As we age, our skin begins to show signs of wear and tear, such as wrinkles, sagging skin, and fine lines. Fortunately, there are several options available to help us look and feel our best. Two popular treatments for facial rejuvenation and wrinkle smoothing are Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and BioFiller. These treatments are both done without the use of foreign substance. If you are are seeking a more natural approach to anti-ageing procedures, PRP and Biofillers are the ultimate biological skin rejuvenation treatment.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Treatment
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a popular cosmetic treatment that uses a patient’s own blood to rejuvenate their skin. PRP contains growth factors that can stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins that are essential for youthful-looking skin.
To prepare for the treatment, the practitioner will draw a small amount of blood from the patient’s arm. The blood is then placed in a centrifuge, where it is separated into its component parts. The PRP is then extracted and injected into the patient’s skin using a microneedling technique.
The microneedling technique involves using a device that creates tiny punctures in the skin, which allows the PRP to penetrate deeply into the tissue. The procedure is relatively painless and typically takes around 30 minutes.
The benefits of PRP treatment include:
Reduced Wrinkles and Fine Lines
PRP treatment can help reduce wrinkles and fine lines by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. The growth factors in the PRP help to repair damaged skin cells and promote new cell growth, resulting in smoother, firmer skin.
Improved Skin Texture and Tone
PRP treatment can also improve the texture and tone of the skin. The growth factors in the PRP help to increase blood flow and stimulate the production of new skin cells, resulting in a brighter, more youthful complexion.
Minimal Downtime
PRP treatment requires minimal downtime, with most patients able to return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure. There may be some redness and swelling immediately after the treatment, but this typically subsides within a few hours.
Long-Lasting Results
The results of PRP treatment can last for several months to a year, depending on the patient’s skin type and the severity of their wrinkles and fine lines. Regular maintenance treatments can help to maintain the results.
BioFiller Treatment
Plasma BioFiller is a natural filler that uses the patient’s own blood plasma to rejuvenate the skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Plasma BioFiller contains growth factors that can stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins for youthful-looking skin. Compared to dermal filler, it uses your own plasma rather than hydrochloric acid. This means you do not have to put foreign substances in your body to achieve youthful skin. It is more natural. It moves with your muscles and doesn’t freeze them. It is instant.
To prepare for the treatment, the practitioner will draw a small amount of blood from the patient’s arm, which is then placed in a centrifuge to separate the plasma from other blood components. The plasma is then extracted and injected into the patient’s skin using a fine needle.
The benefits of Plasma BioFiller treatment include:
Natural-Looking Results
Plasma BioFiller provides a natural-looking result, as it uses the patient’s own plasma to rejuvenate their skin. The treatment is biocompatible and does not require allergy testing, making it a safe and effective option for many patients.
Reduced Wrinkles and Fine Lines
Plasma BioFiller treatment can help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. The growth factors in the plasma help to repair damaged skin cells and promote new cell growth, resulting in smoother, firmer skin.
Minimal Downtime
Plasma BioFiller treatment requires minimal downtime, with most patients able to return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure. There may be some redness and swelling immediately after the treatment, but this typically subsides within a few hours.
Long-Lasting Results
The results of Plasma BioFiller treatment can last for several months to a year, depending on the patient’s skin type and the severity of their wrinkles and fine lines. Regular maintenance treatments can help to maintain the results.
PRP vs Plasma Biofiller
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Plasma BioFiller are two different treatments that use the patient’s own blood plasma for skin rejuvenation, but they work in slightly different ways.
PRP treatment involves extracting a small amount of the patient’s blood, which is then processed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other blood components. The platelet-rich plasma is then re-injected into the patient’s skin, where it releases growth factors that stimulate cell growth, tissue repair, and collagen production. PRP treatment is often used for hair restoration, as well as for facial rejuvenation and the treatment of scars, stretch marks, and sun damage.
Plasma BioFiller, on the other hand, uses a similar process of extracting the patient’s blood and separating the plasma, but it is then injected into the skin as a natural filler. The plasma contains a concentration of growth factors and proteins that help to stimulate collagen production, reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, and promote skin rejuvenation. Plasma BioFiller treatment is typically used for facial rejuvenation, wrinkle smoothing, and to restore volume to the skin.
While both treatments use the patient’s own blood plasma to stimulate skin rejuvenation, they have different applications and work in slightly different ways. PRP treatment is typically used for tissue repair and collagen stimulation, while Plasma BioFiller is used as a natural filler to enhance volume and smooth wrinkles. Consultation with a qualified medical practitioner is recommended to determine the best treatment plan for individual needs and goals.
