Platelet-rich plasma – vampire facelift

Smoothing wrinkles Zakopane – Medical Clinic Podhale Art. We cordially invite you!

The fact is that the application of platelet rich plasma (PRP) has been proven to be effective in the treatment of many diseases and defects. In aesthetic medicine, they are most often used to renew and revitalize the skin of the face, neck and cleavage. Due to the special material that forms the basis of the procedure: the patient’s own blood, the plasma mesotherapy treatment is also called a vampire lift.

The course of the procedure

The obtained plasma aims to start the process of stem cells multiplication and the production of new collagen by fibroblasts, the production of which decreases with age. The vampire facelift is designed to stop the skin aging process. Additionally, the procedure is completely safe and uncomplicated. It consists in:

  • collecting a small amount of blood into special test tubes (up to 18 ml),
  • centrifugation of the collected material,
  • injecting plasma into the skin.

During centrifugation of the blood, leukocytes (white blood cells) and red blood cells (red blood cells) are separated from the plasma containing platelets. It takes a few minutes, and the obtained plasma has amazing rejuvenating properties, especially the skin of the face. In addition, thanks to the treatment with the use of platelet-rich plasma, shallow wrinkles are reduced, elasticity is increased and the skin tone of the face is improved.

The platelets in the plasma produce growth factors to, for example:

  • stimulation of the tissue regeneration process,
  • supporting the process of creating new blood vessels (angiogenesis),
  • activation of stem cells,
  • stimulation of fibroblasts to produce new collagen.
Indications

At the Medical Clinic Podhale Art in Zakopane, a treatment with the use of platelet-rich plasma is recommended for people who above all care about safety, high efficiency and natural appearance. Indications for a vampire facelift are, for example:

  • flabby skin of the face, neck, cleavage and hands,
  • the appearance of wrinkles and folds.
Contraindications

As with any procedure, there are some contraindications to mesotherapy with platelet-rich plasma. These include:

  • acute and chronic infections,
  • sepsis,
  • pregnancy and breastfeeding,
  • blood clotting disorders,
  • cancer and autoimmune diseases,
  • taking medications that prolong bleeding time (e.g. anticoagulants, acetylsalicylic acid, i.e. the popular aspirin).
Recommendations after surgery

Vampire facelift does not require limitation of life activity. On the other hand, traces of injections are self-limiting and the recovery period is short. No makeup should be applied for approximately 12 hours after the treatment. In addition, for the period indicated by the doctor, use of the sauna and solarium should be avoided. During the first days after a vampire facelift, exposure to the sun’s rays is also inadvisable. The rules of protection against UV radiation must be strictly adhered to.

Effects

The effects of the treatment with platelet-rich plasma are visible quite quickly, especially in people with skin that easily and efficiently activates the repair mechanisms caused by the procedure. In such a situation, clinical results may be visible after the first treatment. A series of 4 to 6 treatments every 3 weeks, then 1-2 times a year is recommended. The number of treatments depends on the condition of the skin and the patient’s regenerative abilities, but ultimately it is decided by the aesthetic medicine doctor.
