- 4 These trending treatments of 2019 are all similar in one way. They focus on what the body does naturally instead of using synthetic alternatives. What better source of rejuvenation can you ask for?
Pump up the volume with PRP Injections
The Process:
You’ll receive a blood draw at our office and then we extract the PRP (platelet rich plasma) from the vial of blood in a centrifuge machine. After this, the PRP is put in syringes that are used to inject your face.
Why it works:
PRP is full of cell-rich properties that come from your blood. Its powerful ability to promote collagen growth makes this injection the gift that keeps on giving. Injecting problem areas, (wrinkles, hollows, dull skin) with a fresh blood supply promotes healing and a healthy glow that gets better over time.
What it costs:
$850-$1,000
Downtime:
None.
Reset the clock: Facial Fat Grafting
The Process:
First, you’ll have a mini-liposuction procedure to gather fat from an unwanted area. Then the fat is cleaned, filtered into three different sizes and injected into the face.
Why it works:
Much like PRP, fat cells carry properties that stimulate rapid collagen growth as no other treatment can. You are quite literally rewinding the hands of time on facial aging by getting fat injections via Dr. Cohen’s ITR ² method. These injections both volumize the face and restimulate the process of youthful cell regeneration. Think of your face as a home, when it gets new flooring (tissue) it becomes instantly renewed.
Downtime:
Three days to a week.
Define and Sculpt Using Kybella
The Process:
The injector will mark out the fat pocket that needs decreasing and inject the area with a very thin needle multiple times and in various locations to target the fat.
Why it works:
Kybella mimics a naturally occurring stomach acid that breaks down fat. This treatment is most commonly used in the pesky double-chin area but aesthetic injectors are experimenting with places like inner thighs, abdomen, and buccal space and seeing fantastic results after repeat treatments.
What it costs:
$600 a vial
Downtime:
Up to 4-6 weeks of swelling in the injected area.
