As we age, our facial skin starts sagging. Simply said, with ageing, excess skin starts appearing on our forehead (giving us a frowning look), between the eyebrows as well as around the eyes (wrinkles). All these facial parts fall under our upper face area.
Many techniques have been used worldwide to treat these anti-ageing facial symptoms. One of them is the PRP technique.
ABOUT THE TREATMENT
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) has been used in facial rejuvenation around the world since 2006. Popularly known as the ‘Vampire Facial’ is an advanced anti-aging and skin rejuvenation technique that helps repair injured and damaged tissues in the body.
WHY PRP?
It is the growth factors in PRP that help the body to heal. It triggers collagen production. “Collagen is the ‘latticework of the face,’ so a PRP facial helps tighten, smooth and improve skin tone.”
SO HOW IT WORKS?
It uses the plasma from your blood to help stimulate skin cell regeneration in the area it’s applied. The plasma-rich protein (PRP) facial, combines plasma and platelets from your blood with other rejuvenation techniques.
Its procedure is not a surgical facelift. This is a natural procedure that helps restore or enhance areas.
1. First the area of the treatment is cleaned and an anesthetic cream is applied.
2. Then your blood is drawn, fed into a sealed test tube, centrifuged in-house and the separated plasma is mixed with actives.
This is then injected into the layers of your skin on your face.
WHAT ABOUT THE RESULTS?
Once the treatment is done, you will see rejuvenated skin that appears younger and feels softer. You may experience some bruising and redness after the procedure.
