Rejuvene - Dr. Deborah Sillins

If you’ve been doing hundreds of crunches and eating a healthy diet but still can’t achieve your ideal midsection, we want to introduce you to a procedure that can help. At Rejuvene Plastic Surgery in Hebron, KY, we offer abdominoplasty, a procedure also known as the tummy tuck. This cosmetic procedure uses surgical techniques to help both men and women improve the appearance of their midsections and enjoy long-lasting results. ABDOMINOPLASTY / BODY LIFT /THIGH LIFT / LIPOSUCTION Abdominoplasty is most commonly referred to as a tummy tuck and is an elective cosmetic surgical procedure that tightens and tones the abdominal region. The procedure enhances and perfects the appearance of the middle and lower abdomen. It uses surgical techniques to remove excess skin and fat from the area and tightens and strengthens the muscles and fascias on the abdominal wall. It uses liposuction techniques to remove excess fat cells from the midsection and delivers immediate results. This procedure is an effective way for men and women to contour their midsections and target imperfections that they cannot improve with diet changes, an exercise routine, or a healthy lifestyle. WHAT IT TREATS Both men and women of different ages make good candidates for a tummy tuck. The best candidates are in good health and understand the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle post-op to preserve results long-term. Women who have undergone one or multiple pregnancies or have seen unwanted changes to their midsection over time make good candidates for abdominoplasty. One or more pregnancies can cause excess fat and loose skin to define the midsection, which can lead to feeling less confident about your appearance. This procedure can help women regain their pre-baby midsections or look even better than they did even pre-pregnancy. CONTOURING THE BODY AFTER WEIGHT LOSS Additionally, this procedure is a good option for men and women who have completed an effective weight loss program and have lost a significant amount of weight. Substantial weight loss can leave behind loose skin, especially in the midsection. This can be discouraging when you have spent a lot of time and effort losing weight. However, an abdominoplasty can help with this issue. This procedure can help fine-tune your midsection so that you can enjoy all the benefits of reaching your goal weight and enjoy a tightened and toned midsection as well. ADDRESSING COSMETIC AND FUNCTIONAL CONCERNS This procedure can address many different cosmetic and functional concerns. It will contour your silhouette by removing excess fat and help create a tighter and more toned-looking midsection. It removes excess skin from the midsection while strengthening the core abdominal muscles. Many people don’t realize that a tummy tuck can also address functional concerns. It can help improve posture and even relieve specific types of back pain. Additionally, it can treat stress urinary incontinence and even correct a ventral hernia. This procedure will improve your confidence and help you look and feel better in swimsuits, tight-fitting clothing, or whatever you want to wear. CUSTOMIZING YOUR TUMMY TUCK Our experts don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach when designing an abdominoplasty treatment plan. Instead, they meet with each patient to discuss their cosmetic goals and then design a surgical plan that will help them reach those goals. Some patients want to address the middle abdominal area, others want to address the lower abdominal area, and even others want to address both. Whatever your goals and regardless of whether you want to treat functional or cosmetic concerns, we will design a treatment plan that transforms your midsection into the one of your dreams. THE RECOVERY PROCESS After your procedure, you will need someone to drive you home the same day of your surgery. You will also need someone to help you around the house perform household chores, meal preparation, and run errands for the first several days. For the first few days, you’ll need to focus on resting, and while you won’t be able to stand up completely straight at first, you will need to make it a priority to walk for a short time several times a day. Walking is such an important part of the recovery process because it helps you avoid constipation, prevents blood clots in the legs, and speeds up the healing process. WHAT TO EXPECT It typically takes approximately two weeks of recovery before patients can resume non-strenuous work. If you work at a job that requires a significant amount of standing, you’ll need to take three to four weeks off work. If you work a strenuous job, you’ll need to plan on taking six weeks off of work in order to recover. Our experts will give you more details about what kind of recovery you can expect and how to prepare for it before your scheduled surgery so that you can heal as quickly as possible and enjoy all the benefits of your tummy tuck.

Do you feel like your breasts aren’t ideal or that they have changed over time to be less of what you want? Luckily, there are surgical procedures that can help you transform the breasts you have into the ones you’ve always wanted. Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that we offer at Rejuvene Plastic Surgery in Hebron, KY, to help women achieve their ideal breasts. We also offer breast lifts, implant removal, breast reduction, and implant replacements with gel implants or Sientra gummy bear implants. BREAST AUGMENTATION Breast augmentation procedures are extremely customizable. Once you decide that you want to improve the appearance of your breasts with surgical implants, you’ll be able to choose the type, size, and shape of that implant as well as the incision location. We customize every procedure down to the very last detail to help our patients have the best experience and outcome. CHOOSING YOUR IMPLANT SIENTRA GUMMY BEAR IMPLANTS We offer Sientra Gummy Bear implants which are stable and cohesive implants with a specialized gel that enables them to hold their shape over time. Sientra Gummy Bear implants typically last longer than standard gel implants, has the lowest rupture rate, and look and feel more natural than most implants. GEL IMPLANTS Gel implants are typically filled with silicone gel inside a silicone shell and have always been a popular option for women who want to undergo breast augmentation. Gel implants are designed to feel like human fat, which helps them look and feel natural. CHOOSING THE INCISION LOCATION Dr. Sillins can make different types of incisions during this surgical procedure to insert your chosen implant. Each has its advantages and disadvantages, and she will provide you with details about each during your consultation. Because each patient is unique and has a specific body type and certain goals about how they want their implants to look, Dr. Sillins will determine the best surgical techniques during your initial consultation. There are four primary incision locations, and one may better suit some patients over others. The most common incision location is the inframammary fold since it allows for the most precision, but there are several options, including: Inframammary Fold: the most common incision location beneath the breast where it meets the chest Periareolar: a half-moon shaped incision is made around the nipple Transaxillary: the incision is made near the armpit Transumbilical: the incision is made through the belly button WHO IS A CANDIDATE? The best candidates for breast augmentation are women in good health who aren’t happy with the general appearance of their breasts, including the shape, size, and symmetry, or you simply want larger breasts, you may be a good candidate for this procedure. OTHER BREAST SURGERIES IMPLANT REMOVAL If you have a breast augmentation that you’re not happy with, or you just don’t want implants anymore, our expert surgeon Dr. Sillins can design an implant removal procedure that’s right for you. Some women need to remove implants for health reasons; others are tired of them or aren’t happy with a previous surgeon’s work. Whatever the case, we offer implant removal here at our office so that you can reach your aesthetic goals and live your life with breasts that you love. IMPLANT REPLACEMENTS Implants do not last forever and should be replaced if you have a rupture, deformity, or capsular contracture. Implant replacements can help ensure that you have the best quality implant and augmentation. If you have breast implants and need replacements, Dr. Sillins will meet with you to discuss your current implants and how to replace them with new implants. Implant replacements allow patients to make any desired changes in their breast implants, including the size, shape, or type of implant that they want to switch to. You can choose from Sientra gummy bear implants or gel implants. BREAST LIFTS Many women choose to add a breast lift to their augmentation. A breast augmentation will increase the size and improve the shape and proportion of your breasts, but it won’t lift them higher up on the chest wall or position the nipple correctly, that’s where breast lifts come in. Breast lifts are procedures that move the breasts higher on the chest wall to address sagging or droopy nipples resulting from skin laxity, pregnancy and nursing, as well as the aging process. This procedure aims to help women reach their aesthetic goals, combat the effects of aging, and achieve more youthful-looking breasts. Breast lifts can also be performed as standalone procedures for women who don’t necessarily want or need implants but want to reposition their breasts to make them more aesthetically pleasing.

WHAT IS A FACELIFT? Facelift surgery removes and tightens excess skin. It also smooths out wrinkles and folds, reduces the look of jowls and a double chin, and improves deep facial tissues. A significant benefit of facelift surgery is that it can address so many areas of the face in one procedure. The goal of a facelift is to restore a more youthful and vibrant appearance. It does so by lifting and firming the face. Most facelift patients look seven to ten years younger after surgery. Good candidates for a facelift are a person who has experienced a loss of skin elasticity and muscle tone of the face and neck from aging, gravitational and environmental factors. Patients of any age who have lost a significant amount of weight with resulting deflation and sagging of facial and neck tissue and skin will also greatly benefit from the procedure. Younger individuals may desire intervention sooner rather than later, to maintain their youthful look and put off more aggressive procedures. FACELIFT SURGERY RISKS As with any surgery, there are risks involved. Possible risks include nerve damage and delayed wound healing. Smokers are required to refrain from smoking before and after the procedure to reduce the likelihood of complications WHAT IS FACELIFT SURGERY RECOVERY LIKE? FACELIFT RECOVERY PROCESS You will receive detailed instructions about your post-surgical care. Recovery time will vary depending on the extent of your surgery and the addition of complementary procedures. Most patients experience some discomfort, but medication can relieve tenderness. Bruising and swelling will be at their worst after 2 days, and they can persist for a few days. Recovery normally takes around 2 weeks, and vigorous activity can resume after 4 weeks.

WHAT IS A RHINOPLASTY? Rhinoplasty also called cosmetic surgery of the nose or a ”nose job,” is a very popular procedure that can make profound differences not only in the balance of facial features but also in a person’s self-esteem. The aesthetic improvements that a rhinoplasty surgeon can make include decreasing or increasing the size of the nose, altering the tip or bridge of the nose, and narrowing or changing the shape of the nostrils. WHO IS A CANDIDATE FOR A RHINOPLASTY? Women and men both are candidates for cosmetic nose surgery. If you’re displeased with the overall look of your nose and have specific concerns you wish to enhance or repair, this surgery may be the right answer. It’s very important that expectations are understood as your appearance will be altered. Facial maturity should also be complete. This factor will be discussed during your consultation, even more so for individuals under 21. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM A RHINOPLASTY After your nose surgery, you will be monitored closely in our recovery room, and then our nurses will release you to rest at home. The area around the nose will be very swollen and bruised for a week or so. In almost all patients, there is bruising beneath the eyes in addition to the nose. Cold compresses and prescription medication can assist with these effects. Your post-operative appointment with Dr. Williams will be scheduled within 72 hours after surgery to assess your healing progress. On average, it takes around 2 – 4 weeks to heal from nose surgery. Within this process, strenuous activity or exercise should be avoided. HOW LONG IS RHINOPLASTY RECOVERY? After rhinoplasty surgery, patients can usually return to work 10 days to three weeks. Strenuous activity should be avoided for four to six weeks. Final results should be apparent six months to one year after surgery.

At Rejuvene Plastic Surgery in Hebron, KY, we offer bioidentical hormone replacement therapy for men and women. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, also known as BHRT, helps improve women’s sexual wellness and men’s sexual wellness and has many different hormone-balancing benefits. Hormone therapy leads to sexual rejuvenation and improved quality of life. We offer bioidentical pellet therapy with hormone pellets. Pellet therapy is simple, low maintenance, and effective in balancing your hormones so you can enjoy long-term results. BIOIDENTICAL HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY At Rejuvene Plastic Surgery, we know the importance of balanced hormone levels, which is why we offer hormone therapy, specifically bioidentical pellet therapy. This treatment process uses natural, bioidentical hormones derived from natural sources like yam and other plants to balance male and female hormones that begin to decrease with the aging process. The treatment improves the quality of everyday life, reverses some of the most common signs of aging, and leads to sexual rejuvenation for both men and women. It helps promote men’s sexual wellness, increases confidence, encourages weight loss, and helps increase lean muscle mass. BIOIDENTICAL HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY FOR MEN Men who suffer from imbalanced hormones typically have low testosterone levels. Testosterone is an important hormone, and it regulates more than just the male sex drive but also plays a role in many other vital body processes. When testosterone levels begin to drop, men may notice that their workouts become harder, and they begin to lose muscle mass and start gaining weight. THE IMPORTANCE OF TESTOSTERONE Testosterone is a muscle-building hormone, and optimal levels will help promote healthy regeneration and reduced recovery time after workouts. If you’ve noticed that you are gaining weight around your midsection and are dealing with some other negative symptoms, low testosterone may be to blame. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy for men with bioidentical pellet therapy will increase testosterone levels to what is considered optimal to alleviate symptoms and allow men to enjoy all of the hormone-balancing benefits that come with this treatment. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy for men can treat some of the most common symptoms of a hormone deficiency, including: Chronic fatigue Weight gain Decreased bone density Headaches Low libido Mental fog Irritability, anxiety, or depression Low energy levels Lack of motivation BIOIDENTICAL HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY FOR WOMEN Women also suffer from hormonal deficiencies, typically during menopause, which is why we offer bioidentical hormone replacement therapy for women. However, hormonal imbalances can affect women of all ages, and BHRT with pellet therapy is an effective way to increase female hormones to what would be considered optimal to alleviate symptoms and improve the quality of daily life. For women, pellet therapy is often referred to as estrogen therapy and delivers some immediate results. Your pellet will contain the exact amount of estrogen and testosterone your body needs. Our experts will determine your required dosage based on your blood panel, body weight, and age. Bioidentical pellet therapy for women can reverse some of the most common symptoms of menopause, increases energy levels, and promote women’s sexual wellness. BHRT WITH PELLET THERAPY At our office, we offer BHRT with bioidentical pellet therapy. Men and women suffering from an imbalance can schedule an initial consultation to determine and confirm their hormonal deficiencies, and then our experts can confirm treatment candidacy and then move forward with the treatment process. Hormone pellets contain all of the testosterone the male body needs and the estrogen and testosterone that the female body needs to alleviate symptoms and improve the quality of life. HORMONE PELLETS AND HOW THEY WORK Hormone pellets provide both men and women with a simple and effective way to balance hormones. During the treatment process, one of our expert providers will create a tiny incision in the upper buttocks after sanitizing the area and preparing it for the pellet insertion process. Before the incision is made, the area will be numbed with a local anesthetic which makes the process virtually painless. The pellet will be inserted and then covered with a bandage, and your treatment will be complete. BIOIDENTICAL PELLET THERAPY FOLLOW-UP TREATMENTS It’s important that you schedule regular follow-up treatments every three months to have your blood levels tested to ensure that your pellet dosage is accurate. You’ll only need three insertion appointments each year to maintain balanced hormone levels. Most patients begin to notice increased energy levels within the first month of the treatment process and improved sexual wellness.

PLATELET RICH PLASMA HAIR REGENERATION THERAPY Hair loss affects your confidence, but luckily, there is a treatment that can help restore your hair to its former glory. At Rejuvene Plastic Surgery in Hebron, KY, We perform hair restoration treatments using Platelet-Rich-Plasma and stem cells to help you achieve thicker and healthier hair. HAIR RESTORATION TREATMENTS Our hair rejuvenation treatments are completely natural, safe, and effective. They capitalize on the healing properties within your body to restore hair on your scalp. One of the best parts of our treatment is that you don’t have to worry about any adverse reactions or negative side effects because we use your bodies’ own cells to promote hair growth. There are many different topical products and medications that other companies and providers promise will help restore your hair, but most contain harsh chemicals and ingredients that can lead to some negative side effects that impact your health. Our treatments are safe and won’t result in any adverse reactions because the main ingredients come from your body, and are simply concentrated before being added back in. If you want to restore your hair the natural way, our hair rejuvenation experts will help you experience all the benefits of this natural yet powerful treatment process. WHAT THEY TREAT Hair restoration with stem cells and hair restoration with PRP can treat several different types of hair loss. They are specifically designed to promote hair growth, reverse hair loss, improve thinning hair, reverse a receding hairline, and treat male pattern baldness. There are many different factors that contribute to hair loss, including lifestyle factors, medication side effects, genetics, and health conditions. Since different patients have different hair-growth goals, our hair loss experts on the Kentucky side of the river from Cincinnati will evaluate your scalp and specific areas of concern to determine the best way to treat you. HAIR RESTORATION WITH PRP Hair restoration with PRP provides a powerful and natural way to heal the scalp and promote natural hair growth. This treatment has helped many different patients experience healthy hair growth after hair loss. Additionally, it is an effective treatment that can be utilized after a hair transplant procedure to promote and accelerate healing on the scalp and increase hair growth. Hair follicles need a healthy blood supply so that they can receive nutrition from the scalp, and hair restoration with PRP can help those hair follicles get exactly what they need to grow and thrive. WHAT IS PRP? PRP stands for platelet-rich-plasma. Platelet-rich-plasma is found in human blood. It’s a concentrated and isolated collection of platelets with healing and regenerative properties. Traditionally, platelet-rich plasma has been used to heal injured tendons, joints, ligaments, and other bodily tissues, but experts have found it promotes healing in the scalp as well. PRP can also be used in cosmetic treatments to rejuvenate the skin by improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, correcting skin imperfections, and delivering skin rejuvenating benefits which is another service we offer at Rejuvene. However, we can also use it to address the scalp by promoting hair growth, healing damaged hair follicles, and restoring dormant ones. PRP contains growth factors that cause the body to create natural healing mechanisms to promote hair health and revitalize the hair follicles. OBTAINING AND INJECTING PRP PRP comes directly from your blood. It can’t be bottled and used on multiple patients. Instead, it’s a completely personalized experience. Your PRP can’t be used to treat another person’s scalp and vice versa. It must be removed from your blood, isolated, and prepared into an injectable form. Our experts will perform a standard blood draw and then place your blood sample in a device that spins the blood to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the rest of your blood. Then, depending on your treatment plan, we can prepare an injectable containing PRP and stem cells and inject it into strategic areas of your scalp to target your areas of concern. HAIR RESTORATION WITH STEM CELLS While we use PRP to enhance hair growth and reverse hair loss in the majority of cases, we can also use stem cells. By their very nature, stem cells heal and repair body tissue. Stem cells derive their healing properties by being able to become any type of cell. This allows for incredible regenerative results. Hair restoration treatments with stem cells will help restore and regenerate hair follicles, promoting healthy hair growth. Injecting a combination of platelet-rich plasma and stem cells into your desired treatment area can improve your body’s response to PRP by further healing damaged hair follicles, restoring growth in dormant ones, and reversing hair loss in a completely safe and natural way.

At Rejuvene Plastic Surgery in Hebron, KY, we know that fine lines can make you feel anything but rejuvenated, which is why we offer two of the most popular anti-aging injectables, Botox and Dysport. Both qualify as a neuromodulator and contain a neurotoxin that gives them their ability to quickly and safely remove wrinkles. If you want to improve your appearance and confidence, these treatments can help you achieve subtle and natural-looking results. BOTOX AND DYSPORT: THE ANTI-AGING INJECTABLES Botox and Dysport are anti-aging injectables that smooth expression lines on the upper half of the face. Botox is FDA-approved to treat frown lines between the eyebrows, crow’s feet at the outer corners of the eyes, and forehead lines. Dysport is FDA-approved to smooth frown lines between the eyebrows. Both of these injectables provide patients with an effective way to temporarily erase fine lines and wrinkles so that they can feel more confident about their appearance. WHAT IS A NEUROMODULATOR? A neuromodulator is a technical term for a wrinkle-relaxing injectable. Unlike dermal fillers, which restore volume to the face, a neuromodulator works by addressing wrinkles at the muscular level. It contains an ingredient called a neurotoxin which forces your muscles to relax and smoothes out your wrinkles. Both Botox and Dysport are neuromodulators that are FDA-approved to smooth lines and wrinkles that have formed due to repetitive movements and thinning skin. WHAT IS A NEUROTOXIN? A neurotoxin is a primary ingredient in a wrinkle-relaxing injectable. It is the ingredient that inhibits the communication between the muscles and nerve signals so that they cannot contract. When Botox or Dysport is injected into a muscle, the neurotoxin will work by relaxing that muscle and blocking the communication between the muscles and the nerve signals. This specifically targets extremely small muscles in your face that are significant causes of wrinkles. As a result, fine lines begin to fade, and you will see your complexion take on a more youthful-looking appearance. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF WRINKLE REMOVAL TREATMENTS? If you’re interested in wrinkle removal treatments, these injectables can help improve your appearance and help you reach your goals. Treatments are quick, virtually painless, and deliver long-lasting results. If your lines and wrinkles are making you feel older than you are, both Botox and Dysport can temporarily eliminate those wrinkles so that you can enjoy a smoother and more youthful complexion. Results look natural and subtle yet will make a significant difference in your overall appearance. REMOVING FINE LINES FROM THE FACE: THE TREATMENT PROCESS This treatment process begins with an initial consultation. You’ll sit down with one of our injectable experts, who will evaluate your problem areas and learn more about your aesthetic goals. Then, you’ll be asked some questions about your health history to confirm that you are a good treatment candidate and that one or both of these injectables are safe options for you. Once we confirm that you are a good candidate, we will create your treatment plan. You can choose to treat one or multiple areas of your face during your appointment so that you can achieve your cosmetic goals as quickly and safely as possible. THE INJECTION PROCESS When you arrive for your treatment, one of our expert injectors will first sanitize your skin and then make a series of injections into the muscles responsible for the wrinkles in your problem areas. Depending on your treatment plan, you may receive injections in one area or multiple areas of your face. If needed, we can apply a topical numbing solution before beginning the treatment process so that you can maintain your comfort. Even without a topical numbing solution, most patients describe the treatment process as virtually painless. Injections are quick and only take a few minutes to complete. Once your treatment is over, you can resume most of your normal daily activities immediately. IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME? Botox and Dysport are considered “lunchtime injectables” since the treatment process is so quick. You won’t have to worry about downtime, but you will be asked to avoid specific activities and environments to ensure the best results. It’s important that you keep your head elevated for at least four hours after your treatment, avoid hot environments that increase your body temperature, avoid strenuous workouts for 24 hours, and avoid touching the treatment sites. Your expert injector will give you a complete list of aftercare instructions to review what to avoid and how to care for the treatment sites to ensure that you achieve the best results.

This peel contains 3 different acids to exfoliate your skin and promote cell turnover; with 10% Salicylic Acid, 10% Lactic Acid and 10% Citric Acid.

The salicylic acid works on oily, acne prone skin, and the citric acid gives the skin a healthy glow.

At Rejuvene Plastic Surgery in Hebron, KY, our skincare experts custom-tailor every treatment for both men and women, including microneedling with PRP. Microneedling is a treatment that stimulates collagen with a device called the Rejuvapen; the collagen production results get even better when we add PRP, platelet-rich plasma, to the process. This treatment is perfect for men and women looking for an anti-aging treatment that produces natural and noticeable results to increase collagen growth. MICRONEEDLING WITH PRP: THE ANTI-AGING TREATMENT THAT PROMOTES COLLAGEN PRODUCTION Microneedling is an incredibly effective treatment that naturally and visibly improves skin health while eliminating certain imperfections. However, microneedling with PRP is even more effective because you can achieve nearly twice the results with one procedure. When you add PRP to your microneedling treatment, expect to see increased collagen production, elastin production, improved skin volume, and even better skin tone and texture. HOW MICRONEEDLING STIMULATES COLLAGEN GROWTH Microneedling stimulates collagen growth by creating tiny wounds on the skin’s surface, and the body reacts to these micro-injuries with increased collagen production. The process also creates micro-channels in the skin, so anything you apply to the skin after the treatment process will better absorb into the dermis, including collagen stimulating and anti-aging products. When we use PRP during treatment, the topical solution absorbs into these channels. It helps the body generate new collagen and create powerful growth factors with regenerative capabilities. WHAT IS PLATELET-RICH PLASMA? PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma and is a substance found in human blood. The platelet-rich plasma contains growth factors and regenerative properties designed to heal the body. It promotes a healthier and more youthful complexion when used on the skin after a microneedling treatment. It will help with texture, fine lines, acne and tighten the skin. Your platelet-rich plasma comes directly from your body which means that you don’t have to worry about experiencing an allergic or adverse reaction after the treatment process. THE REJUVAPEN MICRONEEDLING TREATMENT PROCESS The microneedling with PRP treatment process is straightforward. First, our expert technician will apply a topical numbing solution to your skin. Once it takes effect, the treatment process will begin, and the technician will use the Rejuvapen to gently stamp the sterile medical-grade needles into the skin. The Rejuvapen creates thousands of tiny micro-channels across the skin’s surface, and your body will respond by cleansing the wounds and increasing collagen and elastin production. MICRONEEDLING WITH PRP Microneedling with PRP involves adding a topical platelet-rich plasma solution to the microneedling treatment process.The technician will apply the PRP solution to the skin so that it can absorb into the micro-channels and create visible changes in the appearance, health, and clarity of the skin. OBTAINING AND USING THE PRP The PRP used during the treatment process comes from your blood, so we must perform a standard blood draw to obtain it. Once we have a sample of your blood, we will need to separate the PRP from the rest of your blood. We do this by placing your blood sample in a device called a centrifuge. The centrifuge is designed to separate ingredients in a solution by spinning rapidly for several minutes. During this process, the Platelet-Rich-Plasma separates from the rest of the blood and rises to the top of the vial. Then, once the PRP is isolated and removed, our expert providers will prepare it for treatment and apply it to the skin. Once applied, it will absorb into the deeper layers and begin to create lasting changes. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS WHEN WILL I SEE RESULTS? Patients often notice initial improvements in their appearance immediately following their treatment due to an instant contraction of the existing collagen that makes the skin appear tighter and firmer. The best results typically appear within four to six weeks of the treatment since your body will ramp up your collagen production during that time. You’ll see your skin slowly improve in the weeks following your treatment, especially when you follow your treatment regimen as directed by our skin rejuvenation experts. HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT TAKE? The entire treatment process takes approximately one hour to complete. When it’s over, you can resume your normal daily activities. WHAT DOES IT TREAT? This treatment stimulates collagen and, in doing so, treats several different skin conditions. It can reverse sun damage, promote an even skin tone, reduce the appearance of acne scars and pockmarks, brighten dull skin, shrink large pores, treat broken capillaries, and even reduce the appearance of stretch marks.
