The vampire facial has easily become a famous buzzword in the skincare industry.Microneedling is the hero of the skincare routines for many fresh-faced celebs. Celebrities love it, skin care influencers can't stop talking about it.Is it worth the hype?
This procedure has earned the nickname “Vampire Facial” primarily because we are using your own blood. When we add PRP to microneedling, we’re combining two therapies to supercharge your facial treatment.
PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. PRP is a concentrated blend of plasma cells and specific growth factors. This naturally stimulates collagen production, speeds up the healing process of the microneedling treatment, and helps boost skin renewal on a cellular level resulting in brighter skin with a youthful glow.
How a Vampire Facial Works: PRP Microneedling Step by Step
Your vampire facial starts with us extracting a small amount of your own blood and spinning it in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets in the blood. Your personal PRP serum has 5-10 times as many platelets and growth factors as what’s found in normal, circulating blood.
It’s full of growth factors which will stimulate even more collagen production. PRP does more than just signal for cellular growth, though. It also facilitates growth by acting as a messenger between cells and growth factors. Old, damaged or aged skin is replaced with healthy, refreshed skin as the PRP speeds the process along.
Add PRP to the mix or use it as a stand-alone treatment to take your results to the next level, and it’s natural!
5 Benefits of a PRP Vampire Facial
Level-up collagen production
The root of signs of aging like wrinkles and creases is collagen loss. Microneedling works by inflicting micro-injuries to your skin; your body responds to these micro-wounds by gradually stimulating the growth of new collagen and self-healing naturally. PRP contains growth factors that enter your skin through these micro-tears to stimulate collagen production faster and enhance your results from microneedling.
