Neurotoxin Treatments
Neurotoxin treatment is a popular non-surgical procedure that involves temporarily paralyzing muscle activity with the injection of botulinum toxin. It is commonly used to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines. Neurotoxin blocks the nerve signals necessary for facial muscles to contract, giving them a smoother, more refreshed appearance. It effectively treats areas such as the forehead, around the eyes, and between the brows.
This treatment is suitable for adults looking to reduce visible signs of aging or prevent the formation of wrinkles. Ideal candidates are those in good health, not pregnant, and without neurological diseases. Results from neurotoxin injections are usually visible within 3 to 5 days, with full effects visible in about two weeks. The outcomes can last anywhere from 3 to 6 months. To maintain results, repeat treatments are recommended. If you’re considering neurotoxin in Wilmington, DE, we invite you to book an appointment with Citidrips to discuss your goals and see how this treatment can benefit you.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
About Platelet-Rich-Plasma
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses injections of a concentration of a patient’s own platelets to accelerate the healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles and joints. In this way, PRP injections use each individual patient’s own healing system to improve musculoskeletal problems.

Harness the Natural Power of Your Body
Platelet-Rich Plasma injections are a process in which your body’s own growth factors, naturally found in your plasma are concentrated to a small volume and injected for a variety of purposes. At Citidrips, we use PRP to assist with hair and skin rejuvenation. Injections are only done by our physician and physician assistant.
PRP Facial Rejuvenation
Cosmetic and Skin Improvement
Platelet-Rich Plasma injections can be used for skin rejuvenation through the face as well as body. This can be used independently, or alongside Botox and Filler injections. Facial scars, such as acne scars, wrinkles, and deep body lines, and cellulite are examples of cosmetic issues that PRP may be able to assist with.
What Should I Expect?
Generally, your PRP appointment would take about 1-2 hours. It involves initially drawing blood, which we then centrifuge to concentrate the growth factors. Once we have created the platelet-rich plasma, we use a tiny syringe to inject into the desired area. Improvement continues over 4-6 weeks, hence the waiting period in between treatments.
Cost per treatment
Hair Rejuvenation: $399 per treatment
Cosmetic Injections: Varies from $299-$599, depending on area
Usually, 2-3 PRP treatments are required for full results. Full results occur over a period of 12 or more weeks.

What Is in the Injection?
The main ingredients used include phosphatidylcholine, multivitamins and saline. Phosphatidylcholine is a natural lecithin which contains two unsaturated fatty acids ( Linoleic- and alpha Lionleic acids) extracted from the soy plant.
Phosphatidylcholine (PPC) is actually produced by the body itself, but the body’s version includes saturated fatty acids (Palmitic-, Oleic- and Stearic-acid ). It is found in all cell membranes and occurs naturally, for instance, in the lungs of the developing fetus from the 4th month on. In this case it is loaded with Palmitic acid and enables the inflation and deflation of the lungs, preventing them from sticking together. It performs a similar function as a lubricant in the intestines to avoid adhesions.
To make PPC injectable, it requires a solvent which also needs to be a detergent substance; deoxycholic acid is used in the emulsification of fats for the absorption in the intestine.
When injected into fatty tissue with very thin needles, the double layer of the fat cell membrane swell and harden and the agent, which acts like a detergent, begins the fat breakdown, transforming the fat cells into tiny little fat particles of nano-size (one millionth of a millimeter). The final process occurs in the liver where the fat is completely broken down into carbon dioxide and water.
Can Anyone Use Mesotherapy?
This procedure is not used for pregnant women, nursing mothers, obese patients; or people with diabetes, autoimmune diseases, vascular complications, or infections of any kind. It is important to note that injection lipolysis for dissolving fat is not a means of weight loss.
