Vampire Facelift

Vampire Facelift

Vampire Facelift services offered in Roslyn Heights, NY

A vampire facelift, also known as a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) facial, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a patient's own blood to rejuvenate the skin.

    • Procedure
      A board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon takes a blood sample, separates the plasma, and injects it back into the face. The procedure can take about 45 minutes to an hour. 
       
       
    • Benefits
      The plasma is rich in growth factors and platelets, which can stimulate the growth of healthy skin cells and collagen. This can result in reduced wrinkles, firmer skin, and a more youthful appearance. 
       
       
  • Safety
    When performed properly, the procedure is safe, but it's important to use sterile techniques to prevent infection. The procedure is not recommended for people who are taking blood thinners, have skin cancer, or have blood-related medical conditions. 
     
     
  • Side effects
    Side effects may include burning, itching, swelling, bruising, or tingling. 
     
     
  • Results
    Results can last for several years.
