Let your body work for you! Rejuvenate facial skin with growth factors from your own blood
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a type of treatment that is based on the use of platelet-rich blood plasma for skin regeneration
Aging is an unavoidable part of life that each of us will face, sooner or later. All this enormous burden of years that we carry with us becomes visible over time, especially on our skin.
The first signs of aging such as wrinkles on the face, finer lines on the neck, arms or cleavage are certainly a signs that you would like to cover.
In such situations, you usually opt for various cosmetic products, without looking at the ingredients or possible side effects that, in the worst case, can further irritate your skin.
But what if youbecame the medicine for your own skin? It sounds strange, but that’s exactly what we achieve with PRP therapy. This type of treatment uses your own blood cells to regenerate skin cells, thus restoring the youthful appearance and glow you strive for so much.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a type of treatment that is based on the use of platelet-rich blood plasma for skin regeneration. This minimally invasive procedure heralded a new generation of treatments in which the therapy is maximally tailored to the patient.
This type of therapy stands out from the rest for several reasons:
PRP therapy uses your own blood, which means there is no risk of treatment rejection or allergic reactions.
The platelets contained in the mixture promote faster cell regeneration, which accelerates the rejuvenation process and provides faster recovery.
In addition to being recommended for cosmetic treatments, PRP therapy has been proven in the treatment of other conditions such as sports injuries, treatment of osteoarthritis, tendons and ligaments.
Due to its natural action that will not irritate the skin, this type of therapy can serve as a supplement to already performed cosmetic treatments such as Botox, mesotherapy or Skinbooster.
PRP therapy, also known as “vampire treatment” , is an ideal procedure for everyone who wants to slow down the aging process and give their skin a youthful appearance with a smooth and soft texture.
PRP treatment is recommended for anyone who is trying to:
The blood cells that we extract for PRP treatment are predominantly composed of platelets. Their main role in the body is to create scabs and stop bleeding during external injuries.
However, for the purpose of treatment, platelets due to the formation of various growth factors can serve as an incentive for the formation of new tissue and revitalization of the skin. That is why procedures such as tissue regeneration, reduction of fine lines and renewal of skin exposed to the sun are possible.
In order for the results of the treatment to be optimal, it is necessary to meet several conditions. That is why we conduct consultations before each procedure to introduce you to the procedure, preparation for therapy and recovery.
In the case of preparation for PRP therapy, it is necessary to follow the following instructions:
Before PRP treatment, it is not recommended to use drugs that prevent blood clotting (anticoagulants) such as Andol or Aspirin.
Medications of this type, as well as certain dietary supplements, can increase the risk of bleeding and prolong recovery after treatment.
A week before the treatment, it is necessary to consume optimal levels of fluids so that your skin remains hydrated and ready for therapy.
Alcohol and cigarettes can dry out the skin, making it more sensitive and reducing the effect of the treatment.
Excessive sun exposure can irritate the skin and delay recovery after treatment. It is recommended that you do not expose yourself to the sun for at least a week before the treatment.
By following these instructions, you reduce the risk of possible side effects and enable the treatment to become as effective as possible.
The treatment is not performed if you are currently suffering from a cold or flu, if you are on antibiotic therapy. In this case, wait until complete recovery, or a week or two after taking antibiotics.
In case of the following phenomena, we will also postpone the treatment:
These phenomena can disrupt blood counts and your hormonal state, which can leave long-term traces on the skin and reduce the effectiveness of therapy.
Before starting the treatment, we apply an anesthetic cream that will relieve pain and make the procedure as comfortable as possible. When the anesthesia starts to work, we start the therapy.
In order to obtain an adequate mixture for therapy, we draw a minimum amount of blood , which is placed in a specialized centrifuge to separate blood cells. Platelet-rich blood plasma is separated separately and prepared for injection.
The purified plasma is injected into the desired areas, which leads to skin regeneration and facial tightening.
The first results can be visible even after the first treatment, but for optimal results, about 3 treatments are usually carried out at intervals of 4 to 6 weeks.
If proper measures are taken before the procedure, the recovery period is minimal. Avoid smoking and alcohol , which can further irritate the skin.
Intense physical activity should be avoided for two days after the procedure, although lower-intensity activities such as walking are allowed.
Side effects include mild redness, bruising, swelling and sensitivity to touch. However, in most cases, such side effects pass on the second day. We recommend using cold compresses and lighter face creams that will speed up the recovery process.
In the event that some of these changes have persisted for a longer period, we recommend that you contact us to determine the reason for this reaction to treatment.
