The name may make it sound a little scary, but Vampire Facials are fast becoming one of the most popular anti-ageing treatments available.
Rather than relying on artificial substances to remove or reduce wrinkles, it harnesses the body’s powerful healing ability to reduce the signs of ageing, and give your skin a fresh, firm and more youthful appearance in a much more natural way.
A Vampire Facial (often called a blood facial) is a type of PRP treatment that uses the platelets from your own blood to stimulate a healing response. These are obtained by taking some of your blood (much like a blood test) and placing it into a centrifuge, which separates the plasma-rich-platelets (PRP) into a useable concentration. The PRP is then inserted into the deeper layers of the skin on your face using a micro needling device./
This is when the magic happens. old and weakened skin cells are regenerated, along with growth of new collagen and elastin, the key building blocks of young, firm looking skin.
Due to the healing nature of the treatment, your skin cells are regenerated rather than merely being filled or plumped, as with injectable fillers, or tightened and stretched as with surgical facelifts. This makes PRP procedures such as Vampire Facials a safe, effective and painless option, when compared to other anti-ageing methods.
It can help your skin achieve a more vibrant appearance, brightening lacklustre skin, smoothing wrinkles, reducing large pores and improving skin tone and texture. You will not only have younger looking skin, but also a healthier appearance.
