What Is A Vampire Facial?

The Vampire Facial is the same as Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy. It is a trending treatment in cosmetic dermatology that’s gaining popularity among celebrities and skincare experts alike. Endorsed by dermatologists and revered by patients, this cutting edge treatment is famous for its amazing results in skin tone, skin texture, and for giving the entire face an overall youthful glow. In the ever-evolving industry of beauty and skincare, if you are looking for a natural skin rejuvenation technique, that can become your go-to therapy for bidding goodbye to the fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, and acne scars that you are tired of, Vampire facial PRP treatment is the answer you have been wanting to hear, let us tell you more!

The Vampire facial is a specialized procedure in which a small amount of blood is drawn, usually from your arm, and processed in a centrifuge to extract separate layers of blood, one of which is the plasma rich in growth factors. This process is combined with a microneedling step where, with the use of a device, micro punctures or channels are made on your skin to reintroduce the platelet-rich plasma back into your body.

This targeted application helps improve absorption and cell regeneration, enhancing the skin tone and texture, using no external chemical or surgical procedure, but your own body’s healing abilities. We know what you are thinking – is PRP vampire facial the key to solving all your skin problems such as skin dullness, pigmentation, aging signs, poor skin elasticity, etc.? Before we get to that, let’s understand how PRP treatments aka Vampire facials are the gateway to boosting collagen production, achieving skin firmness, and promoting a younger-looking skin naturally!

Benefits Of Vampire Facials

So, what does a vampire facial do? Vampire facials can even out the creases on your skin, tackling early signs of aging, and adding the rejuvenation and radiance that it deserves. A few sittings of PRP (combined with microneedling) facials are all you generally need to fix many concerns: skin discoloration, blemishes, scarring, and so on. Getting you the smoothness and clear skin that you desire is not a distant dream anymore when you have vampire facials to your rescue.

What truly makes Vampire facial stand out is its non-surgical, pain-free, and quick procedure coupled with lasting outcomes for better skin quality. Added advantage: Vampire facials are generally considered safe, effective, less risky, and suitable on all skin types with no significant side effects or downtime post-treatment.

Vampire Face Treatment Procedure

There’s more to this treatment – that comes with a proven track record and a series of undeniable benefits – which has to do with its systematized and synergized 5-step procedure.

#1 Assessment

It all begins with a personalized consultation which consists of a detailed discussion with our skin aestheticians regarding your skin type, medical history, skin goals, your unique requirements, skin issues, and any medications that you are currently taking, to find out the patient’s suitability for vampire facials.

#2 Blood collection

A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm (about 10-20 millilitres) for further processing in specialized equipment.

#3 Centrifuge

This extracted blood in the syringe is then put into a medical centrifuge where it is spun at a higher speed to separate the platelet-rich plasma.

#4 Microneedling

A vampire facial is nothing but a combination of 2 treatments – PRP and microneedling. In this step, the practitioner uses fine needles to puncture your skin to trigger collagen production to heal the micro-injuries.

#5 Reintroduction

Lastly, the expert superficially spreads the concentrated PRP, applying a thin layer to your face on the marked treatment area which was earlier readied with microneedling for enhanced penetration of PRP.
