Meyer Clinic offers PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Therapy to patients for the face and it can be beneficial to people who have wrinkles, sun damage, or scars. By placing PRP back into the skin, cell proliferation is encouraged. This leads to an increase in elastin and collagen production. As a result, the skin will look tighter, fuller, and smoother. The patient journey includes coming into clinic and having a consultation. Your blood will be taken, and specially spun in a centrifuge which then separates the plasma and platelets. The active part is then be directly injected back into your scalp. This has the potential to re-energise the hair follicles, stimulate new collagen production, tissue regeneration and stimulate the anagen phase i.e., growth phase of hair.
For most patients we typically recommend a course of 3-5 treatments, spaced 4 weeks apart to promote best results. After this course, we then recommend patients have a maintenance treatment every 4-6 months depending on the individual.
At Meyer Clinic – we do support nutrition and functional medicine, so you will have the option of having your bloods checked to secure that you are healthy and ensure the best possible results for you!
Polynucleotides
Polynucleotides are part of our regenerative medicine offering at Meyer Clinic, they form the building blocks for all cellular processes, were originally developed for wound care and have since been developed for use in aesthetic care. They have a potent biostimulator function acting as powerful antioxidants, they can reduce inflammation, reduce hyperpigmentation, improve healing, stimulate collagen 1 and 3 formation, improve micro-circulation, and increase elastin. They can also be used in difficult to treat areas of skin such as under the eyes and top lip.
Exosome Therapy
Exosome Therapy forms part of Meyer Clinic regenerative medicine approach and allows us to support treatment in clinic with a homecare regime.
Exosomes are minuscule particles that are naturally released from cells and contain a mixture of lipids, proteins, amino acids, and peptides, essentially all the building blocks needed for cellular repair and their main function is to enable cell-to-cell communication. Exosomes penetrate the skin easily due to their fatty envelopes and then trigger the regeneration and production of collagen and elastin on each application, also reducing any skin discomfort and reducing inflammation during in-clinic treatment.
