For many years, external products, like chemicals and serums have been used on the skin in an attempt to make it look healthier and suppler. The basic idea behind PRP was either to protect the skin or to heal or repair damaged skin cells.
In recent times, the body’s natural healing process has been used to make the skin look and feel better. This process has to do a lot with platelets and proteins. The name given to this process is Platelet Rich Plasma or PRP Therapy or Vampire Facial NYC.
WHY PRP?
On a daily basis, our skin comes in contact with millions of toxins. This could be in the form of sun damage, pollution or just dust and dirt. For those of us working in environments that are rich in certain chemicals, this problem is even more adverse.
In such cases, our skin needs some extra work to be done on it, in order to keep it healthy. With a little extra help in the form of this PRP facial, you can give your skin the push that it needs to take care of itself. The most important advantage of this method is that it is 100% natural and no chemicals are used in the entire process.
WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE?
Anyone and everyone can get Platelet Rich Plasma treatment done. The basic requirements are your blood sample and expert professionals like that from Karmina Beauty Clinic who knows what they’re doing.
In certain cases, however, invasive treatments might not be the way to go. For example, if you have some skin infection or other medical conditions. This can only be ascertained after an expert takes a closer look at you.
WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE?
The basic procedure goes like this:
· A blood sample is drawn (mostly from the arm). This blood contains various elements like platelets, RBCs, and WBCs. Our motive is to separate the Platelets from the rest of the components.
· The second step is to centrifuge the blood. This means that the blood is rotated at very high speeds. This leads to the mechanical separation of the Platelet-rich plasma from the rest of the blood components.
· Next, this plasma is then injected into the skin where you need repair and rejuvenation. This is done by using very small-sized syringes, which don’t go very deep into the skin. This injected plasma is rich in proteins, which will initiate the repair process.
After getting to know about the procedure, most people have doubts regarding whether or not the procedure will be painful. The answer is NO! The whole treatment is done under local anesthesia. There is no question of any pain.
PRE AND POST-CARE?
There are no major requirements or post-care instructions in this procedure.
Usually, the recipient is recommended to take protein-rich meals to promote repair and growth.
You should avoid getting in contact with direct sunlight for a few days after the procedure.
You will mostly be advised not to use any harsh chemicals on your skin. Once the effect of the PRP injections treatment is complete, you can get back to your daily skincare routine
