PRP Plasma Facelift

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is rapidly becoming one of the most useful treatments for the skin and body. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) contains growth factors which stimulate the body to repair and restore tissues using the body’s own natural processes. The use of blood plasma and platelets to promote healing has been a commonly used practice in orthopedics and dentistry for many decades. More recently, its popularity has exploded in dermatology and aesthetics due to its amazing rejuvenative properties.

In its liquid form, PRP may be applied topically or injected in the scalp or skin. However, an innovative treatment at Dermestetics now allows these blood products to be gently heated, taking on a consistency comparable to dermal filler–introducing the Plasma Facelift! While many patients love traditional dermal fillers, others may seek a more natural alternative. The skin experts at Dermestetics are excited to offer this highly specialized all natural treatment for patients interested in a more organic option. By using the powerful healing factors held within the patient’s own blood, we can avoid any use of artificial substances; especially beneficial for those who may have a history of allergic reaction where traditional dermal fillers are contraindicated.

With this technique, a small amount of blood is drawn from the patient. The blood is then centrifuged and separated, yielding a high concentration of platelets. The remaining blood product is gently heated, resulting in a thicker gel-like substance. This gel-like substance mimicking dermal filler is injected throughout the face or body to improve wrinkles, hollowness, and folds; add volume and contour, create desired definition; and even improve stubborn acne scars.

What makes the Plasma Facelift so special is we bring back the vitality of your skin with the power of your own blood. A major benefit of the Plasma Facelift, is that PRP in this utility helps your skin heal and rejuvenate faster, without the risk of an allergic reaction or skin sensitivity. It provides results for a longer period of time, regenerating your body’s own tissues. It will also improve hydration. Finally, unlike traditional dermal fillers that simply degrade over time, the platelet-rich plasma stimulates your body’s own production of localized blood vessels, hyaluronic acid, and helps create new skin cells with a healthier collagen structure. It can take a little longer to see your enhanced look, as producing new collagen and cells takes time, so while you will see significant improvement immediately, fully visible results may take several weeks.

The Plasma Facelift offers a truly organic alternative or supplement to traditional dermal fillers, making it one of our favorite treatments yet!

Side effects: The Plasma Facelift is compatible with many cosmetic treatments. There is no negative interaction with other substances. Plasma rich in growth factors can be used alongside regular dermal fillers or BOTOX for a more comprehensive treatment. Swelling and redness can occur for 12-24 hours after the treatment, and small bruises may appear in the treatment area.
