Natural Filler (Bio Filler)
Embrace the Beauty of Natural Aesthetics
Introduction to Natural Filler:
Natural Filler, a cutting-edge aesthetic procedure, uses a patient’s own blood components to create a 100% natural alternative to synthetic fillers. This innovative technique enhances volume, contours, and rejuvenates the skin in various areas including the face, neck, hands, and more.
Procedure Overview:
- Blood Sample: A small sample (15cc-30cc) is drawn, similar to a routine blood test.
- Centrifuge Process: The sample is spun to separate it into layers, including Platelet-Poor-Plasma (PPP) and Platelet-Rich-Fibrin (PRF).
- Bio-Gel Formation: The PPP is heated to form a bio-gel.
- Reconstitution: The bio-gel is combined with PRF to produce the Natural Filler, rich in growth factors and regenerative cells.
Benefits:
- Collagen Production: Stimulates natural collagen for skin repair and rejuvenation.
- Versatility: Suitable for various areas like cheeks, jawline, around the eyes, lips, and more.
- Safety: Minimized risk of side effects, rejection, or allergies due to the autologous nature.
Expected Results:
- Immediate and Progressive: Visible improvements starting 6-8 weeks after treatment, continuing over 6 months.
- Longevity: Results can last several months, depending on factors like age, lifestyle, and skin condition.
