What Is PRP Therapy?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is produced by drawing a small sample of your own blood — typically 15–60ml depending on the application — and processing it in an FDA-cleared centrifuge that spins the blood at high speed to separate its components. The result is a concentrated layer of platelets at 3–5 times their normal density in blood, suspended in a small volume of plasma. This platelet-rich concentrate is then injected into the targeted tissue.
Platelets are not simply clotting agents — they are the body's first responders to injury, carrying over 30 bioactive proteins including PDGF (platelet-derived growth factor), VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor), TGF-β (transforming growth factor), EGF (epidermal growth factor), and IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor). When delivered at therapeutic concentration, these growth factors initiate a coordinated biological response: fibroblasts migrate and produce collagen and elastin; endothelial cells form new blood vessels; stem and progenitor cells are mobilized; nerve tissue repairs. The specific cascade depends on the target tissue — penile tissue responds differently from a joint, a hair follicle, or facial dermis — which is why PRP is not a single treatment but a platform technology applied across multiple clinical indications.
Dr. Ortiz evaluates every PRP patient through a thorough clinical assessment before determining the most appropriate treatment, protocol, and whether PRP should be used alone or combined with complementary therapies available at the clinic. Because all PRP uses your own blood, there is no risk of allergic reaction, rejection, or disease transmission from the PRP itself.
The O-Shot® delivers PRP into the clitoris and anterior vaginal wall to improve sexual arousal, sensitivity, lubrication, orgasmic function, and mild urinary incontinence using your body's own growth factors to regenerate tissue from within.

The P-Shot® delivers PRP into penile tissue to support erectile function, sensitivity, and — where evidence is strongest — the management of Peyronie's disease, reducing curvature and plaque through PRP's anti-fibrotic and regenerative properties.

The Vampire Facelift® combines PRP with hyaluronic acid filler for immediate facial volume and progressive collagen regeneration — addressing skin quality, fine lines, facial contour, and tissue vitality that filler alone cannot achieve.

The Vampire Breast Lift® uses PRP to improve breast skin quality, firmness, and contour, and to restore nipple sensitivity — particularly for women navigating post-pregnancy changes, hormonal shifts, or the desire for non-surgical breast rejuvenation.

PRP reactivates dormant hair follicles, extends the active growth phase, and improves hair density and thickness in androgenetic alopecia — evaluated alongside the hormonal and nutritional factors that most hair clinics never assess.

Joint Restoration PRP Body: PRP for joint restoration delivers concentrated growth factors directly into damaged joints — reducing chronic inflammation, supporting cartilage health, and improving function in the knee, hip, shoulder, and other joints without cortisone or surgery.
How It Helps
Your Own Biology, Zero Foreign Material
Zero Foreign Material Body: Every PRP treatment uses growth factors concentrated from your own blood.
There is no synthetic drug, foreign protein, or external biologic eliminating the risk of allergic reaction, rejection, or dependency.
The growth factors driving your results are the same ones your body has always used to heal itself, delivered at therapeutic concentration to tissue that needs them most.
Addresses Biology, Not Just Symptoms Body
Cortisone suppresses joint inflammation temporarily. Hair growth supplements support the scalp surface. PRP stimulates the biological processes that underlie healing and regeneration in the target tissue itself angiogenesis, collagen synthesis, nerve repair, follicular reactivation.
The difference is biological change versus symptom management. Results develop over weeks to months as the healing cascade unfolds and they last because the tissue has genuinely changed.
Physician-Led, Personalized to Your Clinical Picture Body
Dr. Ortiz evaluates every PRP patient through a comprehensive clinical consultation reviewing the specific indication, contributing factors, and whether PRP should be combined with hormone optimization, peptide therapy, Alma Duo acoustic wave therapy, or IV nutritional support for maximum clinical effect.
The protocol is designed around your biology, not a standard template applied to every patient who walks in.

Questions Answered
Q1: What conditions can PRP treat at DNA Wellness? Dr. Ortiz offers PRP across six primary applications: the O-Shot® for women's sexual health and urinary continence; the P-Shot® for men's erectile function and Peyronie's disease; the Vampire Facelift® for facial rejuvenation combining PRP with hyaluronic acid filler; the Vampire Breast Lift® for breast skin quality and nipple sensitivity; hair restoration PRP for androgenetic alopecia and hormone-related hair thinning; and joint restoration PRP for knee, hip, shoulder, and connective tissue pain. Each application uses the same PRP technology but delivers it with a technique, volume, and anatomical precision specific to the target tissue and clinical indication.
Q2: Is PRP safe? Are there risks? Because PRP uses your own blood — no synthetic drugs, foreign proteins, or external biologics — the risk of allergic reaction or rejection is essentially eliminated. The primary risks are those common to any injectable procedure: mild bruising, swelling, and soreness at the injection site, typically resolving within 2–5 days. Infection risk is minimized through sterile technique. Application-specific considerations — such as mammography notification after breast PRP, or pausing NSAIDs before joint PRP — are reviewed by Dr. Ortiz at your consultation. There are no systemic drug side effects because PRP is not a drug.
Q3: How many PRP sessions will I need? This varies by application and individual response. Sexual health applications (O-Shot®, P-Shot®) typically begin with 1–2 sessions. Hair restoration requires an initial series of 3–4 sessions. Joint restoration typically uses 1–3 injections. Facial rejuvenation (Vampire Facelift®) is usually a single session, assessed at 12 weeks. Most applications benefit from maintenance sessions every 12–18 months. Dr. Ortiz determines the appropriate protocol at consultation based on your specific indication and clinical picture — not a one-size-fits-all schedule.
Q4: Can PRP be combined with other treatments? Yes — and for many patients, combination approaches produce meaningfully better outcomes. Common combinations at DNA Wellness include: PRP with hormone optimization (especially for hair loss and sexual wellness applications where hormonal contributors are present); PRP with Alma Duo acoustic wave therapy for male erectile dysfunction; PRP with IV nutrient therapy to support the systemic healing environment; and PRP with peptide therapy (TB-500, BPC-157 when available) for joint and musculoskeletal applications. Dr. Ortiz designs integrated protocols that address both the local tissue and the systemic biology contributing to your condition.
