DEVICE

Platelet-rich plasma

Blood will be drawn from a vein in the patient's arm into an 11 ml Eclipse platelet-rich plasma Tube. The blood is processed using a centrifuge machine from eclipse medical. After centrifugation, the platelet poor portion will be separated from the platelet-rich portion. The proximal nail folds are cleansed with alcohol. Using a 1ml syringe and 30g needle, 0.1-0.2 ml of platelet-rich plasma is injected into 8 proximal nail folds.
