What is a Vampire
Facial?
Vampire facials have
been popularised in the west by celebrities like Kim Kardashian, commonly known
as Platelet-rich plasma therapy facials or facilities. Celebrities love this
procedure for the effect it gives in HD cameras.
PRP Skin rejuvenation
has entered a new time with the advanced Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy,
using platelets derived from your own blood to minimise or even eliminate
scars, fine lines and wrinkles. This therapy is popular with both men and women
and is a natural way to utilise your own blood cells to give you a better
looking lifted skin.
Stem cells from the
concentrated plasma is being utilised for the last few years for the production
of new cells in the field of Aesthetics.
The advanced
technology now is able to use your own stem cells for anti-ageing and younger-looking
skin.
PRP Rich Facial
Treatment
When PRP or Platelet
Rich Plasma derived from your own blood is combined with the microneedle
therapy it boosts the stem cells by releasing within the skin to produce
collagen and elastin thus resulting in a fresh and youthful skin.
Platelet Rich Plasma
is literally able to stimulate new cell growth in the patient’s body wherever
it is injected by releasing growth factors present in the platelets. It aids
the body in healing itself naturally without using any chemicals or foreign
substances. The possibility of an allergic reaction or sensitivity is minimal
since PRP is harvested from the patient’s own blood.
PRP Facelift (PRP
Injection for Face)
PRP is injected
directly under the skin and can be combined with microneedling for better
results. It does not involve the use of any botox or fillers.
PRP therapy for Facial
Rejuvenation is one of the best natural drugless therapies wherein the healing
power of your body is utilised to smoothen folds, wrinkles, and even acne scars
for better even skin texture.
What is the general
result of the PRP facial?
After a few weeks, you
will notice an improvement in the skin texture, quality and colour. The freshly
formed collagen starts growing under the skin to give the skin its glowing,
tighter and fuller appearance.
With time the skin
quality and texture improve further. It can help to rejuvenate the under-eye
area by reducing dark circles and sunken eyes, making your face look younger
and brighter.
Smoother skin due to
the new collagen production and fresh glowing skin due to the new blood vessel
formation.
Is there downtime
after PRP Facial Therapy?
It is best to allow
yourself time to heal. With the PRP Rich Facelift, if no microneedling is done,
you may experience mild redness, bruising and/or swelling at the site of
injections(s). Swelling resolves in 24-48 hours but a bruise can last up to 2
weeks for some people. A regular routine can be resumed the next day.
How is PRP Facelift
different from cosmetic facelift surgeries?
Traditional cosmetic
surgery is an option for patients who require more substantial adjustments. PRP
Facelift is a natural way of skin tightening and the results are gradual and
less dramatic. However, it can also be combined with the traditional facelift
surgery to improve skin elasticity, appearance and texture for a younger and
anti-ageing effect.
What are some of
Vampire Facial’s side effects?
If PRP is performed
with microneedling, mild irritation or puffiness may occur for 24 to 48 hours.
Some patients may have
bruising which may take a week to resolve.
How lasting are the
PRP Facelift results?
You will notice the
change after the single sitting in most of the cases, but generally one needs 2
to 3 sittings at 4 to 6 weeks apart for the best results. On average, the
results last around 6 to 9 months and is individual to the person’s ageing
process. After this, its recommended to repeat the procedure once a year for
maintenance of the results and counter the further ageing process.
