Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Vampire Facial

---

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), also known as Vampire Facial is currently one of the most talked about treatments in the aesthetics industry.

It is an advanced skin treatment which is great for skin rejuvenation. It’s a treatment which uses your own blood platelets to stimulate new cell growth, helping to improve your complexion and skin texture. The important part of PRP is the fact that it uses your own blood as part of the restorative technique in which plasma from your blood is injected into the tissues of your skin in high concentrations, and in targeted areas.

During a ‘vampire facial’, the extracted plasma is micro needled into the skin. Once in the skin, the growth factors activate the fibroblasts to produce more collagen and elastin, which gives the result of firmer, younger looking skin. The micro needling can be carried out using a micro needling pen. This technique can also be used elsewhere on the body to improve the appearance of scarring and stretch marks, as the growth factors trigger the healing cascade, resulting in regenerated tissue.
