Have you ever wondered why some of your favorite celebrities have an undying glow of youth on their faces? Don’t worry, we’re here to reveal the secret. It’s called Vampire Facials, and it is not as scary as it sounds!

Vampire Facial refers to the process of accelerating the body’s healing and repair process, by reinjecting the enriched blood in the body. The blood is first extracted through the subject’s arms and processing it into a centrifuge apparatus, which separates plasma and platelets from red blood cells. Plasma contains platelets and growth factors, which reenergize the body’s healing mechanism.

Once the Vampire Facial has been taken, the results start becoming evident after 24 hours. The injected plasma enhances the growth rate of cells and the production of collagen increases. The result is skin renewal. Vampire Facial is useful for: –

• Removal of dark eye circles and bags (puffy under-eyes) due to repair and restoration of skin as a result of the insertion of own platelet-rich plasma
• Facial wrinkles
• Wrinkles or lines around eyes
• Scars caused due to acne
• Other lines or stretch marks on the face
• Besides facial skin, the Vampire Facial procedure can also be applied on the neck, chest and other areas of the body for similar results of radiant skin.

Besides the growth of cells and collagen, the Vampire Facial also expedites blood vessel growth. These new blood vessels bring a greater volume of oxygen to the face and provide essential nutrients to the skin, besides flushing the toxins from the pores of the skin. There are no side effects as the body accepts freely the plasma-derived from its own blood.

For best results, one is required to take three to six treatments at a gap of one month. The durability of Vampire Facial is 18 months to 24 months, depending upon one’s skin type. It is best to take follow-up PRP / Vampire Facial once a year for maintenance.

Following precautions should be taken after Vampire Facial:-

• The treated skin should not be rubbed, massaged or scratched.
