Plasma

Plasma injections in Centennial
While Plasma has been used for decades in medicine to heal injuries, it is gaining ground in the aesthetics industry. Plasma uses a patient’s own centrifuged blood from which plasma is extracted. The “liquid gold” contains stem cells and growth plasma that when injected back into the skin accelerate the body’s natural production of collagen and elastin. The result is fresher, younger, radiant skin and scar reduction.
At Invigorate Advanced Aesthetics Medical Spa in Centennial, Colorado we use plasma and plasma the next generation of extract which is a fibrin matrix containing plasma cytokines and growth factors. How it is extracted from the blood depends on the speed of the centrifuge, but plasma is excellent hair and skin rejuvenators. For those looking for a needle free hair stimulation method we offer AquaFirmeXS for hair.

Is plasma safe to use?
Patients who have never tried plasma may worry that they are not safe because blood is being used as the main component of the treatment. They may even think scarring can occur at the injection sites. The treatment is very safe because it only uses a patient’s blood and plasma and nobody else’s and is carried out in a sterile fashion.
Other concerns might include seeing bleeding while the plasma is being used in the treatment area especially with microneedling. When used together in the “Vampire Facial” lots of micro-injuries occur to the skin to stimulate the body’s healing and regeneration response and minor bleeding is expected. The procedure can be performed in two ways, through injection after microneedling to offer a more enhanced outcome, or it can be injected under the skin prior to microneedling.
The platelets have blood-clotting properties so plasma actually makes microneedling less bloody. When spread over microneedled skin, it stops the bleeding.
Procedure highlights
