VULVA
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
‘Vampire 0-shot’
Who is it suitable for?
For adults with vaginal dryness, to enhance lubrication and sensation with improvement of the quality of the vaginal wall. Also for women with mild stress urinary incontinence or who suffer with pain on sexual intercourse or for women who wish enhanced sensitivity in the clitoral complex.
What is involved?
The ‘0-Shot’ is an injection of PRP into the vagina/clitoris. Blood is taken from a vein in the arm and centrifuged to separate out the PRP. Local anaesthetic cream is applied to numb the areas which are then injected with local anaesthetic solution for complete comfort. The PRP is then injected into the area to be treated.
PRP is derived from a patient’s own blood by separating it from the red blood cells in a centrifuge. It contains multiple growth factors and when injected into an area, will stimulate the production of collagen and stimulate the formation of new blood vessels in that area.
