Treatment using cell therapy has developed well in several years. Cell therapy can be used to treat degenerative diseases and can be an alternative treatment with minimal use of chemical compounds. This article aims to show the results of cell therapy in cases of actopic dermatitis in dogs at RSHP FKH IPB University. The dog named volley, four years old female dog with breed is bull dog comes with complaints of itching and rash all over the skin surface. Hair loss is also found on the back side area. The diagnosis is carried out by conducting a physical examination, examining skin scrapings, and blood tests.

Blood tests result there are no abnormality in the haematology parameter. Based on the tests carried out, the diagnosis established for volley is actopic dermatitis. The therapy given is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) cell therapy using the patient^s blood. A total of 15 mL of patient blood was centrifuged to obtain section of Platelet Rich Plasma then that section was injected intravenously using 0.9% NaCl infusion fluid. This cell therapy is carried out three times one week apart. The results obtained were an improvement in the skin condition after three treatments.
