Laser Epilation
Laser hair removal is a permanent method that removes unwanted hair from the body. The target in the procedure is the melanin pigment, which gives the tissue hair its color. The laser energy released from its source is absorbed by the melanin pigment, converted into heat and destroys the hair follicle.
It is necessary to apply the procedure with repeated sessions. The reason for this is that the hair in the body is in 3 different stages for all regions at the same time. These stages are called growth (anagen), rest (catagen), and shedding (telogen). Laser hair removal only affects the hair during the growth period (anagen). Because only in the hair follicles at this stage, there is melanin pigment at a rate that will ensure the absorption of the laser beam. The rate of hair in the anagen stage at any given time is around 20% and 10% in the body. For this reason, laser hair removal is applied with repeated sessions. Depending on the hair type and skin structure, successful results are obtained after an average of 4-8 sessions of application.

What is PRP?
PRP (platelet rich plasma) is the abbreviated name of the treatment method called the application of plasma enriched with plateletcells to the skin. This application is based on the separation of small amount of blood taken from one person into a special tube and centrifugation process, and the return of the small amount of cell-rich plasma (PRP) obtained by injection to the same person. These cells in the obtained plasma have “growth factors” that are necessary to repair the tissues damaged due to aging and various reasons at our body. The structure, which can repair the skin damage and aging effects in the fastest and most natural way, is also a part of our body, so plasma application has developed as a method of activating this magical power circulating in our veins.
How is PRP applied in practice?
2 or 3 tube of blood is taken from the person to perform the application and cells are separated from the blood at centrifuge device.

This product is applied to the skin by specialists, and the skin rejuvenating feature it shows itself as a bright and vibrant appearance in the application area immediately after application,. Blood is taken into a fully sealed and sterile tube, and there is no risk of transmission of any disease.

A healthy glow appears on the skin immediately after application. It then regresses slightly in this brilliant appearance, but after applying a cure, i.e. 3 or 4 application, the effect of a permanent youth becomes more distinct. This easy and safe application, consisting of 3 cures on average, will have an effective rejuvenating effect long enough to be counted as permanent once it is repeated every 10-12 months. The positive results achieved by other methods continue for a certain period of time, but the positive results obtained by PRP are entirely dependant ıpon the user, and they do not disappear.
