"Vampire Facial TM", Platelet Rich Plasma Micro-Needling Information
Pre-Treatment Preparation
Wash your face the day of the treatment with a gentle cleanser. Do not apply any toners, serums, moisturizers, makeup, etc.
Plan to not go out in public for about 2 -4 days, or be prepared for your face to prompt some questions if you do.
Post-Treatment Care
Do not wash your face for 24 hours. If your face feels tight or dry apply pure hyaluronic acid or beta glucan. Avoid any extra facial expression to allow the tightening of the collagen to stabilize. Do not wear any make up for the first 48-72 hrs until the skin is mostly healed. After the first 24 hrs use a gentle cleanser for the skin and a hydrating simple moisturizer such as hyaluronic acid or beta glucan. Vitamin C serums/moisturizers or other repairing serums/moisturizers with minimal additives can be used at this point. Expect full healing to occur by around 5-7 days. While your face is healing keep out of the sun, or wear a wide brimmed hat to keep your face completely in the shade.
Commonly asked questions
How long with the results last?
Some results are permanent, such at the smoothing of acne scars and evening out of discoloration. Other effects, such as skin tightening and wrinkle reduction, will begin to fade after a few months. However, these can be maintained longer with proper skin care, peptide therapy, and botox usage.
How much does it cost?
$500 for the face and under chin. $800 for face and deckle'tage
Will it hurt?
We will cover your face with a VERY thick coating of lidocaine cream, which makes the procedure relatively painless for most parts of your face. Some of the more bony areas are a bit more uncomfortable, but most people report it to be completely tolerable. We take an approach different from other clinics in that we do not remove the lidocaine from the entire face right away. We remove on section at a time, so that the last area we do is just as numb as the first.
