Loose skin and wrinkles are a natural part of the aging process, but that doesn’t mean they’re inevitable—or untreatable. At DeeTox, our team of providers, led by physician and wellness expert Dr. Bode, can perform a skin treatment that takes advantage of your body’s own biological healing abilities.
Using the growth factors in your own blood, our team members can address many of the most common symptoms of aging. This includes poor texture, uneven tone, fine lines, wrinkles, and more.
If you’re interested in an aesthetic treatment that uses your body’s healing abilities to provide noticeable results, talk with our team about platelet enriched plasma in Chapel Hill.
The PRP Process
The key to platelet enriched plasma treatments lies in your blood.
Your blood is made up of several components, but plasma is perhaps the most important. This is the liquid part of the blood, and it contains platelets, which are instrumental in the clotting process. The platelets themselves contain a number of growth factors, which provide the mechanism for skin renewal.
When you come to our clinic for injections of platelet enriched plasma in Chapel Hill, we take a blood sample and spin it in a centrifuge. This allows us to separate the platelet-rich plasma (the part of the blood with healing growth factors) from the rest of the sample.
We can then inject the platelet-rich plasma into your skin or apply it topically to address your aesthetic concerns.
Results That Improve
You will need multiple treatment sessions to experience the best results. Our physician-led team typically recommend you receive at least 3 platelet-rich plasma treatments for noticeable rejuvenation.
Fortunately, there is no downtime or recovery time following this treatment. You may experience some tenderness in the treatment area, but this should abate by the end of the day. You won’t need to wait long to experience your results, either. You can notice initial results after just 1 to 2 weeks, and those results will only continue to improve.
PRP triggers the production of collagen, proteins that provide your skin with increased structure and enhanced texture. These proteins can take months to produce, so over time, you can continue to experience gradual aesthetic improvements. In some cases, these improvements can persist for up to a year.
Experience the Power of Natural Skin Rejuvenation
Unlike fillers or neurotoxins, PRP isn’t adding anything external to your body — it’s using what’s already there to trigger a natural healing response.
