How does Cellenis® PRP work?
A small sample of blood is taken from your arm, exactly like having a routine blood test. The blood is centrifuged, and 10 minutes later, the PRP has been separated from the whole blood and is ready to use. Once on site, the growth factors and other regenerative molecules are released leading to collagen and elastin formation as well as cellular growth and skin remodelling. This results in long-lasting skin rejuvenation.
What will I feel immediately after the treatment?
The sensations vary between each person and treatment. Since PRP is autologous (self-sourced), adverse reactions are rare. You may experience slight redness, swelling, mild bruising and pain. Those reactions usually pass in a day or two.
What are the benefits of Cellenis® PRP?
This treatment improves skin texture and tone, refines wrinkles and reduces scars such as acne or stretch marks while preserving a natural appearance. Cellenis® PRP can also be used to promote hair growth when injected into the scalp. Visible results may take between 2-6 weeks and will vary between individuals. This variance depends on factors such as general health, age, diet, smoking and skin type.
