PLATELET MESOTHERAPY: A WELL-KNOWN SCIENCE, INNOVATIVE APPLICATION FOR HAIR LOSS
Nowadays, various facial treatments incorporate the use of plasma for skin rejuvenation and addressing hyperpigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, and overall skin quality. It has also made its way in hair solutions with treating thinning hair and/or hair loss.
At Clinique de Paris, we do platelet mesotherapy treatments for the face and scalp. Platelet Mesotherapy (PMT) for the face can improve skin texture and post-inflammatory pigmentation. This is best for people who want to achieve a more even skin tone, reduce the appearance of pores and improve acne scars.
Patients have shared that their skin feels smoother and plumper with a healthy glow. When used to treat hair loss, it helps improve circulation and promote hair growth which results in reducing hair fall and giving the appearance of fuller hair density.
How does plasma cell regeneration work for the hair and skin?
“The answer is growth factors, which are naturally present on platelets”, says Dr. Rafael Fortus, Medical Director at Clinique de Paris. “Whenever the skin is cut or grazed, it's these same growth factors that naturally bind the skin and lay down new collagen. By isolating and concentrating plasma, then applying it to the area of concern, we harness the body’s natural growth for better quality skin, collagen, hair growth (where there are roots), and even circulation”.
The treatment can be applied to any stage of hair loss; by stimulating the roots, skin and circulation the strands become thicker and healthier over time, and can even reawaken dormant follicles.
Even better, this treatment is done in only 45 minutes! Read more about the lunch break treatment to stop hair loss.
What is Platelet Mesotherapy and how does it work?
Platelet Mesotherapy uses a unique and patented mesotherapy device that allows for even distribution of PRP on the area with no discomfort. It starts by extracting a blood sample that will be placed in a centrifuge to separate the PRP from the red and white blood cells. The PRP is a golden liquid that will be taken from the sample and be injected onto the treatment area.
The importance of clean therapies
A primary benefit of platelet mesotherapy is that it’s 100% clean and pure. “Plasma naturally includes the growth factors for skin, collagen, hair and even blood vessels”, says Dr Rafael, Medical Director at Clinique de Paris. “It also naturally includes exosomes, which are small proteins that signal growth, without having to harvest them from other humans or species- educating the public about this difference is important”.
Isolating pure plasma with platelets, and applying it with the mesotherapy device eliminates the concern for allergy or contamination. Plasma for the hair and scalp is therefore safe and clean for those seeking natural therapies, including breastfeeding women.
The perfect ‘lunchtime procedure’, with minimal downtime.
The plasma mesotherapy sessions take about 45-60 minutes, with no bruising, redness or downtime.
With the use of the mesotherapy device, the treatment is virtually painless. Depending on the patient’s pain threshold, it can rate as low as 2/10 on the pain scale. Take note, that there may be naturally sensitive areas that could cause a slight discomfort.
PMT is a minimally invasive treatment that is safe and 100% natural which eliminates the risk of foreign matter and body rejection. Some side effects include redness, minimal bleeding and bruising, which is normal and generally goes away in about 24 hours.
Initial PMT sessions are recommended to be done in 3 consecutive monthly sessions followed by a treatment on the 6th, 9th and 12th month totalling 6 sessions in the first year. For maintenance, treatment can be done 3-4 times a year to continue seeing optimum results.
PMT can be combined with other hair loss medications and therapies such as topical droppers and DHI (Direct Hair Transplant).
Transformative Results
Plasma facials cause uplifting, and tightening of the skin which can be felt almost immediately, and lasts several weeks to months. For the hair, several sessions are required to boost the hair, which takes 4-6 sessions for optimal results.
One of our beloved Hair Heroes, Daiana Menezes swears by our PMT treatments. Daiana treats both her face and scalp and has seen significant results. She has noticed that her hair is thicker and has a fuller look while her face is constantly complimented by her peers in the entertainment industry with its smooth appearance which she says happens whenever she gets the treatments done quarterly.
What’s the value of Plasma Mesotherapy?
Plasma treatments overseas can fetch up to US$800 to $1000 for a single treatment, which often still involves a direct syringe method. In the Philippines, the cost is much more affordable, and the application is much more comfortable.
Here at Clinique de Paris, we have several packages for Platelet Mesotherapy treatments. For optimum results, we recommend patients to avail the six session package at Php88,000, but there are packages of three sessions at P48,000 and single sessions priced at Php18,000.
