First, the face will be cleaned, and a topical numbing agent applied to keep you comfortable throughout the procedure.
PRP Facelift Richmond, VANext, a hyaluronic-acid-based filler such as Juvéderm® or Restylane® will be expertly applied in the areas that will help create a natural, sculpted, youthful appearance. We work with our patients’ goals in mind to create a beautiful, natural-looking appearance that addresses your specific concerns.
We will then draw a small amount of blood which will get spun rapidly in a special machine to separate the red blood cells and the white ones (the platelets). This platelet-rich plasma is full of growth factors, cytokines, and proteins that work together to increase blood flow and stimulate the natural healing response.
The growth factors that are contained in the platelet-rich plasma have been known to increase the production of collagen and elastin, as well as contribute to increased cell turnover, all of which lead to younger-looking and firmer skin.
This concentrated serum is then re-injected into key areas of the face, as outlined by the Vampire Facelift procedure. These platelets work within the skin, activating the multipotent cells within the face to create fresh, new healthy tissue.
