Vampire Facelift: PRP Therapy for Natural Skin Rejuvenation

The Vampire Facelift (PRP Facial, Vampire Facelift) is a treatment method using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from the patient's own blood to stimulate natural skin regeneration. Growth factors concentrated in the PRP activate the skin's own repair mechanisms — for improved texture, tone and a fresher appearance.

How PRP Works

Blood draw (10–20 ml) from the patient
Centrifugation to separate the plasma and concentrate growth factors
PRP injection into the face (via fine needles or cannulas)
Or: PRP spread on skin after microneedling (vampire facial)

Indications

Fine lines and early wrinkles
Loss of skin radiance and elasticity
Acne scars (combined with microneedling)
Under-eye circles and hollows
Hair loss (scalp PRP)
General skin quality improvement

PRP Methods

Pure PRP Injection

PRP is injected directly into the skin layers using fine mesotherapy needles. Very gentle procedure, no downtime. Results visible after 4–6 weeks, optimum after 3 months.

Vampire Facial (PRP + Microneedling)

Microneedling creates micro-channels in the skin, through which the PRP can penetrate deeply. Combination increases effectiveness significantly. Mild redness for 24–48 hours.

PRP + Hyaluronic Acid (Platelet-Rich Fibrin Matrix)

PRP mixed with hyaluronic acid for volumising effect in addition to regeneration. Used for volume loss in the cheeks and under-eye area.

Costs

Method	Costs per Session
PRP injection (face)	€300–€600
Vampire facial (PRP + microneedling)	€400–€700

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How many PRP sessions are needed?

Typically 3 sessions at 4–6 week intervals for an initial treatment series. Maintenance every 6–12 months. Results are cumulative — each session builds on the previous one.

Is vampire facelift safe?

PRP uses the patient's own blood components, so rejection reactions and allergies are virtually impossible. Risks are minimal: temporary redness, swelling, bruising at injection sites. Contraindicated in clotting disorders, active skin infections, and certain blood diseases.
