Plaquelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a cutting-edge and natural method for rejuvenating the skin. It is available exclusively by Dr. Burkenstock’s Skin-Body-Health. Skin is composed of red blood cells with serum which is made up of platelets and white blood cells.
Platelet-Rich Plasma is an extract that comes from your serum which contains 3-5 times more platelets, growth factors as well as active proteins. Platelet growth factors boost skin functions by increasing collagen and elastin, while giving antioxidant and hydrating benefits. In turn, this process aids in healing tissue by promoting the turnover of cells.
Plaquelet-Rich Plasma can now be injectable into the skin similar fashion to dermal fillers. It is also placed on the skin in conjunction with micro-needling. The ideal person for PRP therapy if they suffer from wrinkles that are premature, have excessive levels of sun damage, or are looking for a uniform tone and more luminous appearance for your skin.
If Platelet-Rich Plasma is injected back to the dermis, it activates localized stem cells response. In the months and weeks following treatment, this hormone is arouses collagen-producing cells, referred to as the fibroblasts. The fibroblasts are able to replace tissues damaged by aging or injury caused, leading to healthy skin that appears refreshed and refreshed.
PRP is a promising procedure to repair and regenerate tissues damaged by injury or with less desirable.
Additionally, it assists in removing damaged cells from the extracellular matrix (ECM) of the skin. Additionally, it promotes the formation of collagen which helps maintain the structure, elasticity and functionality in the face.
Doctor. Burkenstock has extensively studied along with Ingrid B. Riedel, MD for the perfecting of her methods and improve your appearance by using plasma-rich platelets.
PRP can be used cosmetically to:
Some age-related concerns respond better to cosmetic PRP, while others respond better to hyaluronic acid, fillers, peels, or laser resurfacing techniques. The effects of all these treatments are enhanced by using them together. Women and men can benefit from cosmetic PRP.
Cosmetic Platelet-Rich Plasma is a simple and safe procedure. Because the PRP is extracted from your own blood, there is no risk of disease transmission, allergic reaction, or immune reaction. PRP is an effective and natural way of harnessing the healing power of your own blood to help reverse the signs of aging.
PRP can be repeated, and better results are seen with a total of 2-3 treatments given 3-4 months apart. Patients can expect to see better results as they receive more treatments. With time, the results of PRP get better and better.
It’s nice to layer PRP with traditional fillers. If a patient has volume loss with a lot of fine lines and textural changes, Dr. Burkenstock will use PRP to create a new foundation of collagen and use dermal fillers for the fine lines.
