ABOUT PLATELET RICH PLASMA TREATMENTS

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy is a non-surgical skin repair method that uses a growth factor and the patient’s blood to rejuvenate skin. When used for the face, it is also known as a “Vampire Facial” and involves using hyaluronic acid fillers and extracted platelets from the patient’s own blood. A nominal amount of blood is taken from the patient and placed in an apparatus that divides the platelets from the blood. The fillers and platelets are injected into damaged areas of the skin. Once the platelets are injected “growth factors”, which are proteins that repair damaged tissue, stimulate the cells to build more collagen and smooth out the wrinkles in the skin. The skin will have more volume, elasticity and a youthful improved texture. The skin will also begin to tighten and become stronger.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, can inject more Life into the skin
Procedures for repairing skin affected by aging and sun exposure are becoming more of a demand. Because skin conditions like sagging, wrinkles, fine lines and scars are a recurring problem for a large percentage of the population, there are a variety of treatments available for correcting skin imperfections. At Skin & Body Refinery we offer many treatments for damaged skin. One, in particular, is called Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). It rejuvenates the skin so that damaged tissue can be improved by stimulating the skin to build more collagen. What makes this treatment especially unique is that we use the patient’s own blood to treat problem areas of the skin.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy is non-invasive and supports the concept that the aging process can be reversed with the body’s natural ability to heal itself. When growth factors are failing to perform at the optimal level to stimulate proper cell growth, using platelets from the patient’s blood to encourage more cell growth is a highly effective solution. PRP Therapy has been successfully used to treat sports related injuries, along with other medical uses to aid in healing, especially post-operative procedures. Because of its effectiveness, it was developed as a cosmetic treatment that is now highly requested by celebrities.

It’s important to understand that it’s a safe procedure and especially effective because the patient’s own blood is used for the treatment. It’s ideal for skin damage caused by photo-aging, acne, scarring from surgery and volume loss. Injections are typically done around the eyes and cheeks to firm sagging skin and fine lines. The neck, hands and upper arms are common problem areas that are often treated. It’s also a suggested treatment for women who have lost some skin laxity after being pregnant and it’s a fantastic treatment for stretch marks.

We try to address some general questions that patients may have about the treatment, the process, possible side effects and how long they can expect the treatment to last.
