The Critical
Why PRP Results Are Inconsistent
The issue lies not in the science itself, but in the substantial platelet loss that occurs during processing. Most PRP systems lose 20-60% of available platelets, leaving patients with subtherapeutic doses and unpredictable results.
COMPETITOR RECOVERY RATES:
RESEARCH SHOWS: OPTIMAL DOSING REQUIRES
- 4-10 billion platelets per treatment for superior clinical responses;
- ≥1 million platelets/μL (roughly 5× normal concentration);
- Marx's threshold: Below this, PRP may be underdosed;
- Key insight: Total platelet dose matters more than concentration alone.

Key Findings from Independent Studies:
- BSR Cambridge Study (2015): PCX exceeds even EmCyte's 81% recovery with ≥89% while requiring only 24 mL vs. 60 mL blood draw;
- Multi-System PMC Study (2017): Single-spin systems showed lower platelet concentrations and higher neutrophil contamination;
- Australian Comparative Study (2017): Substantial variations highlighted need for standardization that PCX addresses.
Clinical
4-10 Billion Platelets Per Treatment
Essential for superior clinical responses across all applications.
ORTHOPEDIC APPLICATIONS
Multiple RCTs demonstrate that high-dose PRP (≥10 billion platelets per injection) provides superior pain relief and functional improvement in knee osteoarthritis compared to hyaluronic acid and placebo treatments.
AESTHETIC MEDICINE
A 2020 meta-analysis of 13 RCTs showed PRP significantly increased hair density in androgenic alopecia, with effects correlated to growth factor concentration. High-concentration PRP demonstrates superior results in facial rejuvenation.
WOUND HEALING
A 2022 systematic review of 29 RCTs found that PRP increased chronic wound closure rates five-fold compared to standard care (OR = 5.32), with outcomes linked to platelet dose and growth factor content.
Beyond Concentration: Total Recovery Matters
A 6× concentration with only 40% recovery delivers fewer platelets than PCX's 5.5× concentration with 89% recovery. PCX delivers both efficient concentration AND near-total recovery.
