| Platelet-rich plasma, or PRP, is an exciting new
development in skin treatments to promote healing
and aesthetic appeal. Considered cutting edge, this technique is increasingly
being used to treat orthopaedic injuries that may otherwise require
surgery.
The technique is also popularly known as a vampire facial, due to
its ability to make a person look younger. This kind of advanced therapy
involves a trained therapist drawing blood from a client and placing
it in a centrifuge to separate the platelets from the rest of the
blood. The fluid is then injected with a specially prepared gel, to
induce a higher concentrate of platelets, and injected back into the
skin to smooth out the affected area.
PRP, which is widely used in Europe, uses the body’s natural ability
to heal itself. The process naturally stimulates stem cells and encourages
repair and re-growth, facilitating a natural healing reaction.
The high concentration of growth factors accelerates the rapid repair
of the skin over a period of around two months. This natural and potent
filling technique is revolutionising skin treatment as we know it
and is paving the way for future stem cell stimulating rejuvenation.
The vampire facial is particularly good for the under-eye area, though
it works wonders for a variety of conditions. To find out more about
this revolutionary and popular PRP skin boosting treatment, as well
