Transfusion of blood from acne

Treatment of acne with blood transfusion has recently become a popular method in cosmetology. The one who hears about him for the first time may take a little prudence, because it sounds like a serious procedure, which is associated with the transfusion of someone else's blood in severe cases.

But autohemotherapy, and so it is officially called procedure, is not so terrible, as it seems at first glance. It refers to immunocorrective therapy, which is aimed at the destruction of chronic pustular eruptions of infectious nature. So say cosmetologists and some doctors, but there is no official confirmation of this.

The fact that blood transfusion helps with acne, says many of those who have undergone this procedure.

The procedure of blood transfusion: "for" and "against"

So, blood transfusion against acne can have, like any phenomenon, "for" and "against." Let's start with an optimistic note, and see what good this procedure is:

1. It is believed that using this method includes protection of the body, and he independently struggles with the infection that causes acne .
2. "Incorporation" of the immune response helps to get rid of other chronic diseases, for which treatment requires the participation of immunity.

Among the minuses of autohemotherapy are the following:

1. Insufficiency of the study of the effect of the procedure on the body.
2. Due to the fact that the blood slowly dissolves in the muscle, painful sensations and densities may develop over time; This is especially evident after the 5th day of the procedure.

The attitude to autohemotherapy today is expressed by three differently directed positions: some say it is a wonderful remedy that helps with acne, others say that blood transfusion does not affect absolutely anything if the blood being poured does not undergo purification - for example, ozonation, and some say, that this is a dangerous procedure that can cause a violation in immunity.

Disturbances in immunity are quite possible, if you do not previously make an immunogram, a cytometric blood test, and do not make sure that you can experiment with immunity.

Complications of blood transfusion

With the transfusion of blood into the muscle, the following complications are possible:

• purulent abscess;
• an incorrect immune reaction of an organism (autoimmune) is not a proven, but not a refuted probable complication.

Indications and contraindications for blood transfusion

Autohemotherapy is indicated for:

• dermatitis ;
• furunculosis;
• pimples.

The procedure is indicated if the usual means - proper hygiene, special cosmetics, a healthy diet do not help.

Autohemotherapy is contraindicated in:

• autoimmune processes or inclination to them;
• with neoplastic diseases;
• if close relatives found tumor diseases.

How do blood transfusions work?

With autohemotherapy, subcutaneous or intramuscular transfusion of your own blood from the vein is done.

The doctor on an individual basis appoints a treatment regimen, but, as a rule, it looks something like this:

1. A total of 12 to 15 injections are given.
2. The first administration begins with a minimum amount of blood - 2 ml.
3. Within a few days, the initial amount of blood is stored, and then the dosage is increased by another 2 ml.
4. At the same rate, the dosage is increased to 10 ml, and this amount is quite painful for insertion into the muscle.

Replaced blood transfusion - from the donor, a very serious procedure, which can be accompanied by a mass of complications. Acne rashes, as an excuse for this procedure, can be considered, but the risks probably do not justify the result.

In autogemotherapy, autograft can be used - it is a transfusion without donor involvement, personal blood of a patient who has undergone chemical or physical treatment.
