How Could PRP Be Used For Any Surgery?
The use of PRP varies from procedure to procedure. PRP is generally applied topically to the wound site. It can be used to control bleeding in applications such as cardiovascular and orthopedics. PRP is often applied to bone grafts and soft tissue grafts to stabilize the graft material. PRP is used to help fixate bone grafts as well as accelerate bone growth in orthopedic, spine and maxillary surgery. PRP is also used to seal wounds and accelerate soft tissue healing in facial plastic and cosmetic surgeries. Because of its potential to accelerate the healing process, it is also vastly use in other surgical specialties.
