What is it
Platelet-rich plasma PRP, also known as the "vampire facelift", is a natural, safe treatment, dedicated to people, who cannot use other preparations, e.g. due to allergies. PRP is an autologous preparation, i.e. it is obtained from the patient's own blood.

Then, the collected blood is centrifuged in a special treatment, thanks to which a platelet concentrate rich in medium height is obtained. PRP is obtained through blood centrifugation process in an outpatient setting, starting with waiting for meeting the requirements for sterility and accuracy of the device, which means quality and obtaining status. The concentrate obtained in this way is administered in the form of mesotherapy, with a syringe and a thin needle in the area of the skin, requiring regeneration. A series of several such treatments should be performed at intervals of about 3 weeks. The procedure may only be performed by a doctor. Before the procedure, local anesthesia with cream can be used.
