Hands-On Training in Medical, Alopecia, and Aesthetic Applications for PRP and Stem Cell Therapies.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatments for aesthetic purposes have grown increasingly popular as patients learn about the procedures’ many benefits, both long-term and permanent. Because PRP treatments cost between $600 - $1,800 per patient (depending on indications aesthetically or medically), physicians can increase cash revenues with little or no capital expenditure.

PRP treatments can be the ideal complement to other aesthetic injectable procedures, including Botulinum Toxin-A and dermal fillers. What’s more, PRP therapies can be easily incorporated into any type of medical or aesthetic practice.

During PRP procedures, the patient’s blood is separated via a variety of techniques, which extract a concentration of autologous platelets. When activated, these platelets release adhesive glycoproteins (vitronectin, fibronectin, and fibrin) as well as growth factors, which form a fibrin mesh beneath the tissue.

Prerequisite Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Training: Workshop registrants can access all prerequisite and preparatory course materials using Empire’s state-of-the-art educational portal (mymembersportal.com). The practitioner portal also includes vital information you will need for your practice, such as treatment forms, consent forms, patient intake forms, before/after photos, and much more).

You must complete the prerequisite coursework, which includes video, lecture presentations, and didactic materials (full-color manual) before attending the live patient practice hands-on training. You may also choose the Empire-Virtual-Training™ and watch the required “live” presentations on your mobile device. Instructors encourage participant engagement through our online “chat “option. Each “virtual” session includes dedicated time for Q and A.

Live patient hands-on practice training is offered through live workshops (see full calendar), Centers of Excellence (see calendar), and custom preceptorships (call to schedule). The PRP Live patient practice training is conducted in the afternoon. To view our complete AGENDA with course details and start and finish times, click on AGENDA.

The growth factors that are released when the concentrated autologous platelets are activated in the soft tissue include:

  • Connective tissue growth factor (i.e., wound healing)
  • Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β)
  • Insulin-like growth factor - I & II (ILGF)
  • Epidermal growth factor (EGF)
  • Interleukin 8
  • Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (i.e., organ regeneration)
  • Keratinocyte growth factor (i.e. ,wound healing, aesthetics)
  • Fibroblast growth factor (i.e. ,wound healing, aesthetics)

When these growth factors and proteins bind with the cellular receptors of skin tissue (including endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and osteoblasts) at the injection point, they trigger a variety of intercellular events that help mediate:

  • Production of extracellular matrix proteins
  • Migration of stem cells to injection area
  • Angiogenesis
  • New cell proliferation

This growth, as well as tissue repair, will continue up to five weeks after the patient receives injections. This results in the promotion of local tissue growth and permanent repair of damaged tissue. Unlike many other aesthetic treatments, PRP is non-synthetic and so will not be reabsorbed or synthesized by bacteria.
