What is a Vampire Facial & Facelift?

The vampire facial involves platelet-rich plasma injections or PRP injections. These are created by drawing blood from a patient’s arm and inserting it into a machine known as a centrifuge. The job of the centrifuge is to spin the blood and break it into three different levels. After ten minutes in the device, your blood is separated into platelet-poor plasma, platelet-rich plasma, and red blood cells. The platelet-rich plasma that also contains growth factors is drawn into a syringe and is injected into your face. The purpose of this that the platelets and growth factors ignite the body’s healing response, which will lead to the skin becoming rejuvenated. When the injections of platelets are put into your face, your body is tricked into thinking that it has been injured. This is why the healing process begins. Also, the presence of growth factors aid in the development and formation of new collagen, which will help your skin appear smoother and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
