If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then our regenerative Facial or Facelift is for you!
Dr. Otaigbe understands that cosmetic surgery can remove excess skin and make the person appear younger. However, a surgical facelift can be more than what’s needed for some people (especially when loss of shape without extra skin is the main problem). We at Radiant Reflections Weight Loss Clinic & Medspa in Hattiesburg strive to give women their desired aesthetic results without taking drastic measures.
What is the regenerative Facelift?
We use a concentrated portion of your very own blood that is bursting with healing properties and growth factors. This facelift became an extraordinary sensation the moment that a celebrity posted a photo of their face covered in their own blood in order to rejuvenate their skin. This face lift is a procedure that is non-surgical and non-toxic. Dr. Otaigbe at Radiant Radiant Reflections Weight Loss Clinic & Medspa in Hattiesburg has been trained by the pioneer of this procedure to properly and effectively execute this cutting edge, minimally-invasive technique. The Facelifts consists of Dr. Otaigbe re-injecting the platelet rich plasma found in the patient’s blood into their face. The platelets in the plasma stimulate the growth of collagen cells and tighten soft tissues in the face that might have lost their elasticity due to endless factors including gravity or aging. The effects of this platelet rich plasma can have incredible effects without the addition of any toxins or chemicals in the skin, such as those used in other procedures. It is a true medical advancement to have found a way to perform a facelift without surgery.
