Growth Factor Injections

In addition to the Glow Factor Injection we can also incorporate the added benefit of PRP growth factors, this is our Growth Factor Injection.

PRP growth factors improve, grow and strengthen skin. PRP contains 98 different growth factors that activate the multiplication of our collagen producing cells to achieve anti-ageing benefits.

1. Thickening, strengthening and volumising indented and damaged skin from acne scarring – usually the mid cheek area, especially where there has been a loss of volume.
2. Thickening, strengthening and tightening loose, fine skin on many areas of the face or body. Most commonly the fine cheek smile creases (accordion lines), fine creased eyelid skin and the fine skin on the neck.
3. Improving texture, pores and surface complexion. It also enhances the cosmetic surface complexion.

The most common methods for producing growth factors to inject into our skin are either to derive them from our own blood or from our fat.

The most readily available form of growth factors are obtained directly from our blood. This form of growth factors are often termed Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). We extract your own blood, extract the PRP and inject the product directly into the subcutaneous layer of skin.

Numbing cream is applied 20 minutes prior to treatment and left on for 5-10 minutes maximum. The skin is then cleansed and using the injecting devise, the product is injected at a consistent depth (max 1mm).
