- What is PRP?
PRP stands for Platelet-rich plasma and is a unique treatment used in aesthetics for skin rejuvenation. You may have heard it dubbed ‘the Vampire Facial’ because we collect some of your blood and process it into a powerful serum (PRP) that is re-injected into your skin. When PRP is correctly administered it has been scientifically proven to REFRESH, TONE & TIGHTEN by repairing the elasticity, colour and quality of the skin.
Here at EA Aesthetics in Cairns we use the top-of-the-range Alocuro Pro-PRP system. It allows us to refine the PRP serum into a high-dose platelet solution that means we can provide superior treatments with maximum results.
- What does PRP treat?
PRP is an excellent treatment for SKIN HEALTH and REJUVENATION. We use PRP to treat:
- Improve the overall health, tone and elasticity of the skin
- Reduce shallow wrinkles and lines
- Improve crepey skin under the eyes
- Minimise the appearance of scars
- Minimise the visible signs of aged and sun damaged skin
- Promote more even skin tone and texture
- Does it hurt, is it dangerous?
We use topical numbing cream to make your treatment more comfortable. PRP is not dangerous. We handle your blood sample with complete care. It is very safe to be reinjected into your skin. We re-inject the PRP serum with either a tiny needle or our mesotherapy gun. Because we are using needles there is always a chance of small bruises- these can last a few days but are easily covered with makeup. You may also have some mild puffiness around the eyes for a few days.
- What is the benefit of having PRP and Hydroboosters together?
Hydroboosters are a mix of highly concentrated non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid and essential nutrients (amino acids, antioxidants, minerals and vitamins). Hydroboosters can be mixed with PRP and be reinjected into your skin.
We combine the skin health and rejuvenation qualities of the PRP with the hydrating and healing benefits of the Hydroboosters to offer you fantastic, INSTANT results. Your skin will be plumper, stronger and healthier. You will be radiant.
