YOUR BODY'S OWN HEALING POWER

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is an advanced treatment that has historically been used by athletes to speed up their recovery process from sports related injuries. Recently, PRP has begun to be used for a wider range of treatments, including addressing joint issues, facilitating regeneration of the skin, and addressing issues such as dark circles and puffiness that occurs below the eyes, as well as sagging skin around the mouth, cheeks, and eyes. PRP is collected by drawing a small amount of blood into a sterile tube. Once this sample is collected, it is placed into a centrifuge, which then spins the sample around to isolate and concentrate the platelets, growth factors, and stem cells. This sample is then injected into the skin. When PRP is added to a wound, growth factors are released which results in an increase of tissue synthesis. At Lake Norman Oral & Facial Surgery, we offer a full range of oral and maxillofacial surgical procedures, specializing in facial reconstruction, facial surgery, corrective jaw surgery, obstructive sleep apnea, and wisdom tooth removal.

Words cannot express enough, how wonderful, caring and professional Dr. Haigney and his staff are! After being rushed to the Huntersville hospital with an orbital fracture, broken nose and other facial damage, Dr. Haigney rushed me into surgery (on his day off I must add) and corrected all my problems. I only wish all doctors cared as much about their patients and their recovery as Dr. Haigney and his staff did. Thank you so much for everything! Your attention and compassion has helped me make my recovery as comfortable as possible. 5 star service!
