PRP 'Vampire' Facial
What is a PRP facial?
A Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) facial - also known in the celebrity world as a 'vampire' facial is an advanced skincare treatment that utilises the body's natural ability to heal. This facial gets it's nickname 'vampire' as blood is drawn from the client and then re-injected into their face. Why? Because blood contains red and white blood cells, plasma and platelets and when the platelets in the plasma are concentrated - skincare magic happens.
The process:
The basic process begins with a technician drawing whole blood and then using a centrifuge to separate out the red cells. The remaining platelet-rich plasma is what’s used in the facial process.
Simply put, a PRP facial uses your own blood’s platelets and plasma on your face. The natural chemicals in your own PRP are slathered onto your face and then micro-needled into the skin during a short procedure. Once the plasma is in, it begins to do its work of rejuvenating your entire face, tightening wrinkled areas, and smoothing the overall look. It’s able to do that because PRP’s essential chemical components stimulate collagen growth.
Some people opt to have just one facial while others undergo a regular series of procedures. The more often you have a PRP facial, the longer the results of each treatment will last, which is about three to six months.
