EZ Gel Autologous BioStimulating Gel
Regenerative Medicine is described as interventions that harness the power of the human body to repair damaged or aging tissue. By enlisting science and technology aesthetic practitioners can now rejuvenate the skin without invasive procedures, synthetic fillers, chemical additives and abrasives. Now we can use safe radio waves and microneedling, Stem Cells and Peptide Growth factors to substitute for traditional peels, fillers and other harsh treatments.
Autologous Therapy is the engineering of tissue regeneration by utilizing the cells in the bloodstream. When human blood is centrifuged it will separate and yield a compound called Platelet Rich Fibrin or PRF. PRF consists of Growth Factors and Stem Cell precursors that, when released, will slowly release into the target adjacent tissue. If PRF is placed under the skin it will promote the new production of Collagen, Elastin and Hyalorinic acid which will improve skin texture and tone. This translates clinically to reduce wrinkles, plump thin skin, improve skin texture and restore a youthful skin tone.
The EZ Gel PRF procedure is performed in the office and takes approximately 45 minutes. It can be done any time of the year, has very little discomfort and a down time between 24 and 48 hours.
Selphyl: A Safer Solution For Patients Concerned About Allergic Reactions
Selphyl is an all-natural filler that is made from the patient's own platelets.
Platelets contain numerous growth factors that stimulate collagen production, promote improved circulation, and recruit stem cells. The platelets provide a soft, subtle, and immediate volumizing effect as the growth factors begin to stimulate new collagen production over a six- to eight-week period.
Results are seen two to three months following treatment and can last up to three years. Dr. Turk has found Selphyl to be particularly effective around the eyes where delicate, thin skin makes camouflaging other fillers extremely difficult. It can refine areas around the eyes, fill hollowness, improve skin texture, and brighten dark circles. Around the mouth, this unique treatment helps smooth out "smoker's lines." Dr. Turk also uses Selphyl to treat shallow depressions due to scarring or skin atrophy.
