Plasmotherapy

Plasma therapy, also called PRP therapy, is very popular among those who are struggling with the first signs of ageing, acne and signs of pigmentation from inflammation. The technique is very versatile and helps in solving a whole set of problems.

What results can be expected from plasma therapy:

• improves skin tone and appearance, normalizing metabolic processes;
• reduces the appearance of fine wrinkles;
• smoothes out acne marks;
• evens out tone and helps eliminate pigmentation.

The procedure involves injecting your own blood plasma into problem areas. Before the procedure, venous blood is donated at a cosmetology clinic and placed in a special centrifuge to obtain platelet-rich plasma. A painkiller will be applied to make the procedure as comfortable as possible for you. Next, the plasma is injected using ultra-thin needles that minimally injure the skin.

The plasma-based drug contains a complex of proteins, beneficial microelements, and so-called “growth factors” that stimulate the production of collagen and thereby help maintain youth. The main advantage is that the plasma is isolated from the patient’s own blood and is completely compatible with their body. This minimizes the risk of allergic reactions and side effects.

Plasma therapy has a number of limitations: the procedure is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding, bleeding disorders and other problems with the cardiovascular system, in the presence of infections, inflammatory processes, and endocrine and oncological diseases. A few days before the event, it is better to completely eliminate alcoholic drinks, and spicy, fatty, and salty foods from your diet.

On average, the recovery period after the procedure takes from three to five days, but in this matter, everything depends on the individual characteristics and degree of skin sensitivity. During recovery, it is better not to use decorative cosmetics, minimize exposure to open sunlight and try to prevent the skin from heating up. The effect will last for a long time if maintained with proper home care. Plasma therapy combines perfectly with other techniques. For example, with biorevitalization and contour plastic surgery. We also provide these services at the Silk Medical clinic in Tbilisi. Our cosmetologists will be happy to select a comprehensive course of procedures for you to help you achieve the desired result.
