FAQs
What can the Arthrex ACP double syringe be used for?
The Arthrex ACP double syringe is used for the preparation of fluid PRF from the patient’s own blood. When injected into the treatment area, this fluid PRF stimulates the body’s own hyaluronic acid and collagen synthesis, cell proliferation, and regeneration. Studies show its clinical effectiveness for skin rejuvenation, wound treatment, scar reduction, hair restoration, and more.5
What does ACP stand for? And is there a difference between ACP and fluid PRF?
ACP stands for “autologous conditioned plasma” and can be classified as a fluid PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) system as it effectively concentrates the patient’s platelets in the plasma phase and does not involve the usage of any synthetic additives for anticoagulation or separation. It is 100% autologous and can be readily injected after preparation into the treatment area as it is still liquid after the centrifugation step.
What are the benefits of the Arthrex ACP system compared to other treatment systems?
The Arthrex ACP system is a natural treatment that leverages the body's own regeneration processes, with over 200 clinical studies supporting its effectiveness. It features an optimized composition rich in fibrinogen, minimal pain during injection due to the absence of anticoagulants, and a fast, safe, and user-friendly production system using a double syringe.
What are the potential side effects and risks of ACP treatment?
ACP uses autologous plasma derived from the patient’s own blood, which makes the likelihood of immune reactions negligible. There may be some temporary redness or mild swelling immediately following the procedure, which should subside quickly.5 As with any aesthetic procedure, treatment should be conducted by a trained health care professional following medical guidelines.
How is ACP different from other plasma treatments?
ACP is produced in a closed system without synthetic separating materials and does not require an anticoagulant, unlike some other plasma treatments. It uses physical separation by centrifugation and an innovative double-chamber syringe to ensure a higher concentration of platelets and reduced white blood cells and erythrocytes.
