Imagine if there was a magical substance that kept your skin resilient, adaptive, and radiant.
It actually exists, and your body produces it!
Collagen comprises 30% of the protein in your body and is the major component in your bones, muscles, ligaments, and tendons — in addition to your skin.
The unfortunate part? Your body makes plenty of collagen when you’re young, but things slow down as you age — and the collagen you do have degenerates faster. Women experience that after menopause, but it affects everyone after age 60.
The good news is that at the Center for Dermatology in Lawrenceville, Georgia, Dr. Abdul Hafeez and our caring team offer a game-changing aesthetic treatment that restores radiance and elasticity to your skin thanks to a regenerative medicine treatment known as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy.
Here’s why our patients have embraced this treatment.
The unwelcome skin changes we notice when collagen production slows include:
PRP therapy harnesses the power of your body’s healing and renewal capabilities to revitalize and strengthen your skin and refresh your look. In addition to addressing signs of aging, PRP therapy can also ease acne scarring.
During treatment, we take a small blood sample and reconstitute it in a centrifuge. This device separates your platelets, which are essential to healing and helping your blood clot. That allows us to reinject platelet-rich plasma into the dermal layer of your facial skin.
The treatment stimulates cell production and helps repair and regenerate tissue.
If you’re looking to smooth, firm, and zhuzh up your skin beautifully, here are five reasons to consider PRP therapy:
PRP therapy helps mend existing damaged collagen and stimulates the production of new collagen to firm your skin, allowing it to hold on to moisture and banish those obvious signs of aging.
PRP therapy is a classic multitasker treatment. It triggers inflammation initially, unlocking critical growth factors. Then the growth factors inundate the areas needing repair, creating new capillaries and blood vessels.
During the final remodeling phase, both the improved and newly created collagen smooth wrinkles, erase fine lines, and minimize scars.
Unlike going under the knife to look younger and refreshed, a PRP therapy treatment session is comfortable and even spa-like.
When you receive PRP therapy, we can tell you from the get-go what to expect. Within just three weeks, you see brightened skin tone, improved, smoother texture, and increased firmness. These positive changes endure for up to three months after a single treatment.
When you come to us for PRP therapy for facial rejuvenation, you can return to your routine right after your treatment. That’s because the treatment uses your blood and combats infection.
Though you might notice some sensitivity at your treatment site or slight bruising or swelling soon after your treatment session, these side effects resolve quickly.
PRP therapy is the aesthetic choice for anyone wanting to look their best naturally without committing to invasive treatments. Don’t wait another minute to get your glow on!
