Are you looking for youthful, rejuvenated, glowing skin. PRP “The Vampire Facial” is the procedure for you. PRP, platelet – rich plasma is removed from your own red blood cells and applied or injected into the skin. PRP has a high concentration of growth factors and is beneficial in achieving healthy skin. PRP can tighten skin, diminish fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin texture and skin tone. PRP increases the production of collagen allowing skin to appear more plump and youthful while reversing the signs of aging.
Over the years as we age we lose collagen, therefore loosing volume in our face as well as decreasing elasticity. As a result, we develop fine lines and wrinkles as well as sagging, loose skin.
PRP is a non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedure using the powerful growth factors in the plasma of your blood. The procedure begins by drawing the patients blood. The collected blood is then placed into a centrifuge which spins the blood to separate PRP from the rest of the blood’s components. PRP is then applied on the face during a microneedling procedure. During microneedling the skin is punctured with a needling device creating tiny microscopic injuries to the skin allowing the plasma to penetrate deeper in the dermal layer. The combination of prp and microneedling stimulates the skin to rejuvenate itself and create more collagen.
The PRP facial is one the most popular treatments performed on celebrities to maintain a beautiful appearance. It is the newest non-surgical procedure performed in medical practices around the world for rejuvenation and repair all over the body. The PRP facial is one of the most effective treatments offered at venus Spa for corrective skin care, maintenance, and anti-aging.
