About the service
A PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) facial, often referred to as a “Vampire Facial,” is a skin rejuvenation treatment that uses your own blood to promote a youthful appearance. It’s gaining popularity as a non-
surgical alternative to a facelift.
how it workS
Blood Draw: A small sample of your blood is drawn.
Centrifugation: The blood is placed in a centrifuge, a machine that spins it rapidly to separate its
components: platelets, plasma, white blood cells, and red blood cells. The platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is
what’s used for the facial.
Numbing and Preparation: A topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area. Hyaluronic acid may also be used to ensure the skin is well-hydrated and free of pigmentation.
PRP Application: The separated plasma, rich in platelets, is then applied to your face.
Micro-Needling: Tiny, incredibly small needles are used to create micro-injuries in the skin. This
technique, known as micro-needling, helps the PRP penetrate deep into the skin’s layers. This process can leave small red dots on the face temporarily. While it might look intense in pictures, it’s generally not
painful.
benefits
Boosted Collagen Production:
The micro-needling encourages collagen growth, and combined with PRP, it accelerates the production of new, stronger collagen, leading to tighter skin over time.
Improved Moisture Retention:
Profhilo® restores skin firmness by revitalizing the underlying tissue, counteracting skin laxity, and enhancing overall skin structure.
Enhanced Skin Texture and Tone:
PRP facials help reduce skin issues like hyperpigmentation, stretch marks, scars, and acne marks, leading to a smoother, more even complexion, often noticeable after just one session.
Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles
PRP facials stimulate skin regeneration, which can help diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving your skin looking firmer and more youthful.
Understanding the Terminology
PRP Vampire Facial: This is simply another name for a PRP facial, emphasizing the use of the patient’s
own blood. The technique is identical.
Micro-needling PRP Facial: This term highlights the micro-needling technique used to deliver the platelet-
rich plasma into the deeper layers of the skin. It’s the same procedure as a standard PRP facial or a vampire facial. The micro-needling is crucial for encouraging collagen and elastin production.

Since it's a non-surgical treatment, the results are gradual. Many people report initial improvements like
general skin tightening, a fuller appearance, and a radiant glow within a few days. Over time, these
positive effects continue to develop. The benefits can last for many months, and maintenance treatments
a few times a year can help sustain the results.
For optimal initial results, a series of 4 to 6 treatments spaced two weeks apart is often recommended,
depending on your skin condition and desired outcomes.
No, PRP facials are not designed to correct lost facial volume. They are primarily for facial rejuvenation,
aiming to provide similar benefits to a surgical facelift without the surgery. While they effectively reduce
fine lines, wrinkles, scarring, and improve skin tone and texture by stimulating collagen and elastin, they
don't add significant volume to the face. To address volume loss, other treatments would be necessary in
addition to PRP facials.
Generally, PRP facials are considered safe. While the idea of injections might sound uncomfortable, any
initial discomfort usually subsides quickly. One of the significant advantages of PRP facials is that they
utilize your own blood, significantly minimizing the risk of allergic reactions or infections. Although there's
always a minimal risk of side effects with any injectable treatment, the use of your body's own
components makes PRP a relatively safe option.
