More and more people around are talking about "PRP": some say it helps recover quickly from sports sprains, while others claim it improves skin condition when used for anti-aging. However, many still have doubts: what exactly is this thing? Can it really both treat injuries and fight aging? Today, we will help you understand this technology from a scientific perspective.
The full name of PRP is "Platelet-Rich Plasma", which is derived from your own blood. The specific process consists of three steps:
Blood collection: A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm, just like the blood test done during a regular physical examination.
Centrifugation: The collected blood is processed with professional centrifugal equipment to separate platelets, red blood cells, and plasma from the blood.
Concentration: The plasma fraction rich in platelets is extracted, and this is PRP.
The key lies in "platelets" — when platelets are activated, they release dozens of "growth factors". These factors are like the body’s inherent "repair signals", which can activate the self-repair ability of damaged tissues. This is also the core reason why PRP can work. Moreover, since it is derived from the body itself, there will be no rejection reaction, and the risk of allergies is extremely low — this is a very important feature of PRP.

PRP in Sports Injuries: Helping the Body "Speed Up Repair"
Many people encounter the problem of "old sports injuries being hard to heal" after exercising—such as knee pain or Achilles tendon pain. In fact, this is because the repair ability of these body parts is inherently weak, and PRP can help "speed up" their recovery.
1. Degenerative Osteoarthritis: "Boosting Repair Capacity" for Worn Joints
Many people hear a "creaking sound" in their knees when going up and down stairs or squatting, and some even dare not put force on their knees due to pain. This is most likely degenerative osteoarthritis — the cartilage in the joints wears down over time, becoming thinner and thinner, and losing its "cushioning" function. The self-repair ability of cartilage is very poor, making it impossible for the worn cartilage to "grow back". However, after PRP is injected into the joint cavity, the growth factors contained in it can act directly on chondrocytes, stimulating cell proliferation and the synthesis of cartilage matrix. At the same time, it reduces inflammation in the joint, gradually helping the joint regain its "elasticity", alleviating pain and making movement more flexible.
2. Achilles Tendinitis / Plantar Fasciitis: Solving the Problem of "Recurrent Pain"
After standing for a long time or running, you may feel a stabbing pain in your heel, hurting with every step you take. Many people attribute this to "being tired," but in fact, it may be Achilles tendinitis or plantar fasciitis. The blood circulation in these areas is inherently poor; once damaged, recovery through "rest" is extremely slow, and the pain is prone to recurrence. PRP can be directly injected into the damaged Achilles tendon or fascia. The growth factors in it will accelerate the repair of local tissues and promote the regeneration of damaged fibers. This not only relieves the stabbing pain but also reduces the possibility of recurrence, allowing you to walk and exercise daily without being "overly cautious."
3. Ligament/Muscle Strains: Making Repair More "Solid"
When you accidentally sprain your ankle or strain a muscle during exercise, even if the pain subsides at the time, it may later "recur with a little exertion." This is because the strained ligament or muscle has not fully healed, and the fiber structure is not strong enough. PRP can promote the healing of ligament fibers and muscle cells, making the damaged area grow more "firm" and reducing the risk of re-injury. It is especially suitable for people who need to return to sports quickly.

PRP in Aesthetic Anti-Aging: It’s Not About "Filling"
Many people think anti-aging can only be achieved through "filling", but PRP takes a different approach—it doesn’t rely on foreign substances to "plump up" the skin; instead, it awakens the skin’s own repair ability.
1.For Early Aging Skin: Stimulate Collagen to "Grow on Its Own"
After the age of 25, collagen in the skin gradually decreases, leading to fine lines, sagging, and dull skin tone. When PRP is injected into the dermis layer of the skin, the growth factors in it will activate "fibroblasts" (the "worker cells" responsible for collagen synthesis), prompting them to accelerate the production of collagen, elastic fibers, and hyaluronic acid. These substances are the key to keeping the skin "plump and firm". As they gradually form, fine lines will fade, the skin will feel more elastic to the touch, and the skin tone will become brighter and clearer.
2. For Sensitive Skin / Acne Scars: Helping the Skin "Repair Its Barrier"
Sensitive skin that often reddens or peels, or shallow acne scars left after pimples heal—these are all signs of a damaged skin barrier and weak skin repair ability. The growth factors in PRP can promote the regeneration of epidermal cells, enhance the skin barrier’s "defensive and moisture-locking capabilities," and make sensitive skin more stable. For shallow acne scars, it can also stimulate the regeneration of local tissues, gradually making the acne scars smoother.
Reminder: PRP is not suitable for the following cases:
People with blood diseases (e.g., thrombocytopenia, coagulation disorders);
People whose skin is in an acute inflammatory phase (e.g., severe acne breakouts, eczema flare-ups);
Pregnant or lactating women (current safety data is insufficient);
People allergic to autologous blood products (extremely rare).

Whether it is repairing sports injuries or improving skin condition, the essence of PRP is to "awaken the body's own repair ability"; however, it is precisely because it relies on "autologous repair" that it is safer and more natural.

The Shuangwei Biotechnology PRP kit has the following advantages:
1.High degree of automation: The preparation and extraction process is fully automated. It is composed of a disposable platelet-rich plasma preparation kit and a medical centrifuge, achieving "one-time centrifugation, one-stop sealing, and one-click preparation", reducing manual operation errors and improving the preparation efficiency and accuracy.

2.Completely closed and pollution-free: The separation and extraction process is completely closed, effectively avoiding external pollution, reducing the risk of infection, and ensuring the quality, safety and reliability of the prepared PRP.

3.Convenient operation: The PRP with the required concentration can be obtained only through one-time centrifugation. The whole preparation process only takes 15 minutes, which greatly shortens the preparation time and improves the clinical work efficiency.

4.Precise and adjustable concentration: Through mode selection, the concentration can be precisely adjusted from 2 to 8 times. It can provide personalized PRP concentrations according to the conditions and treatment needs of different patients to achieve the best treatment effect.

5.Adjustable components: Consumables can be optionally configured to prepare leukocyte PRP or complex leukocyte PRP, realizing the adjustability of PRP components and further meeting the needs of different clinical application scenarios.
