PRP Injections: Is Filler just for lips?

What types of PRP Injections are there?

At Bamboo Aesthetics, we get a lot of questions about PRP. What exactly is PRP? Who can benefit from PRP? How is PRP different to Dermal Fillers? Are fillers only for lips? In this blog post we hope to answer all these questions and more.

Firstly, at Bamboo Aesthetics, we offer three types of PRP treatment – Natural Filler, Vampire Facelift and Hair Loss Solution. PRP injections can be used to target stubborn areas of the face, as well as for general beautification of the whole face. PRP has become popular thanks to its use by stars such as Kim Kardashian. But what exactly is all the fuss about? And more importantly, what on earth is PRP?

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is plasma containing many factors essential for cell survival including vitamins, hormones and nutrients. Inside the plasma are essential molecules for cell migration, differentiation and proliferation. The platelets are essential for hard and soft tissue repair. In more simple language, this magical plasma encourages cell regrowth and repair, and is introduced to the body for a more youthful appearance.

So who exactly can benefit from PRP? Well, the answer is simple – anyone. Anyone can benefit from PRP as the formula accelerates cellular regeneration. No matter what age you, the process aids in skin hydration, resulting in a younger looking you.

One question we hear a lot is whether or not filler can be used in areas of the face other than the lips. Of course it can! Similar to dermal fillers, PRP natural filler can be used to target stubborn or unloved areas of the face. PRP filler is used for skin regeneration,  leading to enhancement of skin texture and elasticity. This is achieved by increasing the number of collagen fibers. The difference between PRP and Dermal Fillers is that PRP injections combine PRP with Hyaluronic Acid .

By combining PRP with HA, we are left with a natural filler which creates a volumising effect, leaving the skin with more elasticity, tone and thickness. It’s no wonder then that natural filler is so popular with so many across the road.

PRP Injections – Vampire Facelift

Targeting specific areas can leave the face looking a little odd, why is we recommend beautification of the whole face. During a free consultation with one of our expert practitioners, you will have the chance to discuss with the practitioner your insecurities and areas of focus for your rejuvenation. The practitioner in turn will reveal what is achievable with PRP or Dermal Fillers. The practitioner will offer you the best advice possible to assure that you are left with not only a fresh younger look, but also a natural younger look.

An extremely popular method of beautification of the whole face is with the Vampire Facelift. This non surgical face lift was brought to the spot light after Kim Kardashian famously had one on her reality show. Don’t let the name put you off however as there is very little to be scared about with this treatment. The Vampire Facelift uses PRP technology to provide you with a natural way of achieving beautification of the whole face. The difference between the Vampire Facelift and PRP natural filler is that the Vampire Facelift doesn’t contain Hyaluronic Acid.

How does the PRP technique actually work then? Well we simply take a small amount of blood before putting it through a centrifuge. Don’t worry though! It’s no more blood than a doctor or nurse would take during a blood test. The centrifuge separates the red and white blood cells to create a the Platelet Rich Plasma. The plasma, as described above, contains everything you need to rejuvenate tired cells, and encourage the growth of new cells. The formula is then re-injected into targeted areas of the face and bam! It’s a waiting game. With in a matter of days you’ll notice the magical effect of the scientifically proved formula that is the Vampire Facelift. If you’re intrigued by the treatment, or simply want more information, feel free to contact us on 02920 569769 or read more on Vampire Facelift page.

PRP Injections – Hair Loss Treatment

The magic doesn’t end there though! Did you know PRP can also be used as hair loss treatment? We kid you not! We use the same PRP technique as the Vampire Facelift but the area of focus this time is the scalp. Cell regeneration is encouraged, resulting in the slowing down of hair loss and the encouraging of hair growth.

PRP injections in to the scalp are extremely popular especially with men. However, the treatment is suitable for both men and women of all ages.

So as you can see, fillers are not only for the lips. Dermal Fillers and PRP natural filler can be used to create a more youthful appearance. The difference between the two is that natural filler uses a mix of your own blood and hyaluronic acid. Filler can be used on any area of the face, and as we said, should you be interested in a treatment, an expert practitioner will offer only the best expert advice well before treatment day.

If you’re interested in PRP treatment as opposed to natural filler or dermal filler, then you’re also ending up with a more youthful appearance. Which you opt for is entirely up to you.
