Acne & Scar Removal

Scars caused by Acne, trauma or postoperative can be disfiguring and embarrassing for those who suffer from them. Fortunately one can correct deep, pitted scars to the point of making them disappear. The only way to fully get rid of scars is to undergo an in-clinic procedure. We provide treatments in a variety of price packages to help reduce appearance of acne and scarring.

The moment you cut your skin, all you see is blood – those are red blood cells. After the bleeding stops, you’ll see a yellow bit “gluing” your skin together and that is our wonderful plasma.

During the infamous Vampire Treatment, Platelet Rich Plasma containing: platelets, minerals, vitamins and growth factors is used for the healing response to the damaged tissue which occurred either through the ageing process or any recent mechanical injuries / scars.

Platelet Rich Plasma injections improve your skin texture, colour, increases fibrin and collagen growth. The skin looks fresher, youthful and glowing.

After injection, plasma will be absorbed within 3 days. During this time you should not expose your skin to any strong chemicals. Over the next 3 to 6 weeks stem cells will work in your skin continuing visible repair and healing.

The process ensures visible results from one to one and a half years depending on your lifestyle. Repeated procedures will lay additional processes of growing collagen, fibrin and elastin on top of the first process. That ensures even better results.

The Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Procedure

After determining that the Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment is right for you, a small amount of your blood will be drawn, similar to having basic blood tests at your doctor’s office. This will then be used to prepare the PRP in a 15 minute process. During that time, the areas to be treated will be cleansed and prepared for the procedure. Once this is done, the platelet rich plasma (PRP) is injected into the skin to be treated. Serum received from poor platelet plasma (PPR) are then applied to these areas. The entire process typically takes no more than 35-45 minutes.

Effects decrease in heavy smokers or alcohol use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Scientific point of view

The body’s healing process does not work efficiently and instead of forming healthy collagen fibres and tissues, the body develops significant fibrous or scar tissue. One of the main risk factors is lack of blood flow to the area to provide the healing powers of platelets and growth factors. The development of scar tissue prohibits proper blood flow as new capillaries and other small blood vessels cannot penetrate through scar tissue, to provide blood flow to the injured area. For this reason the affected joint, tendon, ligament or soft tissue area fails to heal completely.

The concentrated platelets release a surge of bioactive proteins and growth factors that begin to recruit other healing cells to migrate into the area to promote a powerful effective healing cascade. The regeneration of new tissue is accomplished by stem cells and fostered by growth factors and hormones. The human body has a remarkable ability to heal itself, and by re-injecting concentrated platelets, we maximise stem cell release to optimise healing.

"...nothing but confidence ..."
