Natural biostimulation and regeneration of skin and hair with plasma
Platelet-rich plasma PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is one of the best-researched methods of regenerative medicine, utilizing the body's natural potential to rebuild the skin and stimulate repair processes. The therapy is based on the administration of concentrated blood platelets and growth factors obtained from the patient's own blood, triggering the mechanisms responsible for tissue regeneration, renewal, and rejuvenation.
At Ambasada Urody, every procedure is preceded by a detailed medical consultation, during which we assess the skin condition, the stage of aging processes, and the body's individual regenerative potential. This allows us to create a personalized therapy program tailored to the patient's needs and expected results.
Platelet-rich plasma PRP does not mask signs of aging or alter facial features. Its purpose is to stimulate the skin for intensive rebuilding from within, ensuring that the results develop gradually and maintain a natural character.
HOW DOES PLATELET-RICH PLASMA WORK?
The platelet-rich plasma biostimulation program utilizes the body's natural abilities for regeneration and cellular renewal. After administering the preparation into the skin, blood platelets are activated, releasing numerous growth factors responsible for repair processes and tissue reconstruction.
Platelet-rich plasma contains, among others, growth factors PDGF, VEGF, TGF-β, EGF, and IGF, which play a crucial role in regenerative processes.
Thanks to their action, the following occur:
- stimulation of natural repair processes in the skin;
- activation of fibroblasts responsible for the production of new collagen and elastin;
- stimulation of angiogenesis, i.e., the formation of new blood vessels that improve tissue blood supply;
- improvement of oxygenation and nourishment of skin cells; stimulation of progenitor cells participating in regeneration processes;
- reconstruction of the extracellular matrix responsible for skin firmness and elasticity;
- increase in hydration levels and improvement of tissue quality;
- acceleration of healing and regeneration after other aesthetic medicine treatments.
The skin aging process is associated with a gradual decline in the activity of cells responsible for tissue renewal. Platelet-rich plasma therapy helps restore natural regenerative mechanisms, allowing the skin to regain freshness, a healthy tone, and a younger appearance.
WHAT DOES PLATELET-RICH PLASMA HELP WITH?
Platelet-rich plasma is recommended for people who want to stimulate the skin's natural regenerative processes and are looking for a therapy that utilizes the body's own resources.
The treatment is particularly effective for:
- tired, dehydrated, and dull skin;
- loss of firmness and elasticity; fine wrinkles and first signs of aging;
- reduced skin density;
- skin laxity of the face, neck, décolletage, and hands;
- dark circles and fine wrinkles around the eyes;
- uneven skin tone;
- acne and post-traumatic scars;
- regeneration after laser treatments and plastic surgery;
- excessive hair loss;
- androgenetic alopecia in women and men;
- weakened, thin, and volumeless hair.
The therapy is particularly often chosen by patients who expect natural results and want to improve skin quality without the effect of artificial volume.
EFFECTS OF PLATELET-RICH PLASMA THERAPY
CONTRAINDICATIONS TO PLATELET-RICH PLASMA TREATMENT
Although platelet-rich plasma PRP is an autologous preparation obtained from the patient's own blood, the procedure requires prior medical consultation. A detailed medical history and health assessment make it possible to rule out contraindications and plan the therapy in a safe and effective manner.
The most important contraindications include:
- pregnancy and breastfeeding period;
- active viral, bacterial, or fungal infections;
- fever and acute systemic inflammation;
- active skin inflammation at the planned treatment site, including herpes;
- cancerous diseases and the period of oncological treatment;
- blood clotting disorders and severe hematological diseases;
- thrombocytopenia and platelet function disorders;
- use of anticoagulants and certain medications affecting blood clotting;
- severe autoimmune diseases;
- uncontrolled diabetes;
- severe liver and kidney diseases;
- sepsis and systemic infections;
- pharmacologically uncontrolled epilepsy;
- tendency to keloid formation;
- significant weakness of the body.
In the case of scalp therapy, the doctor may additionally recommend extended diagnostics to determine the cause of hair loss and choose the most effective treatment plan. Each qualification for the procedure is conducted individually and takes into account the patient's state of health and expectations.
RECOMMENDATIONS AFTER PLATELET-RICH PLASMA TREATMENT
Platelet-rich plasma treatment does not require a long recovery period, but proper post-treatment care supports natural regenerative processes and allows for achieving optimal therapy results.
For the first 24–48 hours after the treatment, it is recommended to:
- avoid intense physical exertion;
- refrain from saunas, swimming pools, jacuzzis, and hot baths;
- limit exposure to the sun and high temperatures;
- use creams with high sun protection SPF 50;
- avoid alcohol consumption;
- refrain from massaging and intensely rubbing the treated area;
- refrain from performing peels and using irritating cosmetics;
- maintain proper body hydration.
In the case of a treatment performed on the scalp, it is additionally recommended to:
- refrain from hairdressing treatments for a few days;
- avoid hair dyeing for about a week;
- use gentle cleansing products according to the doctor's recommendations.
Immediately after the treatment, temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, or minor bruising may occur, which usually resolve spontaneously within a few days.
Following post-treatment recommendations, a healthy lifestyle, and regular maintenance treatments support the skin renewal process and allow the results of platelet-rich plasma therapy to be maintained longer.
