Vampire Facial

Dermapen is the industry-leading dermatology device for a microneedling procedure which has the capability to effectively address skin problems such as acne scars, hyperpigmentation, ageing, fine lines and stretch marks. Micro-needling is a procedure suitable for both male and female clients. The dermapen micro-needling treatment is able to achieve skin which is refreshed, tighter, brighter and more even. Dermapen has won hearts of many cosmetic experts around the world, after having proved its efficiency and effectiveness, as well as its versatility.   The Dermapen microneedling pen provides an unparalleled response through the segmented delivery of microneedles, creating micro injuries to the epidermis (outer layer of skin) and dermis (the inner layer of skin). As a result, the micro injuries encourage the body’s innate ability to repair itself. The skin responds to this by naturally producing collagen and elastin to repair itself. The collagen and elastin created by micro-needling work to smooth and firm the skin, plumping out deep lines and improving the indented or red appearance of stretch marks or scars making it a popular acne scar treatment.

Platelet-rich plasma therapy is a form of regenerative medicine that can harness those abilities and amplify the natural growth factors your body uses to heal tissue. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, also known as The Vampire Facelift, harnesses the body’s own healing powers to stimulate new tissue growth, giving your skin a healthy, more youthful appearance. The treatment involves taking a small amount of the patient’s blood and separating plasma out from the rest of the blood, by using a centrifuge to create the platelet rich plasma.   Plasma consists of a clear liquid part of the blood once all other cellular components are removed. It is composed largely of water and proteins, and it provides a medium for red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets to circulate through the body. Platelets, also called thrombocytes, are blood cells that cause blood clots and other necessary growth healing functions. Plasma carries out powerful functions in the body such as fighting diseases, healing and hydration. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses injections of a concentration of a patient’s own platelets to accelerate the healing and regeneration. In this way, PRP injections use each individual patient’s own healing system to improve musculoskeletal problems. PRP injections are prepared by taking anywhere from one to a few tubes of your own blood and running it through a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets. These activated platelets are then injected directly into your injured or diseased body tissue. This releases growth factors that stimulate and increase the number of reparative cells your body produces.   When the PRP is re-injected into the skin, the platelets release growth factors. This promotes healing and stimulates collagen production. Collagen, found naturally in the body, is the foundation of a youthful appearance. During the aging process the body produces less collagen which results in decreased volume, lines and wrinkles. By stimulating collagen production, PRP helps to promote even skin tone, reduces scarring, improves skin texture, making the skin healthy, resilient and hydrated.  BEFORE & AFTER FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What are the benefits of PRP? The clients can benefit from improved skin texture and tone. PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) regenerates collagen which helps reduce wrinkles and lines, improve skin texture around the delicate eye area, improve scarring, tackle blemishes and restore a healthy glow. PRP treats hyperpigmentation, acne scars, plump sagging skin, improves hair health and volume.  What areas can be treated with PRP? Areas that can be treated with PRP include around the eyes, the jaw line, cheeks forehead, nasolabial lines, marionette lines and neck. How many sessions of PRP therapy is required? For best results it is advised to complete the course of 3 treatments of Platelet Rich Plasma therapy at 4-6 weeks intervals.  How long does PRP therapy last? The results of PRP therapy can be expected to last up to 18 months. A one-off treatment, can be expected to last for several months. Who is not a suitable candidate for PRP treatment? Patients with abnormal platelet function, clotting disorders and chronic liver disease are not suitable for PRP therapy. Please remember to disclose your relevant medical history with Nurse Maya during your consultation. Is PRP Therapy painful? Injector Maya will apply a numbing cream prior to treatment to make the process more comfortable. Most clients experience mild discomfort which is the result of the injections.  Is there any downtime? The injection process may cause some bruising, swelling and tenderness which will subside within 24hours. Clients are advised to wear face cream with filters and avoid direct sun exposure.  Is PRP treatment safe? As the platelets are the patients’ own there is no risk of transmissible diseases or allergic reactions. Infection risk is minimized by ensuring sterile technique and equipment. Nurse Maya is a highly trained medical practitioner with a license to practice. 

Mesotherapy is a versatile treatment which can be used to alleviate a wide range of problems. Mesotherapy consists of intradermal injections of microscopic quantities pharmaceuticals, vitamins and minerals into the skin or scalp to help it rejuvenate and repair itself. Mesotherapy can detoxify the body from excess waste, eliminate excess fluids, making the skin firm and toned.   Small amounts of a carefully chosen injectable solution are injected using a series of tiny injections directly to the skin’s mid layer. The ingredients of the injectable solution are chosen according to the patient’s skin needs. It could include pharmaceuticals, vitamins and minerals, hyaluronic acid. The mesotherapy process also stimulates the skin’s production of collagen and new skin cells, as the body’s natural response to the tiny needle insertions.   At Injector Maya clinic we offer mesotherapy to treat cellulite, the specific cocktail of active substancesis injected into the fat layer beneath the skin to break down the fat cells. Other areas, such as the thin skin around the eyes and dark circles can be treated by combining mesotherapy in a course of treatment with other procedures, so as to make the area around the eyes look brighter and younger.   Mesotherapy brings wonderful results for the face and neck.

After the intradermal therapy session, avoid massage, ultrasound and hair removal procedures to the treated areas for at least 24 hours. Avoid applying creams or other products unless after consulting with Injector Maya.   After the session and for a few days, do not expose yourself to the sun and UVA rays to avoid spots corresponding to the micro-lesions produced by the needle. It is good to know that the repair of these micro-lessons involves a slight inflammation that increases the skin’s sensitivity to solar radiation with an increase in pigmentation. Is mesotherapy painful? Pain perception is different in treated skin regions, and it also depends on the individual sensitivity. However, the discomfort is often well-tolerated. The mesotherapy treatment is performed by using a very small needle and is not a particularly uncomfortable process. How long does a mesotherapy session last? Usually, an intradermal therapy session lasts from 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the extent and number of areas to be treated. Are there any contraindications to mesotherapy? An absolute contraindication to mesotherapy is the chances of allergy to the ingredients of the solution to be injected. It should be highlighted that allergic reactivity can develop late, after the treatment period, without any manifestation of sensitivity. So be very specific when talking to your specialist. In the presence of chronic systemic diseases, Injector Maya will evaluate the advisability or not of a therapeutic or aesthetic intradermal treatment. Injector Maya uses only CE approved, medically tested and certified products. What side effects are known? The modest volume of the compound used for each injection causes a tiny swelling in the dermis, destined to disappear in a few hours. At the injection sites local reactions may occur due to the microtrauma caused by the needle, as well as the chemical-physical and biochemical activity of the drug. The client can develop erythema (redness); slight bleeding; bruising or minor bruises; infrequent local infectious complications. These reactions subside naturally in a few days without leaving any marks on the skin.
