Contrary to popular belief, your skin begins reducing its collagen production as early as your 20s! The perfect solution, Derma PRP, is a new injectable offered at SkinBody Memphis that is safe, effective, and offers lasting effects for healthy, glowing skin.
SkinBody Memphis is a highly trusted medical spa in the heart of East Memphis that offers an array of tailored aesthetic and wellness treatments administered by only the best in the field. SkinBody Memphis owner Tomi Beckemeyer and Clinic Director Shannon Anzivino, FNP-C, recently met with us to address injectable misconceptions.
FILLER FEAR: If you get filler, you will look overdone.
FILLER FACT: When filler is done correctly, it is undetectable and natural looking. Overdone or poorly placed filler is the filler that people notice.
FILLER FEAR: Fillers are essentially putting toxins in your body.
FILLER FACT: All fillers on the market must be FDA-approved. Classic fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, which the body produces naturally and can be found in many moisturizers. However, Derma PRP is slightly different because it is autologous, meaning it’s made from the cells in your own body. The team pulls a sample of your blood and spins it down to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the red blood cells. Then, they heat up the plasma, which turns it into a gel.
FILLER FEAR: Filler requires a lot of maintenance.
FILLER FACT: Because of its gel-like consistency, Derma PRP lingers in the skin and only needs to be done every six to eight months, providing volume and improving the skin’s texture immensely.
FILLER FEAR: The filler will stay in you forever after it’s injected.
FILLER FACT: Certain fillers may wander around when placed in dynamic areas such as under the eyes or around the mouth. Instead, SkinBody injectors may recommend Derma PRP, which is more naturally absorbed and can be utilized in any area of the body.
FILLER FEAR: The filler will move around after it’s injected.
FILLER FACT: Certain fillers may wander around if placed in areas such as under the eyes, which is why SkinBody estheticians avoid placing hyaluronic acid there. Instead, they may suggest Derma PRP, which is more naturally absorbed and can be applied to any area of the body.
FILLER FEAR: Getting injectables is painful.
FILLER FACT: SkinBody Memphis applies a topical numbing cream first, so clients will only feel a bit of pressure, but no pain.
FILLER FEAR: If you get filler, you will develop a ‘pillow face.’
FILLER FACT: Pillow face is a new phenomenon seen prevalently in Hollywood due to an over-saturation of fillers. It’s about having a conservative injector who cares about you and is willing to tell you the truth.
