Headache Treatment in DNTRIPLED Medical Services Therapeutic Apheresis Center
About the clinic
Headache assessment and selected blood-purification treatments are available at DNTRIPLED Medical Services (Modern Apheresis) in Warsaw, Poland. Brain MRI may cost around $800–$1,100, CT around $800–$1,000, DFPP around $2,600, and hemoperfusion around $6,600. The clinic was Poland’s first private center to offer DFPP and LDL apheresis, and it uses the AFERsmart Plus system from Medica S.p.A.
MRI and CT for headache assessment
Imaging options include:
- Brain MRI: May cost around $800–$1,100.
- CT scan: May cost around $800–$1,000.
- MRI of one area: May cost around $800–$1,000.
Blood-purification options using AFERsmart Plus
DFPP may be considered when headache is linked to inflammatory or immune processes. It separates plasma, then filters it through selected pore sizes. A session lasts 3–4 hours, and the doctor sets the number of sessions after consultation.
- Double Filtration Plasmapheresis (DFPP): May cost around $2,600 per session. It filters inflammatory mediators, immune complexes, and toxins. The session includes sterile, single-use filters and tubing, doctor and nurse monitoring, a cardiomonitor, IV fluids, and medications.
- LDL apheresis: May cost around $2,600 per session. It targets LDL cholesterol, lipoprotein(a), and triglycerides, and may improve blood vessel lining function and microcirculation. Sessions last 3–4 hours.
- Hemoperfusion: May cost around $6,600 per session. Blood passes through adsorption filters to remove inflammatory mediators, cytokines, and toxins. It is used for severe inflammation, sepsis, poisoning, and high blood lipid levels. Sessions last 3–4 hours.
These procedures use the AFERsmart Plus system and sterile, single-use filters or cartridges. Doctor and nurse monitoring, a cardiomonitor, IV fluids, and medications are included. Laboratory tests are not included with DFPP and may be requested separately.
Dr. med. Łukasz Maciejewski, a physician in anesthesiology, intensive care, and emergency medicine, supervises apheresis. He holds DEGUM certifications in ultrasonography and regional anesthesia. The clinic follows ASFA guidelines and the German Society of Nephrology Therapeutic Apheresis Standard 2023/2025. Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss headache assessment and treatment options.

DNTRIPLED Medical Services Therapeutic Apheresis Center: more details about the clinic
DNTRIPLED Medical Services – Modern Apheresis is a private single-specialty medical center located in Warsaw, Poland, specializing in advanced therapeutic apheresis, including double-filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP), LDL apheresis, and hemoperfusion. All procedures are performed under direct physician supervision in accordance with recognized American and German clinical guidelines, using modern apheresis systems from Medica S.p.A. (Italy) and sterile single-use kits. The clinic serves only adult patients and is most frequently visited by patients from Europe and the Commonwealth, as well as the USA, Canada, and Australia.
The clinic focuses on extracorporeal blood purification therapies designed for patients with complex metabolic, inflammatory, autoimmune, and cardiovascular conditions, as well as those seeking support in longevity, detoxification, and improvement of physical and cognitive performance. Treatment is based on individualized medical assessment and performed in a controlled clinical environment using advanced filtration and adsorption technologies.
Therapeutic apheresis procedures—including double-filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP), hemoperfusion, and LDL apheresis—are extracorporeal blood purification methods in which blood is processed outside the body to selectively remove targeted pathogenic substances before being returned to the circulation. The goal is to reduce the concentration of specific circulating factors that may contribute to disease development or progression.
Double-filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) is a two-stage blood purification technique in which plasma is separated from blood cells and further filtered through specialized membranes. This allows selective reduction of immune complexes, autoantibodies, immunoglobulins, lipoproteins, inflammatory mediators, heavy metals, and selected toxins. Depending on the condition, DFPP may support immune modulation, reduction of systemic inflammation, and improvement of metabolic balance and cellular function.
LDL apheresis is a selective therapeutic procedure aimed at reducing LDL cholesterol and lipoprotein(a) levels through plasma separation and adsorption-based filtration. It may help lower atherogenic lipoproteins, reduce cardiovascular risk, slow progression of atherosclerosis, stabilize plaques, and improve long-term outcomes in patients with treatment-resistant dyslipidemia.
Hemoperfusion is a blood purification technique in which whole blood passes through adsorption cartridges that remove specific toxins and biologically active substances. Depending on clinical indications, this may include inflammatory mediators, cytokines, bilirubin, metabolic toxins, drug overdoses, poisons, β2-microglobulin, excess parathyroid hormone, leptin, protein-bound toxins, triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, and myoglobin. Potential effects include reduction of toxic load, decreased systemic inflammation, and support of metabolic stabilization depending on the underlying condition.
Clinical outcomes depend on the underlying disease and individual patient condition and cannot be guaranteed.
