DEFINITION
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) injection treatment is an aesthetic treatment using the regenerative potential of the patient’s own blood. The PRP injection treatment acts as a true anti-ageing treatment.
The red and white blood cells, plasma and platelets used in PRP treatment are the components of human blood.
TREATMENT
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) treatment involves re-injecting the skin’s own growth factors to improve the quality of the skin, reduce fine lines and improve the colour and texture of the eye area. The platelets act as a true regenerative agent and revitalise the dermis.
A blood sample is taken prior to the PRP injection treatment. The blood sample is then first centrifuged and then re-injected into the dermis in the desired areas. The PRP treatment offers a real anti-ageing treatment.
Doctor Philippe Kestemont, specialist in cosmetic surgery, aesthetic medicine of the face and neck in Nice will advise you on the injections, their effects and how they can be used.
INJECTION AREAS
PRP injections can be performed on the face, neck and décolletage. They can also be used to combat the signs of baldness. The facial features are reshaped and plumped up, the skin is visibly toned and the face is illuminated. PRP injections offer a real rejuvenating effect.
Doctor Philippe Kestemont, as a specialist in cosmetic surgery, aesthetic medicine of the face and neck, will be able to advise you on these practices in his office located at the Saint George aesthetic clinic in Nice.
REQUIRED SESSIONS
The risks of skin reactions such as rejection or allergy are non-existent. This is because the PRP injection treatment is autologous. This means that it comes from one’s own body, the substance re-injected into the dermis is then directly recognised and assimilated by the body.
A PRP injection session can treat the entire face and down to the neckline. The benefits of PRP injections can be appreciated from 6 months to 1 year.
