What it is: PRP is platelet-rich plasma obtained from your own blood, with growth factors that promote tissue regeneration.
Applied to the intimate area: it seeks to improve tissue quality, hydration, and comfort in a regenerative and non-surgical way.
It is autologous: as it comes from your own blood, its tolerance profile is very favorable.
Results: progressive, as the tissue responds. They may vary between individuals.
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is a regenerative technique well-known in facial and hair aesthetic medicine, and it also has an application in the female intimate area within aesthetic gynecology. It is a non-surgical procedure that uses the growth factors from your own blood to promote tissue regeneration. In this article, we explain it clearly.
What is PRP
Platelet-rich plasma is obtained from a small sample of your blood. Through centrifugation, the platelet-rich plasma fraction, which contains growth factors, is concentrated. These factors are natural signals that the body uses to repair and regenerate tissues. Being an autologous product — derived from yourself — its tolerance profile is very favorable.
How it is applied to the intimate area
Once prepared, PRP is applied via micro-injections to the treatment area. The objective is to stimulate tissue regeneration to improve its quality, hydration, and comfort. It is not a sexual function treatment or a surgical procedure: it is a regenerative aesthetic medicine technique.
What concerns it can address
- Sensation of dryness or lack of hydration in the intimate area.
- Loss of tissue quality and elasticity associated with postpartum, menopause, or age.
- Discomfort or inconvenience related to these tissue changes.
Before considering PRP, a medical evaluation rules out causes that require a different gynecological approach. Aesthetic gynecology does not replace regular gynecological follow-up.
What to expect from the session
The procedure includes blood extraction, preparation, and application, and is performed in the clinic. Anesthetic cream is usually used for your comfort. Discomfort is generally mild, and most women resume their activities shortly after, following the given recommendations.
Results are progressive: the tissue needs time to respond to the regenerative stimulus. A protocol of several sessions is often proposed, which is defined individually.
