A safe, effective solution to glowing, healthier looking skin
A safe, effective solution to glowing, healthier looking skin
Has your skin colour become more grayish lately? Does your face look droopy and tired looking, even after a good night’s sleep? Is your skin texture, becoming less smooth no matter how many different facial creams you are using?
Most people over 30 will answer “yes” to at least one of the above questions. This is because these “symptoms” are some of the most common signs of aging skin, a process we must all face at some point or another in our lives.
The Vampire Facial™ can reduce the signs of aging by saturating the patient’s face with regeneration cells that immediately begin to revitalize tissues.
The Vampire Facial™ procedure involves using Platelet Rich Plasma (Platelet Rich Plasma), a serum containing the patient’s own blood platelets, to stimulate new cell growth. The procedure improves skin complexion and texture.
The treatment is non-invasive, with no side effects or risk of allergic reaction*.
Human blood is composed of red blood cells (93%), white blood cells (6%), and platelets and plasma (1%). Platelet rich plasma (or Platelet Rich Plasma), concentrates on separating that 1%, creating a concentrated serum of platelets. Although they are known for their coagulating properties (to stop bleeding), platelets also release growth factors that recruit reparative cells and, hence, revitalize and heal tissues. In other words, platelets are cells that help soft tissue to heal and grow new cells. For this reason, Platelet Rich Plasma injections have a long history of success in treating sports injuries, arthritis, tendinitis, and other painful conditions.
In cosmetic medicine, Platelet Rich Plasma treatments are used to treat specific areas of the skin to promote collagen growth and regenerate tissue; in order to obtain naturally smoother and tighter skin.
The Platelet Rich Plasma Facial is highly effective for both men and women. Benefits include*:
Platelet Rich Plasma (Platelet Rich Plasma) stimulates cell growth in the applied area. Platelet Rich Plasma aids the healing process in the face, without the use of chemicals or foreign substances. Described as the ultimate biological facial, the Vampire Facial™, or Platelet Rich Plasma Facial, does not cause allergic reactions or infections, because the applied plasma comes from the patient’s own body.
Platelet Rich Plasma is a groundbreaking medical treatment that improves and restores healthy, radiant and youthful looking skin.
When Platelet Rich Plasma is inserted into the skin through microneedling, this causes small injuries that activate the platelets and allows them to do what they do best: repair the tissue in that area. Platelets do this by releasing healing proteins that are called growth factors. When platelet levels are extremely above their normal concentration (which is what happens during any Platelet Rich Plasma treatment), it boosts the skin’s ability to rejuvenate.
Essentially, the Platelet Rich Plasma Facial encourages the body to use its own natural healing process in the areas that need more help.
