PRP for Skin
FOREVER YOUNG
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) rejuvenation treatment, also known as Vampire Facial is a treatment to reverse the common ageing signs in the skin specifically the face, neck, hands. It stimulates collagen production with the infusion of your own platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) or ‘liquid gold’ via a fractional micro-needling pen device. It rejuvenates your skin in a natural way with minimal downtime leading to a supple, firmer and younger looking skin.
Benefits
- Improves tone texture and brightness of skin
- Sun damage, acne scars, dark circles and hyperpigmentation is also improved.
- Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
- Adds volume
- Minimizes scarring or stretch marks
Procedure
A blood sample is obtained from the patient. The blood is spun at a very rapid rate in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from the other components of the blood. The resulting natural, yellow serum contains 8 potent growth factors that are then deposited back into the dermal layer of the skin following the use of a micro-needling device.
