Vampire Facial
This clinical facial which gained significant popularity after Kim Kardashian publicly endorsed it, is designed to combat premature wrinkles, uneven skin tone, blemishes and dullness.
This procedure includes an initial blood draw, followed by running the blood through a centrifuge to isolate the platelets which are then injected into your face. The platelets contain high levels of growth factors, which, when applied to the skin, will stimulate cell turnover. This helps your skin function optimally, increasing everything from collagen to elastin for a firm skin, while also bringing antioxidant and hydrating properties.
What is Vampire Facial ?
Wrinkles, scars, age spots, and dark under-eye circles can seem inevitable unless you're considering surgery. However, PRP therapy offers an alternative solution. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections are unlike other treatments, as they use components from your own blood cells to rejuvenate the skin and reduce various skin concerns.
During the procedure, a certified dermatologist extracts a small amount of blood from the patient. This blood is then processed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from other components. The PRP is injected into the target areas, delivering a concentrated dose of your body's natural healing and restorative properties.
Is Vampire Facial suitable for me?
The Vampire Facial revitalizes your skin by infusing it with nutrients, enabling it to renew itself from within. Because PRP(platelet-rich plasma) is derived from your own body, there is minimal risk of adverse reactions or negative side effects.
Beyond skin rejuvenation, PRP is also commonly used for:
- Treating hair loss
- Addressing sagging skin
- Reducing signs of aging
- Enhancing wound healing
- Managing male and female sexual dysfunction
What is the process for Vampire Facial Treatment?
At Dr. Showrya Gadde Dermatology & Wellness, the team begins by evaluating your skin and discussing your specific concerns to determine if a Vampire Facial is suitable for you. Depending on your needs, they may suggest combining the Vampire Facial with another treatment, such as facial fillers.
The procedure starts with a thorough cleansing of your face, followed by a blood sample collection. It takes about 10 minutes to isolate the PRP from the blood. Using a specialized microneedling pen, they prepare your face and apply the PRP over the micro-wounds created during the process.
The entire Vampire Facial treatment typically lasts between 30 to 60 minutes. Your skin may be red and tender afterward, but this usually subsides within a few hours to a few days.
You can expect to see more radiant, tighter, and younger-looking skin within a few weeks after your Vampire Facial, with results lasting up to two years.
