Vampire Facial

The ‘proper’ name for a vampire facial is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy. It’s essentially a regenerative therapy, which uses nothing but the patient’s own blood. Platelets are tiny blood cells which play a crucial part in helping the body stop bleeding – as well as repairing damaged blood vessels and cells. You could think of them as little powerhouses, which release proteins for growth when they come in contact with the body’s tissue.

While Vampire Facials are a very effective treatment, unfortunately they cannot do exactly what plastic surgery can. A Vampire Facial helps with skin complexion, etched in wrinkles and lines, melasma, acne, and acne scarring.

In PRP, a needle is used to draw blood from the client’s arm. The blood is then spun in a machine, to remove the platelets. The plasma from the blood is extracted, and spattered on the client’s face using tiny acupuncture-style needles to rejuvenate their face. Those promoting PRP say it should: Improve the appearance of wrinkles, scars and stretch marks Rejuvenate the under-eye area Tighten stubborn open poors Plump and volumise any area (e.g. cheeks) where someone might otherwise gets fillers.

Are vampire facials painful and are they safe?

Before any needles are injected, a local anaesthetic cream is applied to the face. This should make the treatment relatively painless, although clients should expect any injections made directly into the lip border to hurt a bit. Possible side-effects include puffy looking skin, mild itchiness for a day or two, and bruising around the eyes.
