Everyday more and more patients desire a healthy, fresh and glowing skin that does not present imperfections and they demand the process to be done with completely natural treatments that fit the profile of their social lives.
What is the total plasma lift treatment?
The total plasma lift or otherwise vampire lift is a new revolutionary treatment of skin regeneration and tightening.
It is the combination of fraxel laser and mesotherapy with autologous stem cells (prp-with the patient's blood).
This combination has remarkable and rapid results in comparison to any other treatment, and results to deep skin rejuvenation without irritations, side effects and with a minimum recovery time.
What exactly does the fraxel laser?
The original fraxel laser is the top choice in reconstruction and regeneration of the skin, both on the face and body.
The laser produces thousands of tiny but deep columns of thermal restoration, micro thermal zones through which epidermis cells are eliminated from the skin.
It is the only laser which can reach the deepest layers of the skin in order to activate the collagen without damaging the superficial layers of the skin.
It targets 5 to 50% of the surface of the skin, leaving the remaining 50 to 95% still intact and through the fibroblasts leads to rapid healing and skin repair.
The extreme precision of the application makes the treatment safer not only on the face, but also on sensitive areas like the neck, chest and hands.
What is the action of the autologous PRP mesotherapy?
This is a mesotherapy during which we do not use substances such as hyaluronic acid and vitamins but we inject autologous (i.e., from the patient) plasma rich in platelets.
The patient's platelets have the capacity to gradually release growth factors at the appropriate points where we perform the injection.
Through the PRP treatment the growth factors are multiplied, activating more stem cells. Growth factors are responsible for the effective and rapid tissue regeneration.
The goal is not the direct filling of wrinkles, but the stimulation of fibroblasts which will then produce new collagen and all the essential factors of the cellular matrix (elastin, glycoproteins, etc.) and hyaluronic acid, which are responsible for the rapid regeneration and rehydration of the skin.
What is the process of the vampire total plasma lift?
At vampire total plasma lift, the treatment begins with the application of the fraxel laser, in order to precede the activation of collagen.
Autologous mesotherapy is directly followed, by taking a small amount of blood from the patient.
The blood is centrifuged and the plasma, rich in platelets and stem cells, gets isolated which is then injected in the area where the fraxel laser was implemented.
The technique of mesotherapy is either done by injection (needle) or dermapen use (non-injectable prp).
After the end of treatment,restoration facial masks are used that help the face to recover immediately.
Is the treatment painful?
The treatment is performed at the clinic.
The blood sample is taken by very small butterfly needles (winged infusion set)and is completely painless, while the fraxel and PRPprocedures are very well tolerated with the use of a special anesthetic cream that is applied before the procedure.
The patient can return to daily activities directly.
Dr Anastasia Tzouma will give you instructions and skin care tips at the end of the treatment.
Are there any side effects associated with total plasma lift?
The vampire total plasma lift is the most safe and natural way to restore the skin's imperfections.
There are no side effects, since the body uses it's own blood and it's own regeneration mechanisms.
Small bruises from mesotherapy technique may occur but they disappear in the next few days.
How long does the treatment last and how many sessions are required?
Overall, the session lastsfor about an hour and most often a single session is sufficient.
The results are visible from the very next day but they are gradually improving day by day, since the process of collagen and elastin production is continued, as well as the process of restoration.
Can other treatments be combined with the vampire total plasma lift?
It can be perfectly combined with the application of hyaluronic acid but also with PDO threadson the face.
The duration of hyaluronic acid’s action mechanisms will be much greater and the action of the PDO threads will be further strengthened.
