It is a lot less dangerous and risk than it sounds. Essentially a Vampire Facelift, also sometimes called Vampire Facial, is a combination of microdermabrasion and application of PRP. PRP is platelet rich plasma that is extracted from the individual’s own blood serum. The platelets contain growth factors that stimulate cell growth thus resulting in skin rejuvenation.
There are four main steps involved in this procedure:
Blood is drawn for platelet extraction. This step is simple and fairly painless, save f or the initial prick of the needle.
The extracted blood is put through a centrifuge for separation of the platelet rich plasma from the rest.
The individual receives microdermabrasion (or microneedling).
The plasma is spread over the face.
An additional step may include radio frequency exposure. It varies from case to case.
This treatment is for anyone who has pigmentation from sun exposure, an uneven skin tone, or premature wrinkles and fine lines. Also anyone who wants to give their skin a healthy boost and a youthful appearance can benefit greatly from this.
You are a good candidate if you suffer from any one of the skin issues mentioned above. However, please let the doctor know if you have a history of any diseases or conditions related to blood clotting or any bleeding disorders. Such medical history makes you an unfit candidate for this treatment.
No, there are no side effects. The treatment uses the individual’s own blood therefore there is no chance of a reaction or side effect. You might experience some mild bruising from the microneedling, but that should fade in a day or two.
The process of skin rejuvenation goes on for up to 3 months. Even when new growth slows down, the results of the treatment and the look and feel of the rejuvenated skin can last for over a year.
Any stinging feeling that you have from the procedure will last for only up to 15 minutes after. After that you might experience some mild swelling and redness or mild bruising from microdermabrasion. This will, however, fade within the next two days completely. Aftercare involves preventing direct sun exposure and keeping your skin well hydrated and moisturized.
