Beber Plastic Cosmetic Surgery
Over the years we have seen a big change in how people go about rejuvenating their skin at Beber Plastic Surgery. More and more patients are interested in therapies that use their own body’s natural healing powers rather than synthetic products or surgery. PRP skin therapy is now part of this regenerative approach. It can help with a multitude of skin concerns by working with your own biology.
Platelet rich plasma (PRP) comes from your own blood. We take a small sample and use a centrifuge to separate the platelets from the rest of the plasma and concentrate them into a smaller volume. These platelets are full of proteins and growth factors that your body needs to heal wounds and grow new tissue. We give your cells a boost to rejuvenate and heal themselves by applying this concentrated solution to your skin. Labia Reduction is designed to improve comfort and symmetry in the genital area. The procedure can reduce irritation and enhance confidence. Many individuals choose Labia Reduction for both functional and aesthetic benefits.
One of the best things about PRP skin treatment is how versatile it is. We use it to treat fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin texture, acne scars, sun damage, and skin that has lost its glow. We’ve also found it works well on the skin of the face, neck, chest and hands. You can customize the treatment to your needs and the areas you want to work on. When people in Toronto ask us about PRP skin treatment in Toronto, we have a long conversation with them to find out what their concerns are and how their skin is doing. We believe in being honest about this: not everyone is a good fit. People with certain blood disorders, those who take certain medications or those who have unrealistic expectations may not be eligible for PRP treatment. We look at each person individually to make sure the treatment will work for them.
The first step in the treatment process is to take blood from your arm, just like a regular blood test. We take 10-20 millilitre of blood, depending on the area of the body we are treating. The blood goes into special tubes and then into a centrifuge that spins for a few minutes to separate the parts. As a result we have a concentrated platelet solution that we can inject into the skin or use with microneedling on the skin. PRP Hair Restoration uses the body’s growth factors to support thicker, healthier hair. This non-surgical option stimulates natural hair growth over time. PRP Hair Restoration is ideal for individuals noticing early thinning.
We have found that using PRP and microneedling together works well to make the skin look younger overall. There are two reasons why the microneedling makes thousands of tiny channels in the skin. First, it starts your body’s wound healing process which makes collagen. Second, it allows the PRP to go deep into the dermis where it can work with the cells. We apply numbing cream before we start so you are comfortable the whole time.
It’s usually easy to get better after PRP skin treatment. Your skin will be red and sore immediately, like a sunburn. Most of the time this goes away in a few days, although some people may have moderate swelling or bruising. While your skin is healing you should avoid several things, working out hard and being in the sun. We give you aftercare instructions based on the type of treatment you had.
As your skin reacts to the growth factors in the PRP the results get better over time. Most patients start to see benefits in 3-4 weeks and these improvements get better over the next few months. The skin usually looks smoother, tighter and more luminous. The texture usually gets better and fine lines may get softer. These are real changes in the health of the skin not just cosmetic benefits. We recommend a series of PRP skin treatments for best results. You may see some benefits after one treatment but most people see greater and longer lasting results with 3-4 treatments spaced a month apart. After the first round of treatments maintenance treatments may help keep the progress.
Many people in Toronto like PRP skin treatment because it works with the body’s own biology. At Beber Plastic Surgery we like treatments that help the body heal itself not work against it. PRP is a great example of this principle because it uses your own healing factors to fix skin problems from the inside out.
Book an appointment for a consultation if you’re thinking about PRP skin treatment. During this time we will examine your skin, talk about your goals and see if this regenerative approach is right for you. Our promise is to help you make informed decisions about your care by giving you honest assessments and realistic expectations of what different treatments can do.
