    Hair Restoration Solution: Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

    Monthly Archives: December 2014

    Hair Restoration Solution: Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

    Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

    Thinning hair and baldness are widespread problems for both men and women. However, innovations in the area of hair restoration techniques have led to the development of a few cutting edge solutions that can address the problem effectively. One of the key treatments that is growing in popularity is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) hair restoration therapy.
    The Modern Body Contouring and Laser Center or MBody is a state of the art aesthetic enhancement practice that provides latest non-invasive solutions as well as consultations for plastic surgery. MBody is led by board certified plastic surgeons Dr. Burton Sundin and Dr. Reps Sundin. The practice receives patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond and surrounding communities.
    ACell + PRP Injections vs Hair Transplant

    What is PRP?

    Platelet Rich Plasma or PRP is a unique hair restoration technique that promotes speedy hair growth. The technique is gaining quick popularity following its adoption by celebrities and sportspersons. PRP treatment is designed to provide a patient of hair loss with growth factors from their platelets.
    These growth factors can stimulate the growth of new hair and reduce the loss of hair. The concentrated plasma is injected directly into the patient’s scalp, and can be used equally effectively for both men and women. Hair restoration experts believe that the visual results with PRP procedure have been very encouraging.

    PRP Preparation and Usage

    MBody laser center is committed to providing the best in class non-invasive solutions as well as plastic surgery consultations for its patients in Richmond, Tysons Corner, Northern Virginia (serving those in and around Falls Church, Loudoun County, McLean VA and Washington DC), and nearby communities. During the initial consultation for PRP hair restoration, the experts will explain all aspects of the procedure to help the patient make an informed choice.
    For the purpose of hair restoration, the PRP will be autologous, which means, it will be obtained from the patient’s own blood. The patient’s blood is spun in a centrifuge, which will separate liquid components from solids. Platelet activators such as thrombin, calcium chloride, and collagen may be added. The separated solid component of the blood is PRP. The PRP is then reintroduced into the targeted area of hair loss through injections. It can also be sprayed during or after a hair transplant.
    The injections may be scheduled at intervals of three to nine months to stimulate hair growth. Visible improvements will be noticeable in the first two to six months. The treatments may have to be continued periodically to maintain the improvements.

    Action Mechanism of PRP

    The absorption of oxygen from the healthy tissue allows the hair follicles to survive. Researchers studying the effects of PRP for hair restoration believe that when platelets and white blood cells are introduced through PRP, it can support the naturally occurring wound healing process of the body.
    Researchers also suggest that PRP can be used not only to stimulate the growth of follicles, but even to prevent hair loss. However, the research in the area of the effectiveness of PRP for hair loss is still not at a conclusive stage.

    MBody First in Northern Virginia to Offer Breakthrough FDA-Cleared Non-invasive UltraShape System

    MBody First in Vienna, Virginia to Offer Breakthrough FDA-Cleared Non-invasive UltraShape System

    Non Invasive | Fat Reduction | Anti Aging | Skin Care | Northern VirginaModern Body Contouring & Laser Center or MBody is a state of the art medical spa providing latest and most advanced non-invasive solutions for fat reduction, anti-aging, skin care, and aesthetics. The med spa is led by well-known and experienced Dr. Burton M. Sundin and Dr. Reps B. Sundin. The distinguishing feature of MBody is that it operates as a professional practice where the patients are evaluated by a board certified plastic surgeon. This allows the patients with an opportunity to explore various treatment options in non-invasive as well as cosmetic and plastic surgery procedures.
    MBody is committed to providing new and innovative non-surgical techniques and technologies to achieve the best possible outcomes for the patients. One of the cutting edge technologies that promises to provide new breakthroughs in non-invasive fat reduction, called UltraShape, has been introduced first at MBody. Patients in Northern Virginia, Vienna, Mclean, Loudon, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Washington DC and surrounding communities have an opportunity to receive Ultrashape and other procedures at the medical spa.

    Pioneering Treatment

    UltraShape System is a treatment that has been FDA cleared for fat cell destruction. MBody is the first medical spa in Northern Virginia to have introduced this innovative and non-invasive procedure. Dr. Burton Sundin and Dr. Rep Sundin continually evaluate new developments in the arena of non-surgical aesthetic technologies in order to identify the most effective and advanced solutions for their patients.
    Once they are completely satisfied with the proven safety and effectiveness of a technology, they would be keen to be among the early adopters. This ensures a privileged edge to their patients, who are assured of receiving state of the art treatments at the MBody Laser Center and med spa.

    Unique Feature

    The UltraShape System differentiates itself from other non-surgical fat reduction technologies. It is the first and only non-invasive fat reduction treatment that employs pulsed focused ultrasound technique. With this technique, it is possible to cause the reduction of unwanted fat cells immediately.
    Measurable results can be achieved in as little as two weeks with this treatment. When the energy is delivered in pulses instead of a single continuous stream, it helps achieve results in a relatively less painful manner compared to various other techniques. The lumps, bumps, and soreness that may be associated with other non-invasive fat reduction procedures is avoided with this technology.

    How does it work?

    The UltraShape System works by delivering waves of pulsed focused ultrasonic energy in a closely targeted area where the patient desires to reduce fat deposits. The waves converge in a confined area to achieve optimal impact without affecting the surrounding healthy tissue, muscles, and nerves. The fat cells disintegrated with this process will get removed from the body in a natural way as early as two weeks following the treatment.

    Efficiency

    UltraShape treatment can be completed in less than an hour. It does not involve any downtime, and the patient can simply return to their regular activities or go back to work. It is one of the most efficient and swiftest solutions available for fat reduction.

    UltraShape Selective Fat Cell Reduction

    UltraShape Selective Fat Cell Reduction

    Ultrashape | Body Contouring | Non Invasive | Northern VirginiaExcess fat accumulation is a common aesthetic problem today for both women and men. Modern Body Contouring and Laser Center is equipped to provide some of the latest and most effective non-invasive solutions to reduce unwanted fats. One of the cutting edge procedures available at the medical spa is UltraShape. This FDA cleared fat reduction procedure makes use of ultrasound technology to deliver targeted heat energy to localized fat deposits in areas such as abdomen, flanks, hips, and thighs. 
    UltraShape treatment gets rid of many of the unwanted fat cells through an entirely non-surgical procedure. MBody med spa may recommend this procedure for patients who are bothered by stubborn fat pockets, but do not want to undergo a plastic surgery procedure. Patients in Richmond, Tysons Corner (Vienna), Northern Virginia, and surrounding communities have an opportunity to receive this treatment at MBody.

    How does UltraShape Work?

    UltraShape is an innovative procedure requiring just three treatment sessions of one hour each to provide marked fat reduction in the abdomen, flanks, hips, and thighs. The non-invasive system is designed to focus ultrasound energy on the targeted localized areas of the body.
    The energy penetrates into the deeper layers to disrupt the stubborn fat cells. The body will process these disintegrated cells, which will gradually get removed from the body in a natural way. Results with UltraShape are more natural looking and long lasting. The procedure is entirely painless, and involves no downtime.
    UltraShape holds the unique distinction of being the first and only FDA cleared non-surgical body shaping system that employs pulsed, focused ultrasound to mechanically and selectively disintegrate fat cells at a targeted focal point in the subcutaneous fat tissue. The procedure causes no damage to the healthy surrounding skin, blood vessels, connective tissue or nerves. Measurable results will appear in a natural way in about two weeks.

    Suitable Candidates

    Modern Body Contouring and Laser Center will carefully evaluate a candidate before recommending UltraShape treatment. The medical spa receives paitients from Richmond, Tysons Corner (Vienna), Northern Virginia, and other areas for fat reduction procedures. The treatment may be well-suited for men or women who are unable to achieve significant fat reduction in specific areas of the body through diet or exercise.
    People who are busy at the workplace or with family responsibilities may be sterling candidates for this procedure because UltraShape can be performed quickly at the med spa facility, and does not involve any recovery period. The procedure avoids all the potential risks and side effects that are typically associated with a surgery.

    Proven Results

    UltraShape is clinically proven to be safe and effective. More than 15 peer reviewed papers have been published, and over 300,000 UltraShape treatments have been performed around the world. Patient satisfaction rate is as high as 94 percent with this treatment.
    Independent clinical studies involving over 850 patients have been conducted to determine the safety profile of this treatment. The procedure is based on a natural fat clearance process through which the cell debris and triglycerides from the destroyed fat cells exit the body naturally, and cause no harm.

    What is Botox?

    Botox | Injectables | Crows Feet | Northern Virginia | Tysons Corner VAModern Body Contouring and Laser Center provides a wide range of non-invasive aesthetic solutions, including Botox injectable treatment. Among a variety of non-surgical anti-aging treatments, Botox continues to be one of the most popular solutions worldwide. The treatment was approved in 2002 by the FDA for the reduction of frown lines from the face.
    Since then it has been widely used by medical spa treatment providers with highly safe and satisfactory results. It is, however, important that Botox treatment should be received only at a qualified and reputed med spa to ensure desired outcomes. Patients in Richmond, Tysons Corner, Northern Virginia, and surrounding communities have an opportunity to receive Botox injections at MBody.

    How does it work?

    Botox is produced from botulinum toxin, which is recognized as a highly powerful biological substance. Controlled volumes of this toxin are used in a Botox injectable to reduce the wrinkles and lines from the face. The treatment is designed to cause the overactive wrinkle-forming muscle on the face to relax, which allows the wrinkle to fade away temporarily. Very fine needles are used to inject the treatment directly into the targeted muscle.
    The effect of Botox treatment can last for about three to six months till the muscle remains in a relaxed condition. Botox is also used for the reduction of crow’s feet around the eyes, lip enhancement and reduction of other facial lines and wrinkles. Modern Body Contouring and Laser Center is a state of the art medical spa providing Botox and other non-invasive treatments to patients in Richmond, Tysons Corner, Northern Virginia, and surrounding communities.

    Advantages

    Botox treatment entirely avoids the need for any cuts or incisions, and achieves very significant anti-aging results for the face. Patients who are keen to avoid the typical risks or side effects that are associated with a surgical procedure may consider Botox as an effective non-surgical alternative. The success rate of the procedure is very high, scarring is non-existent, and results are highly desirable as long as the treatment is performed by an expert at a reputed med spa.
    Botox treatment is largely free of pain and discomfort. The treatment provider will make use of a topical local anesthetic to keep the patient comfortable through the treatment. Affordability is another key benefit, particularly for people who are not keen to spend a substantial amount on an elective procedure that is not covered by health insurance.
    Busy moms and working people prefer Botox treatment the most because of its obvious advantages. A single treatment session of Botox can be completed in less than one hour. No downtime is involved in most cases, and the patient is usually able to return to their everyday routine almost immediately. Some working people, in fact, make a Botox appointment during the lunch hour, and go back to work after receiving the treatment.

    FDA Approval for Crow’s Feet

    Botox received another boost when the treatment was approved by the FDA in 2013 for cosmetic reduction of crow’s feet around the eyes. More people now feel encouraged to take advantage of the benefits of Botox as a safe and conservative anti-aging procedure.
