Platelets are blood cells that help the body to form blood clots to halt bleeding and generated in the bone marrow along with white and red blood cells. Microscopic view of the platelets is like a tiny plate. A normal count of platelet is 150,000 to 450,000 platelets per microliter of blood. Platelet rich plasma (PRP), is a composed of high concentration of platelet rich plasma protein acquired from whole blood and centrifuged to differentiate between plasma and blood cells. PRP has several uses such as tissue healing, hair growth, inflammation reduction and others.
