PRP Treatment
PRP treatment, one of the most popular facial and neck rejuvenation procedures worldwide, is also known as the “vampire facial”, a treatment using your own blood, or platelet-rich plasma therapy.
PRP is considered one of the most effective methods of rejuvenation, and in addition to its effectiveness, it is also among the most natural procedures. In addition to being highly effective, it is also one of the most natural procedures. Since your own platelets are used, side effects such as allergies and irritations are minimal.
The main purpose of PRP treatment is to regenerate the skin and improve its quality.
If you want to enhance your skin’s tone and texture, refresh it, and achieve a more youthful appearance, this treatment is ideal for you.
Additionally, PRP can be used to complement laser treatments, especially for dehydrated and dry skin, uneven texture, or photo-damaged skin. The PRP procedure is very simple.
Before the treatment, a skin assessment is performed. Based on the evaluation, a small amount of the patient’s blood is drawn. Using a special centrifuge device, the platelets are separated, providing the active material for the procedure.
Platelet-rich plasma is injected into the skin using fine needles, where growth factors are released that stimulate stem cells.
These growth factors and stem cells help create new collagen and blood vessels, regenerate damaged skin, and reduce signs of aging.
The entire treatment takes up to 60 minutes, and afterward, you can return to your usual daily activities. Some mild swelling or bruising may occur.
After the treatment, intensive hydration and sun protection are highly recommended.
