Blood purification therapy
What is blood purification therapy?
Blood purification therapy (apheresis), also known as DFPP (Double Filtration Plasmapheresis), is a treatment method that aims to improve health by separating disease-causing factors (such as bad cholesterol, triglycerides, inflammatory substances, and viruses) from the blood using a special filtration membrane, and returning the purified blood to the body .
Expected effects
Removal of pathogenic substances
By passing triglycerides, bad cholesterol, inflammatory substances, viruses, and other substances through a special filter, it can directly purify the inside of blood vessels.
Improving vascular endothelial function
It improves the elasticity of blood vessels, prevents them from hardening, and makes them more flexible.
Removal of inflammatory substances
By removing inflammatory substances, it prevents the formation of blood clots and plaque that can block blood vessels.
Improved blood flow
It prevents thick, sludgy blood from sticking to or blocking blood vessels.
You can see the filtration filter with your own eyes after treatment, which will motivate you to improve your lifestyle.
Furthermore, keeping blood vessels healthy contributes to delivering sufficient oxygen and nutrients to cells throughout the body.
It is recommended as proactive preventative medicine to avoid getting sick.
