A peculiarity of the plasmolifting, which it is a little later, is that its effect is based on the activation and restoration of the patient's own resources. After the procedure, the interplay of the regeneration, metabolic and immune systems takes place without the penetration of foreign substances and antibodies into the body. And this eliminates the risk of allergic reactions and rejection of the introduced particles.
The essence of the rejuvenation technique
The rejuvenation technique with blood plasma was developed by academics in plastic medicine and was officially patented in 2003. Plasmolifting, as a method of PRP therapy, has only recently become widespread in cosmetics. Initially, the technique was used to restore bone tissue, and its positive effect on the epidermis was discovered more by chance and described as a side effect by the developers of the method. Plasma lifting is currently the only rejuvenation technique that has no complications or side effects.
The essence of the method lies in the introduction of plasma, obtained from the patient's blood, into the problem area of the skin. Plasmolifting the face begins with the procurement of materials to perform procedures. Immediately before the manipulation, blood is drawn from a vein. The blood undergoes special processing that separates and removes red blood cells from the plasma. The material is then enriched with collagen and elastin. All of these manipulations take no more than 15 minutes.
The cosmetic plasma gel obtained in this way acts as a building material after being injected under the skin. The record number of platelets, collagen and fibrin it contains helps to replace outdated fragments of the epidermis and stimulates the skin to form new cell chains, to produce fibroblasts and its own hyaluronic acid, which are responsible for rejuvenating and restoring the epidermis. Plasma enriched with platelets is used as a restorative material not only in cosmetics, but also in sports medicine and traumatology, and its effectiveness has been proven over time.
Indications for the procedure
The spectrum of action of plasma injections is very broad. This method of skin rejuvenation and restoration is used for problems such as:
- Change in the contours of the face, loss of elasticity and volume of the cheeks;
- the appearance of deep age wrinkles or as a result of facial features;
- increased pigmentation of the epidermis;
- decreased skin elasticity, including the eyelids, chin, neck, and cleavage;
- the appearance of scars as a result of improper acne treatment or after surgery.
To restore the skin on the body, after a change in weight or as a result of hormonal changes in the body, laser plasma lifting is most often used, but the injection method of the procedure is not excluded. This technique is widely used to improve the condition of the hair, and in dentistry - when implanting implants and treating the gums.
Prepare for the procedure and recovery period
No special preparation is required for skin rejuvenation injection. Procedures such as plasma lifting or biorevitalization do not involve anesthesia or hospitalization of the patient. The skin surface at the injection sites is subjected to application anesthesia, which excludes the occurrence of a painful reaction.
The plasmolifting, both before and after, does not cause any discomfort and does not affect the patient's usual rhythm of life. A slight swelling of the skin surface, which occurs in very rare cases at the injection sites, disappears after 2-3 hours.
In order to achieve the desired anti-aging effect, at least 4 procedures are required, the interval between which should be at least 7 days. The end result is influenced less by the skill of the beautician than by the condition of the client's epidermis at the time of treatment, their age and general health. When rejuvenating with the help of plasma lifting, it is recommended to exclude states of stress, alcohol consumption, smoking, to minimize the negative impact of the environment on the skin and not to use decorative cosmetics that contain aggressive substances.
The positive effect is noticeable after the first injection period. But in order to consolidate it and ensure a long period of validity, it is necessary to complete the entire course recommended by a specialist and strictly follow all his advice. A positive dynamic is observed within two years after the plasmolifting, but only if the patient does not expose the skin to negative influences, for example, does not abuse the solarium, carry out supportive interventions and lead a healthy lifestyle.
