Enhancement<br />
well beyond skin rejuvenation (it<br />
has its origins in treating sports<br />
injuries in elite athletes). The<br />
tissue-repairing effects and the growth<br />
factors released by PRP regenerate<br />
tissue like no other.<br />
Regen PRP treatments work on<br />
all three layers of the skin –<br />
epidermal, dermal and subdermal –<br />
so skin appears fresher and younger<br />
with improved quality and texture.<br />
The treatment is backed by a<br />
series of clinical studies that have<br />
shown significant improvement in<br />
skin sagging/firmness, as well as a<br />
plumpness and radiance to the skin.<br />
Regen PRP can work in several<br />
ways, depending on the application<br />
and the target area (it has an<br />
extremely widespread application<br />
and is used for everything from skin<br />
anti-ageing to hair restoration, to<br />
name just a couple).<br />
“In my clinic I mainly use Regen<br />
PRP for overall skin rejuvenation<br />
and more specifically for the<br />
treatment of acne and acne scars.<br />
Regen PRP also appears to have a<br />
skin lightening effect on a lot of my<br />
patients,” says Dr Wu.<br />
“The feedback from my patients has<br />
been excellent, with some claiming<br />
that it is the best treatment they have<br />
ever had for their skin.”<br />
Improvement is usually noticed<br />
in about three weeks, with a series<br />
of two to three treatments generally<br />
required for optimal results.<br />
“Depending on what we are looking<br />
to improve, I suggest repeating the<br />
treatment anywhere between one to<br />
six months. The regeneration and<br />
remodelling of skin tissue actually<br />
continues to improve for up to 12<br />
months after each session.”<br />
So what does the procedure<br />
involve? Generally two small vials<br />
of blood taken, which is placed in a<br />
specialised Regen PRP centrifuge that<br />
separates the platelets from the blood.<br />
This is then put in a syringe and reinjected<br />
into the target areas, little by<br />
little, using a very thin needle.<br />
The whole process is quite quick and<br />
typically involves minimal discomfort.<br />
Any swelling will usually subside<br />
overnight and any bruising disappears<br />
after a few days.<br />
“In my opinion, there are no<br />
other treatment options that match<br />
Regen PRP,” says Dr Wu. “I definitely<br />
think regenerative medicine such<br />
as Regen PRP will be the future of<br />
rejuvenation and will replace a lot<br />
of cosmetic injections we perform<br />
currently.” CBM<br />
