Selphyl – Ultrapure PRFMLiquid Gold
The “Vampire Facelift”
What is Selphyl?
Selphyl is an FDA approved procedure that uses your own blood platelets to fill wrinkles and plump the skin.
How is the procedure done?
During a short office visit (30 minutes), a small amount of your own blood is drawn into a tube. The tube is then spun in a centrifuge separating the Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) from other elements of the blood. The tube of PRP is then transferred into a second tube through a safe, closed system which creates Platelet-rich Fibrin Matrix (PRFM). Your PRFM is then injected into the treatment areas recommended by the physician.
When will I see results?
You’ll see results right away, which will subside over a couple days. Gradual results will become apparent 4 to 6 weeks post-treatment as your own collagen and tissue regenerates.
Where can I use Selphyl?
Throughout your entire face, hands and pitted scars on your body.
How long does it last?
Selphyl lasts anywhere from 12-24 months
Are there side effects?
Each patient is different and some may experience some bruising and a little bit of swelling. Some experience itching and redness at the injection sight, but these side effects only last one to two days.
Since the blood is taken from your own body rejection or allergic reactions is extremely rare.
Is there downtime?
There is no downtime, however if you feel insecure about possible bruising or swelling your Dr may suggest to do it before the start of a weekend.
Is it Safe?
The reproducible 3-step system contains no animal or foreign components, so there is no risk of an allergic or adverse reaction.
