We use the platelets of your own blood to promote tissue remodelling and healing in any type of skin. Plasma Therapy or Platelet Rich Plasma is sometimes affectionately referred to as ‘the Vampire facelift’. It is a fully natural treatment using the patient’s own blood products to address aging concerns.
Blood is drawn from the patient and the sample is spun in a device called a centrifuge which separates the white blood cells, the red blood cells, the plasma and the platelets. The platelet rich plasma is then activated and injected back into the site that needs rejuvenation, the Plasma contains growth factors that are key to cell reproduction. Plasma is a brilliant treatment for ageing of the skin and restoring hair loss. We are delighted to offer it for patients of ours that are keen to use a natural and very safe treatment option.
