Plasmolifting (PLAZMOLIFT) is the latest rejuvenation method in which the body's own plasma is injected into the conjunctiva of the skin.
This rejuvenation method gives the skin a fresher appearance, wrinkles are smoothed and minor blemishes are eliminated. Plasmolifting is performed by both men and women, currently this procedure is one of the most effective for looking younger and more beautiful.
Plasmolifting: advantages and disadvantages of the method
The essence of plasmolifting is that in order to rejuvenate a person, their own plasma is injected into their dermis. Since there are platelets in the blood, which are responsible for skin regeneration, only the part of the plasma that contains the most useful substances is used for injections.
The plasmolifting technique was invented in Japan a few decades ago, but it is becoming more perfect and safer every day and is already used all over the world. Thanks to this technique, many people have been able to get rid of dry skin, wrinkles, and other cosmetic problems that prevented them from living and looking beautiful.
The advantages of plasma lifting over other lifting methods are as follows:
- Efficiency. The result will already be noticeable after the first procedure: The skin becomes firmer, wrinkles (even deep ones and facial expressions) become less noticeable. It also slows down the aging process of the skin.
- Painlessness. The plasma injection will hurt no more than any other injection (into a vein or finger) while anesthesia is being used during the injection;
- Safety. A blood rejection is completely ruled out, as our own plasma is used here and no rehabilitation phase is required after the procedure;
- There are practically no contraindications;
- Does not cause an allergic reaction.
How is the plasmolifting procedure performed:
- First, you need to prepare to do a biochemical blood test. The day before, you should not eat fatty or fried foods, and also exclude foods with preservatives.
- Take a blood test for biochemistry and collect useful plasma in a special test tube.
- After the blood is divided into poor, rich plasma and erythrocytes according to useful substances, the plasma that is most saturated with useful properties is selected. This entire process takes no more than 15-20 minutes;
- Immediately after the separation of the rich plasma, an injection is made, under the action of which the production of collagen and hyaluronic acid occurs, which tightens the skin and gives it a more attractive appearance.
- The entire process, including blood collection and sorting, takes about an hour.
Plasmolifting at home cannot be done, since this procedure requires special expensive equipment and, most importantly, good knowledge of the medical field.
Disadvantages of plasma lifting:
- The high cost of the procedure;
- Not suitable for people who are afraid of seeing blood.
The plasma lifting procedure can be carried out on the following parts of the body: around the eyes, scalp, face, neck, décolleté.
- Plasmolifting the face helps get rid of the signs of aging and sagging, and improves blood circulation. In face plasmolifting, the injection is injected into the exact area of the skin that needs rejuvenation.
- The plasmolifting of the hair improves the blood flow to the scalp, which prevents the hair from falling out and gives it a natural shine and softness. Sometimes there may be mild pain with such a procedure, but it is quite rare.
- Plasmolifting with pigmentation perfectly relieves the skin of age spots, while after the first session they become lighter and more invisible. This is because the enriched plasma affects the active production of melanin in the skin.
- Plasmolifting for acne is effective even when inflammation and acne are in the acute stage. Beneficial substances effectively eliminate the causes of acne, the complexion becomes better and skin problems disappear.
- Plasmolifting for alopecia effectively affects the hair follicles, making the hair stronger, improving blood circulation and reducing hair loss.
- Plasmolifting for rosacea allows you to get rid of major acne by acting on harmful subcutaneous buildups with the help of the beneficial substances contained in plasma.
- Plasmolifting for psoriasis is one of the most effective methods of fighting this disease, which allows you to remove painful peelings and spots, and most importantly, get rid of the original source of this disease.
Plasmolifting during pregnancy and breastfeeding is not contraindicated, but since the effects of this procedure on the child have not yet been studied, it is still worth avoiding this procedure.
Rehabilitation after plasma lifting is practically unnecessary as this rejuvenation method involves internal injections. Experts advise eating healthier vegetables and fruits after plasma lifting, but there are no specific recommendations.
