WANT TO REJUVENATE<br />

YOUR SKIN WITHOUT<br />

LOOKING “WORKED<br />

ON”? THERE’S A<br />

TREATMENT FOR THAT!<br />

There’s a lot of buzz<br />

around regenerative<br />

medicine these<br />

days, and for good<br />

reason. Regenerative<br />

medicine is<br />

becoming the new<br />

way to improve<br />

the look of your skin by using your<br />

own blood. Platelet Rich Plasma<br />

(PRP) is one such procedure and<br />

is becoming increasingly sought<br />

after due to its plumping and agedefying<br />

results.<br />

EmCyte Pure PRP is one of the<br />

key players in PRP systems, using<br />

your own cells to improve skin<br />

texture, clarity, lines and wrinkles.<br />

It provides a ‘natural’ alternative to<br />

anti-ageing and has become a huge<br />

hit for those wanting to improve their<br />

appearance without looking done.<br />

“This gradual method gives the<br />

patient a more natural approach to<br />

rejuvenation, allowing them to<br />

look refreshed naturally, not<br />

artifi cially,” says cosmetic doctor<br />

Dr Abbas Al-Taiff from Westmead<br />

Aesthetic Palace in Sydney.<br />

If you’re looking for a minimalfuss<br />

minimal-downtime rejuvenation<br />

treatment with exceptional results,<br />

EmCyte PRP could be for you.<br />

HOW DOES EMCYTE<br />

PURE PRP WORK?<br />

PRP is all about stimulating tissue<br />

regeneration that exists within the skin<br />

and concentrating the elements of your<br />

blood that will trigger this regeneration.<br />

“It’s important to understand that<br />

PRP is not a muscle relaxant to help<br />

minimise the appearance of wrinkles,<br />

nor a fi lling substance to add volume<br />

to the tissues,” explains Dr Al-Taiff.<br />

“Rather, it is an autologous treatment<br />

that uses your own blood plasma to<br />

improve the appearance of ageing.”<br />

First, the practitioner will take a<br />

sample of your blood before it is<br />

placed in a centrifuge which separates<br />

different components in the blood.<br />

What’s left is high-quality platelet<br />

rich plasma, monocytes (a type of<br />

white blood cell) and other powerful<br />

regenerative nutrients. “This PRP<br />

will be re-injected into the tissue<br />

area of concern and acts gradually to<br />

regenerate it from within,” he says.<br />

“The EmCyte system’s results and<br />

the success rate are highly remarkable<br />
