PRP Facelift

The PRP Facelift & the PRP Facial procedures differ in method and in benefits. 

All providers of both the PRP Facelift® & the PRP Facial procedures must be licensed by the Cellular Medicine Association (these are specific methods and those providers deviating from those methods could cause serious harm).

Do You Show These 3 Signs of Aging?

1. Skin color becomes more gray because of less blood flow.
2. Facial Shape becomes collapsed and droopy as muscle and collagen decrease.
3. Skin texture becomes less smooth. As a result, the person looks “worn”, or “tired” or “droopy.” The lively, rosy hue (seen plainly in playing children of every skin color and in young adults) fades to a dull gray.

Why PRP?

With many ways to rejuvenate the face, why look for a better way?

 Cosmetic surgery can remove excess skin and make the person appear younger. But, a surgical facelift can be more than what’s needed for some people (especially when loss of shape without extra skin is the main problem). 

 Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers lift the skin away from the bone to restore youthful volume and shape. But HA fillers can cause problems near the eye. Also, the injector of HA fillers can chase a wrinkle and create a shape that looks foreign to the person’s face or even foreign to this planet.

 The HA fillers do little to improve skin tone and texture.

 Unlike most procedures, the PRP Facelift offers a way of both restoring shape, and improving tone and texture, as well as literally rejuvenating new and younger tissue!

 Here’s how it’s done…

 4 Steps of the PRP Facelift Procedure

First, the injector (1) uses HA fillers to create a beautiful shape. (2) Then, the physician isolates growth factors from the patient’s blood.  (3) When these growth factors enter the face (injected by the physician), then muti-potent stem cells become activated to grow new tissue.  This new tissue includes new collagen, new fatty tissue (for smoothness), and new blood vessels (for a healthy glow).

1) Creating a Beautiful & Natural Shape

In the first part of the PRP FaceLift procedure, the physician uses an Hyaluronic Acid (HA) filler (like Restylane or Juvederm) in a very specific way to sculpt a younger appearing face–while still keeping the shape natural.

 Providers of the PRP Facelift procedure take into account the mathematics of beauty as defined by much research (starting with the notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci) to avoid at all costs creating an unnatural shape.  These ideas about the HA fillers are not commonly known even among the best of cosmetic surgeons and constitute part of the intellectual property protected by the trademarked name (PRP Facelift).

 After creating a younger, natural shape, then the physician harvests from the woman’s own blood growth factors that her body would normally use to heal damaged tissue.

 2) Isolating  & Activating the Magic from Your Blood

First,  the physician draws about  2 teaspoons of blood.

 Then, using a centrifuge, the physician isolates platelets from that blood (platelet-rich plasma or PRP)–all within about 10 minutes in the office!

 Then she “activates” those platelets to cause the release from the platelets of at least 8 growth factors that would normally be used to heal injured tissue. 

 These growth factors work like magic to cause increased collagen & new blood flow. To rejuvenate new skin, these growth factors must be put back into your face. 

 

3) Injecting the Magic into Your Face

 Using numbing cream and a very small needle (for almost no pain), the physician injects the woman’s own growth factors back into her face in a particular way. These growth factors then activate multipotent stem cells already in the skin (tricking them into “thinking” there’s been an injury and new younger tissue should generated).

 

4) Recovery & Maintenance with the Healing & Regeneration properties of Altar™an official PRP Skin Therapy™

The patented ingredient in Altar™, SBD-4, works synergistically to enhance the effects of the previous steps and to help supply blood flow to fragile new growth of healthy pleuripotent stem cells.

 Only certified providers of the PRP Procedures (Facelift & Facial) offer this very important 4th step. Altar™, for enhanced recovery and improved maintenance post-PRP Facelift procedure. The pluripotent stem cells then develop into new collagen, new blood vessels, and new fatty tissue trying to “repair” the skin that was never injured!

The effects of the procedure improve for 2 to 3 months and last for at least 1 to 2 years!

The result…younger-appearing skin!

 

Use Your Blood to Rejuvenate Your Face…

The PRP Facelift procedure is not for everyone. 

Many would do better with surgery, or laser therapy, or Botox®, or simply PRP or an HA filler used alone. All of the providers on this web site display passion about offering you the right procedure for your face.
