Cellular regeneration through biostimulation (CRB) is an innovative treatment that leverages the natural healing properties of a patient’s own blood to rejuvenate the skin. This process begins by drawing a small amount of blood from the patient, which is then placed in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The PRP, rich in growth factors and healing properties, is then carefully injected into the skin. This serum, derived entirely from the patient’s own plasma, is designed to enhance collagen production, stimulate the growth of new skin cells, and improve the overall texture of the skin. As a result, CRB provides a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance, harnessing the body’s natural ability to heal and regenerate.

Cellular regeneration through biostimulation (CRB) is a sophisticated cosmetic procedure that begins with drawing a small sample of the patient’s blood. The blood is then processed using a centrifuge machine, a device that spins at high speeds to separate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from the other blood components. The isolated PRP is transformed into a powerful serum, rich in growth factors and proteins. This serum is subsequently injected into the targeted treatment area using a microneedling technique, which involves creating tiny, controlled punctures in the skin. The microneedling facilitates deeper penetration of the PRP, enhancing its efficacy.
This process stimulates collagen production and promotes the growth of new skin cells, resulting in firmer, smoother skin. The treatment is particularly effective in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leading to a more youthful and revitalized complexion.
CRB can be used on the face, including the eyelids, neck, and chest. It can also be used on the scalp to treat alopecia and hair loss.
You’ll meet with one of our expert technicians to examine your skin condition and discuss your expectations and goals. They will then create a personalized treatment plan to help you best achieve them.
We take photos of the treatment area to add to your patient profile, examining your skin’s current condition. We use these photos to track your treatment progress and ensure that it’s working as expected.
We’ll review the consent forms with you and answer any questions you may have about the CRB treatment before proceeding with the blood draw and injection.
Your CRB treatment begins with the technician drawing a small amount of your blood. This blood sample is then placed into a centrifuge, a machine that spins at high speed to separate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from the rest of the blood components.
While the centrifuge is working, the technician will thoroughly clean and disinfect your skin, ensuring a sterile environment for the microneedling procedure.
Once the PRP is ready, it is carefully injected into the treatment area using a microneedling technique. This process involves creating tiny punctures in the skin to allow the plasma serum to penetrate deeply, promoting healing and rejuvenation. The entire session typically lasts between 30 and 45 minutes, providing an efficient yet effective treatment for skin revitalization.
