New at PHI - InnoPen
Unfortunately, there are so many factors working against your skin and your best complexion ever. Unhealthy food choices, stress, pollution, allergies, dust, bad makeup and even skincare products you are willingly placing on your skin all contribute to unfortunate skin conditions and can accelerate the aging process. At PHI, we have done the work and offer some really great products and modern treatments that will help you with uneven skin tone, age spots, wrinkles, acne marks and fine lines. Keeping your skin vibrant, young and fresh can be hard work and sometimes a little out of this world. By out of this world we mean, have you ever thought of trying a skin treatment that uses your own blood? Well science and skincare go hand in hand so trust us, this one WORKS!
PRP has become a highly sought-after non-surgical procedure for facial and skin rejuvenation. PRP therapy is a treatment, which uses your own blood platelets to stimulate new cell growth, helping to improve your complexion, skin texture and to restore lost facial volume.
Your blood is essentially made up of four components; red blood cells, white blood cells, plasma and the platelets. We take your blood and spin it in a centrifuge, which enables the separation of the blood cells from your plasma and platelets. This is then re-injected into the skin to stimulate collagen and new skin cells. PRP harnesses the beneficial functions of the patient’s own platelets and therefore there is no risk of allergy or rejection of the treatment.
And now we are excited to amp up our PRP treatments with the new InnoPen. The InnoPen is a microneedling device, which utilizes stamp technology that allows for controlled microchannels with no unnecessary damage to the skin surface. Stamp microneedling works wonders for various skin conditions such as aging (wrinkles, stretching), scarring (acne, surgical), hyper-pigmentation and hair loss.
This new Microneedling technology uses very fine, sterile needles to puncture the skin and create micro-channels deep into the dermis in order to stimulate your body’s own reaction and healing. When your body is in healing mode it produces more and more elastin and collagen, both being essential for healthy, supple, glowing skin. Now when the InnoPen is used in conjunctions with PRP, your own platelets further stimulate collagen and elastin growth, so it's essentially a "turbo charged" treatment. It's especially good for patients whose collagen has been weakened by age or the environment.
The Innopen gently pushes the plasma into the dermal layer of your skin to assist in the skin rejuvenation process, allowing for greater penetration and increasing overall efficacy of the active ingredients. Essentially you are utilizing your body’s own healing ability to stimulate skin recovery and smoothing. The results speak for themselves.
