Platelet-rich Plasma
What is it?
Platelet-rich Plasma
The vampire facial, also known as the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) facial, includes drawing blood from your arm, separating the platelets, and then injecting them into your skin via microneedling. The nurse runs the needle pen over your face while squirting the platelets into the mini injection holes. Since platelets are rich in growth hormone and microneedling stimulates skin regeneration, the entire procedure is meant to enhance cell turnover. And it’s damn bloody work — that’s for sure. The results are meant to mimic a facelift, but with zero downtime.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a treatment that involves extracting a small sample of your blood, processing it to concentrate platelets, and then re-injecting it into specific areas. This plasma-rich platelet injection helps stimulate healing, collagen production, and tissue regeneration. It can be used for a variety of conditions, including PRP platelet-rich plasma hair treatments for hair loss and platelet-rich plasma therapy for the face.
At Kalon Aesthetics in Calgary, we specialize in Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatments designed to rejuvenate your skin, promote hair growth, and accelerate injury recovery. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a natural, non-surgical procedure that uses your body’s own plasma to trigger healing and regeneration in targeted areas.
How it works
When platelet rich plasma infusion is injected back into the skin layers, it initiates a local stem cell response. In the weeks and months following treatment, these stem cells help to form new collagen structure and blood vessels, repair and regenerate damaged skin, and help slow and reverse the signs of aging, creating healthy skin that looks refreshed and rejuvenated.
