Aging is a natural process and we should accept it gracefully. However, aging does not mean that you deprive yourself of having a healthy skin. Many times, we develop scar tissue and wrinkles that not only look awful but it also promotes bad-quality skin. This is precisely where PRP can be of great help as it can promote good skin health while improving your looks and self-confidence.

Known as the ‘Vampire-Facial’, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a semi-invasive skin treatment procedure used for slowing down the effects of aging on your facial skin. There’s a lot of buzz going around for this specific procedure as it is being considered a game-changer in the field of skin treatments. PRP is a popular non-invasive treatment procedure used in congruence with plastic surgeries and various other skin treatments.

Procedure –

The procedure involves using a client’s own blood to extract the healthy, platelet-rich plasma and then injecting it again in the scalp or facial skin to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. However, as many consider it to be, it is not a magical treatment that can de-age or even stop the effects of aging. The procedure aims to heal the facial skin with the help of White Blood Cells (WBCs). And also apart from improving your looks, the procedure is also quite helpful in healing scars, blemishes, and marks obtained through injuries and/or various other skin issues. The procedure focuses on aiding your skin muscles and tissues with enough support, so it can promote elastin and collagen production. The entire treatment can take up to 1 hour whereas the majority of treatments only last for 45 minutes.

How It’s Done?

  • Step – 1 A small amount of blood is drawn from your hand. The amount is usually 3-4 tablespoons which is not more than 30ml for most cases.
  • Step – 2 Blood is then taken to the lab and plasma which contains a high amount of platelets, is extracted through the centrifugal method.
  • Step – 3 After extracting the plasma, our expert practitioner will inject it through a syringe or microneedle on your scalp or facial skin. The practitioner can also choose to use dermal fillers such as hyaluronic acid and neuromodulators after the treatment for immediate results. These neuromodulators help facial muscles recover years of overuse and fatigue and are better than Botox in many cases.

There’s also a different method in which extracted plasma is spread across your face and it is injected with the help of microneedles whereas the Vampire method involves injecting the plasma into specific areas of your face like a filler. Both procedures have their unique use cases and choosing the right one entirely depends on your requirements and practitioner’s discretion.
