Celeb Dermatologist Offers Vampire Facial for Fountain of Youth Results
Derm to the stars Dr. Steven Victor’s latest rejuvenation technique has some surprising and unexpected results.
New York, NY, August 15, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Think less Edward Cullen and more Elizabeth Bathory—the vampire facial, known medically as the Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injection was given its nickname because the state-of-the-art treatment involves drawing some of the patient's own blood and using valuable elements to counteract the signs of aging and restore a youthful appearance to the face.
"We can separate and use components of the patient's blood that contain high concentrations of protein and growth factors," says Dr. Steven Victor, director of Victor Dermatology and Rejuvenation.
The body uses these platelets, growth factors and white blood cells to accelerate new growth and skin repair on the cellular level. Through this procedure collagen and elastin production are stimulated and fine lines are diminished, naturally. Also, the skin will appear tightened and the face more contoured.
"Because the PRP is taken from the patient's own blood the risk of complications or infections are very low," says the doctor of the treatment.
While platelet rich plasma injections have been used in orthopedics for years, it is relatively new in the world of dermatology. Doctors have found an additional cosmetic benefit of PRP treatments: thickening of hair. Preliminary studies show that injecting the scalp with the growth factors present in PRP signals follicle cells to "heal and grow," according to a Yonsei University college of Medicine in Seoul researcher.
In the study two treatments, given three months apart significantly boosted hair thickness.
"This is an exciting way to address thinning hair and balding," says Dr. Victor.
