We draw one tube of your blood, spin it through a special centrifuge, and withdrawal the plasma.
You body has the ability to heal itself. Your plasma contains healing factors such as stem cells, growth factors, proteins to support cell growth, and so much more.
Collagen Induction Therapy is a cosmetic procedure that involves repeatedly puncturing the skin with tiny, sterile needles. It will induce the healing process which will help new collagen production.
This minimally invasive treatment works to repair lines, wrinkles, acne scars, uneven skin texture and tone. As we age, the amount of collagen that our skins produces- decreases significantly.
For VAMPIRE FACIALS
it is the exact procedure except we use your blood product (plasma) to assist healing and rejuvenation. We spin your blood to separate the nutrients and growth factors and micro-needle it into your skin. The benefits are astounding! We also add manual injections of your plasma into the problematic areas.
