Vampire Facial
The PlasmaGlow Facial is a very simple yet incredibly effective medical grade skincare strategy for rejuvenating the face. Plasma, derived from your own blood is applied and worked into the skin with a professional micro-needling tool. The micro-needling tool creates micro punctures in the skin thus activating the collagen and elastin cascades to create new cells and rejuvenation. The plasma is used to simulate stem cells that exist in the face.
Restor
A minimally manipulated allograft (tissue transported from one person to another), derived from the umbilical cord tissue layer of Wharton’s Jelly and processed to maximize concentration. Wharton’s jelly cells have high-differentiated potential, an immune-privileged status and easy access for collection, which raise no legal or ethical issues. Of all of the biologics products, the amount of growth factors, cytokines, hyaluronic acid, cellular components and extracellular vesicles are higher in Wharton’s Jelly.
RExO
An innovative product that offers advanced healing properties. Extracellular vesicles are found in all bodily fluids and are primarily used in cell signaling. RExO has three times more growth factors than autologous cells and influences the growth of target cells. They are a vital regenerative component due to their unique ability to transfer information from cell to cell.
A non-surgical and minimally invasive procedure that promotes collagen and combats aging skin. It involves using the patient’s own blood to extract platelets, which are rich in growth factors and other beneficial substances. These platelets are then processed and used to specifically target skin imperfections such as acne scars, wrinkles, and discoloration.
The process begins with a simple blood draw from the patient, like a standard blood test. The blood is then placed in a centrifuge, where it is spun at a high speed to separate the platelets from other components of the blood. This concentrated rich plasma is then collected and prepared for injection or microneedling. The growth factors present in the platelets stimulate collagen production, promoting healing and improving the overall quality of the skin.
