When used combined with botulinum toxin, an impressive change in many of these characteristics brought on by aging can often be made with very little invested time, risk and recovery.

Most of the more commonly known ‘Injectable’ fillers fall into the temporary to semi-permanent categories. Materials such as human fat, collagen, calcium hydroxyapatite, hyaluronic acid and polylactic acid all have a role in the temporary filler category. However, among them the hyaluronic acid fillers are the most popular. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance in your body and actually is found in nearly every living thing.

The material presents itself and is delivered to the desired area in the form of a gel by injection.

By the nature of its organic chemical structure it will not only add support to the tissues but is thought to promote collagen formation as well as bring moisture to the surface of the skin. Depending on the product and the area being treated, hyaluronic acid-based fillers can provide a lasting effect often for up to 12 months.

Platelet-Rich
Plasma (PRP)

Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) in Elephant&Castle/Borough

 

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is part of what is known as Regenerative Therapies, which are those that work with biological elements extracted from the body, such as stem cells or plasma. It is a method that uses the patient’s own blood and consists of obtaining growth factors released by platelets, which when applied stimulates the production of growth factors that are involved in tissue regeneration and repair.

A natural and physiological treatment that uses our body’s own proteins, selected and concentrated, to repair the damage caused by the passage of time or sun damage. As it is a product obtained from the patient, we have no risk of allergies or intolerances to it.

Platelet-rich plasma treatment involves the intradermal application of growth factors contained in platelets. These platelets obtained from the centrifugation of a blood sample from the patient himself.

Platelets release the growth factors that carry different substances that affect tissue repair by generating certain proteins, circulating in the blood between 7 and 10 days. They are primarily responsible for stimulating cell regeneration, increasing the formation of new blood vessels and producing new tissue. That is, they activate the organism in the area where they released, helping to rebuild damaged tissue, a repairing effect that used to rejuvenate the skin.

One of the growth factors, called “epidermal growth factor”, was the first to be isolated: it stimulates angiogenesis and increases the thickness of the skin, returning its elasticity and firmness; in addition, it increases the vascularization of the area where it is applied, favouring the appearance of new skin, reducing the effects on it of cellular oxidation and eliminating wrinkles.

So today, the magnificent results obtained with its application to accelerate the healing of burns, treat keloids, acne and stretch marks, improve the results of treatments of all types (including surgical), favour the consolidation of skin grafts, as well as the post-peeling application or as a basic treatment incorporated into cosmetics, they continue to surprise experts.

Due to its properties, PRP mainly indicated as a regenerator of facial photo aging, for flaccidity, loss of dermal quality, cellulite and alopecia.

When used by microneedles, in areas that suffer more sagging, stimulates the production of collagen, elastin and epidermal tissue, which translates into a young, smooth and better-quality skin.

Usually used as a preventive and regenerative treatment, its use recommended when signs of skin aging begin to appear. In addition, for best results, it is even possible to make combinations with other methods such as mesotherapy, photo-rejuvenation, peelings, and radiofrequency among others.

The Treatment Consists of 6 Phases:

  1. Disinfection of the area to be treated with an antiseptic product to eliminate possible bacteria and microorganisms before proceeding with the treatment.
  2. Photographs before starting treatment to capture the initial situation of the patient.
  3. Application of local anaesthetic cream leaving it to act for 30-40 minutes.
  4. Extraction of the blood Sample, which will subsequently be put in a centrifuge to separate the components of the blood and simply obtain what we need to perform the PRP treatment.
  5. Infiltration of plasma manually with small intradermal injections or with a mesotherapy gun that is infiltrating the substance at an established rhythm and at the same depth.
  6. Cleaning of the treated area and the patient.
