" in 2015, which received the award for best paper in 2016.
