Plasma skin regeneration is used to rejuvenate skin by improving facial lines and wrinkles (rhytides) and skin pigmentation associated with photo aging. It is best performed during the early signs of ageing such as: Age spots and skin discoloration (hyperpigmentation)
Not only does it help the body create new elastin and collagen but it can virtually do away with wrinkles, acne scars, lines, stretch marks, and other types of scars. Plus, a PRP facial can deliver pronounced effects with better skin texture and tone.
Researchers have found that most patients who get results have 3 or more treatments. That means, you’d have to go to your dermatologist’s office 3 or more times to have blood drawn, treated, and injected back into you. To give their patients more immediate results, some dermatologists inject a filler along with PRP
According to published reports, PRP tends to improve hair caliber and hair growth for about four to six weeks, requiring repeated treatments once a month for 3 months. On average, however, most patients will require their repeat PRP treatment after 6-12 months in order to maintain the hair growth effects.
PRP therapy typically consists of three treatments in a 4–6 week period, with maintenance treatments every 4–6 months
Avoid applying ice or heat to the injection site for the first 72 hours post-procedure. Don’t take a hot bath or go to a sauna for the first few days post-procedure. Avoid consumption of any alcoholic beverages for the first week post-procedure. Avoid showering for the first 24 hours following your procedure.
TREATMENT
The PRP procedure is straightforward and quick. It’s very similar to taking a sample of an individual’s blood. In this process, however, 30-60 ml of blood is drawn from the patient’s arm, collected into a tube and placed into a centrifuge. In order to remove the plasma and platelets from the blood, the blood sample is spun around until the rich plasma separates from the blood particles.
After numbing the area, the plasma is then injected into the patient’s hand; it could be wrinkles, or an arthritic area, or an injured tendon. Unlike a surgical operation, PRP makes it possible for a patient to resume daily activities quickly.
