SKINLIFE: WORLD’S PIONEER OF COSMETIC PRP THERAPY SINCE 2008

It is a fact that SKINLIFE has been providing Cosmetic PRP Therapy Since 2008. Medical research shows that doctors with extensive experience provide treatments with greater skill and better outcome. This is why SKINLIFE believes that our experience is an indicator of the level of skills, knowledge, and science behind our Cosmetic PRP Therapy. Our injection services are grounded firmly on in-depth anatomical knowledge and extensive clinical experience. We carefully select appropriate injection depth, location, delivery method, and dose. We strongly believe that our Cosmetic PRP treatment Protocol is one of the best in the world. Every year, many doctors come and learn our Cosmetic PRP Treatment. In fact, our Cosmetic PRP treatment teaching course is an official training program recognized by the provincial licensing authority as their certification requirement.
As one of the first providers of Cosmetic PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Therapy in Canada, SKINLIFE CLINIC has a wealth of experience providing PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) injections for Skin Rejuvenation since 2008. Also known as the “PRP Vampire Face Lift,” Cosmetic PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Therapy has taken a notable presence among celebrities and on social media platforms. While such a spotlight has attracted a generous number of providers to adopt and perform the procedure, the quality of PRP may vary significantly depending on the platelet enrichment technique and the delivery method. SKINLIFE utilizes a specific platelet enrichment protocol to achieve high platelet concentration. In addition, we have carefully designed our protocol to minimize the loss of precious platelets and to preserve platelet’s biochemical integrity. At SKINLIFE Clinic, cosmetic PRP treatments are provided by an experienced injector certified by the provincial licensing authority. SKINLIFE also holds the status of being Galderma Canada’s Top Injector Champion in 2016, 2017, and 2018. For a single injector clinic like SKINLIFE, achieving the top volume status is a remarkable feat on its own merit. Medical research confirms that when doctors and institutions perform procedures more frequently, they do so with greater skill and improved safety. While the case volume is certainly not the only factor of consideration when selecting one’s cosmetic injector, SKINLIFE believes this may be an indicator of the level of skills, knowledge, and artistry behind each injection at our clinic. Our injection services are grounded firmly on in-depth anatomical knowledge and extensive clinical experience.

WHAT IS COSMETIC PRP (PLATELET RICH PLASMA) SKIN REJUVENATION THERAPY?

Cosmetic PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Skin Rejuvenation Therapy is a safe and natural approach to minimally invasive skin rejuvenation, using one’s own growth factors found within the platelets, extracted and intensified from the plasma of the blood. The collagen and elastin newly created as a result of Intradermal PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) injections on areas such as the face, neck, chest and dorsum of hands result in the natural improvement of:

  • Fine wrinkles
  • Skin tone and texture, for tired and dull looking skin
  • Skin elasticity
  • Skin sensitivity
  • Wound healing following other procedures
HOW PRP WORKS

Natural aging causes the loss of collagen and keratin and results in the deterioration of skin elasticity and health. PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) injections work by stimulating production of elastic materials in the skin. Blood is collected and processed in a centrifuge using an advanced extraction technology to harvest PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) with a plasma concentration 10 times higher than found naturally in one’s blood. The PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is then injected intradermally into the skin in the desired treatment area(s) using the Vital Injector 2, a fully computerized automated intradermal injection system for a controlled and even delivery of the PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) to the exact therapeutic depth of the skin with minimal loss of PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma). The direct injections of the PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) into the skin stimulate the fibroblast activity, which results in the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid in the skin.

RESULTS & BENEFITS

Cosmetic PRP skin injection primarily helps with skin elasticity, leading to the reduction of fine wrinkles. Improvement may be visible as early as four weeks following the initial injection. Repeated injections are generally required to sustain the result.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
  • How many treatment sessions do I need?

Most patients notice initial improvement 3-4 weeks following the initial treatment. Additional treatments of a total of 3 to 5 sessions are recommended, the exact number of which varies depending on the skin condition pre-treatment, as well as the intended goal of the treatment plan. Repeat procedures promote the continued production and maintenance of the newly created collagen as a result of the treatment.

  • What is the treatment interval?

On average, the ideal treatment interval between each treatment is 4-6 weeks. Upon completion of the initially recommended treatment plan, subsequent repeat procedures for the maintenance of treatment benefits in the long term can be received every 2-3 months.

  • Is Cosmetic PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) a painful treatment?

Topical anesthetic cream application is offered to minimize discomfort during treatment. SKINLIFE also offers the use of analgesic laughing gas for patients who desire additional relief.

  • Is there any downtime following the Cosmetic PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Injections?

Redness, localized bruising, minor swelling and small scabbing typically resolve in 5-10 days. Cosmetic concealer can be applied 24 hours after each treatment session.
