FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS -How Long Does It Last: Results are visible immediately, offering an instant boost to your natural radiance and helps with long term results as it promotes your own collagen over time. -Once I Start, Can I Stop: Derma "natural filler" treatments provide a natural enhancement. Should you decide to discontinue, the effects will gradually fade. It's a choice to maintain that fresh and revitalized look. We always recommend a series of two treatments, 30-45 days apart for best results. -How It Works: Derma "natural filler" treatments involve the use of drawing your blood, putting it through the centrifuge and going through a process that helps thicken your plasma. This helps enhance and refresh your look, restoring lost volume for a smoother and more youthful appearance. There are NO artificial ingredients in this process. -Does It Hurt: We prioritize your comfort. Discomfort during the procedure is minimal, and our experienced team ensures a gentle experience and use of topical numbing cream as needed. -When Should You Start: There's no fixed age; it depends on personal preferences and skin concerns. We recommend considering derma "natural filler" treatments when you desire a subtle enhancement of your natural features. -Side Effects and Downtime: -Temporary side effects may include redness, mild swelling, and possible bruising. Downtime is minimal, allowing you to resume regular activities soon after. -Is it safe? Yes! All PRP Therapy is very safe because cells from the patient’s own blood are used, which means there are no preservatives and no chance of the body rejecting the cells. The primary risks and discomforts are related to the blood draw where there is a slight pinch to insert the needle for collection and there is a potential for bruising at the site.
