Revitalize Your Skin And Hair with Natural Growth Factor Injections in Long Island, NY
Platelet-Rich Plasma Hair Treatment In Long Island, NY
Natural growth factor injection is an aesthetic procedure that involves injecting a patient’s platelets and plasma into areas of the skin to help promote healing and rejuvenation. The injection of the platelets and plasma can help stimulate collagen production, reduce wrinkles and fine lines, and improve skin tone and texture. Natural growth factor injections have been used to treat areas of the face, hands, and neck to enhance the appearance of aging skin.
The process of natural growth factor injections incorporates two main components: platelets and plasma. Platelets are a type of cell that is instrumental in healing in the body, as they contain growth factors that can stimulate tissue regeneration and cell reproduction. To create a natural growth factor injection, a blood sample is taken from the patient and placed in a centrifuge, which quickly spins the sample, differentiating the platelets from the other components of the blood and concentrating them within the plasma.
