A vampire facelift might sound like fantasy, but its results are anything but. If you have signs of aging that you want to improve or have noticed skin imperfections that affect how you look, this type of facelift can be the best treatment option. But what is a vampire facelift? At Vibrant Rejuvenation, we can help you decide whether it is the right option for you.
A vampire facelift is a minimally-invasive cosmetic procedure that relies on hyaluronic acid and your blood to offer results. In some cases, it can also involve microneedling. This procedure harnesses the power of your blood’s plasma to provide anti-aging benefits to your skin. It can help:
To create the platelet-rich plasma we use for a vampire facelift, we take blood from your arm and run it through a centrifuge. The centrifuge spins the vial of blood and separates the components, allowing us to inject the platelets into the plasma to create the serum you need.
The other component of a vampire facelift is hyaluronic acid. This type of acid is naturally present in your body, helping keep your skin plump, smooth, and hydrated. As you age, however, your body’s production of hyaluronic acid decreases, leading to skin laxity that can cause wrinkles and signs of aging. A vampire facelift combines the PRP and hyaluronic acid to provide firmness as well as growth factors to the treatment area.
We can also combine a vampire facelift with a microneedling procedure, depending on the kind of results you want. The microneedling procedure utilizes tiny needles to make wounds on your skin, jumpstarting your body’s healing processes to create healthier skin. When combined with PRP, the healing process is maximized.
It is a procedure that is safe for most people, but you may not be the right candidate if you take blood-thinning medications or have any illnesses related to your blood, like HIV or hepatitis C.
One of the most important vampire facelift benefits is that it can provide a natural look. The hyaluronic acid adds volume to the treatment area, while the PRP provides stem cells and growth factors.
You can see some immediate results from the hyaluronic acid, but they are not drastic, so you can maintain a natural appearance that only improves with time. If you choose to have a vampire facelift along with microneedling, you can expect a boost to your collagen production as well.
The procedure is minimally-invasive. Unlike other types of facelifts, which require general anesthesia and demand a long recovery time, a vampire facelift can offer results without the stress of a complex procedure.
A vampire facelift recovery process does not limit the majority of your activities. You can continue your life without needing downtime to recover.
Getting a vampire facelift is as simple as turning to us for a consultation. We will talk through the procedure and offer answers to any questions you have. After performing an assessment of the treatment areas and getting a clear idea of your medical history as well as a list of any medications or supplements you take, we can help you decide whether a vampire facelift is the right option for you.
To prepare for the procedure, you will need to avoid alcohol for a few days and stop taking any blood-thinning medications or supplements. You may also want to avoid unprotected sun exposure while also keeping yourself well-hydrated.
On the day of the appointment, don’t wear makeup or any creams. We will begin by cleaning the treatment area. We can also provide a topical numbing cream before we begin.
To create the PRP, we will take a vial of blood from your arm and run it through a centrifuge. While we do this, we will also inject the hyaluronic acid into the predetermined areas, followed by the PRP when it’s ready. If you decide to combine microneedling with a vampire facelift, we will create the small wounds in your face and then apply the PRP.
Although there is no real downtime with a vampire facelift, you want to follow a few guidelines to give yourself the chance to achieve the best results. You should avoid any abrasive skin care products for a few days and drink lots of water. Avoid unprotected sun exposure. We can give you tips on moisturizers you can rely on to help your skin heal and to keep optimal results for the longest possible length of time.
You can start seeing results almost at once, but you will continue to see improvements for weeks to come as the growth factors and collagen production begin to do their work. For most people, results can last about a year.
A vampire facelift makes it easier to get the benefits of a facelift without the risks and recovery time. Although results are not permanent, they do save you a lot of stress and downtime, making vampire facials the right choice for those who do not want to go through surgery.
