Vampire Facial / Platelet Rich Plasma Treatment
What is a Vampire Facial? It is an anti-aging med spa skin procedure where a registered nurse uses a micro needling device to inject your own extracted blood back into your face to increase collagen production. A slight warning to needle-phobes: the Skinpen treatment is a bit more invasive than I originally anticipated.
The first step is that a certified phlebotomist (word of the day: someone licensed to take your blood) extracts a vial of blood from your arm with a needle and syringe, just like you are at the doctor’s office so here is a picture from before the treatment, and as we proceed I will post some doing the process and so a day after and by the end of the post I will post one week after

Next they go into another room and put your blood into a “spinner thingy” where they separate the red blood cells from the yellow-clear-ish plasma. Then they extract the protein rich plasma (PRP) and put it in a little glass bowl. -During this time the nurse applied numbing cream all over my face and neck and let it sit for about 15 minutes. It felt very cold and had a glue-like consistency. Here is what the SkinPen device looks like.
Once the blood had been taken (about 20ml) it was taken off to be separated by a centrifugal device into plasma and platelets. Then the Platelet Rich Plasma portion of the blood was injected back into my face everywhere that had been numbed.
The nurse wiped off the numbing cream, and then patted the PRP goo with gloved fingers onto my face section-by-section. She then passed over each section with the SkinPen to create tiny “micro-channels” for the PRP to enter more deeply into my skin. The idea here is that the micro-channels are mini-injuries, prompting your skin to produce extra collagen to repair itself. The micro-channels also allow for the better penetration of product– whether it be your body’s own PRP, like Persona did here, or sometimes the SkinPen is conjunction with pure hyaluronic acid or growth factors.

this step, she just applied the red blood cells all over my skin for 30 minutes. And doing this time she used the plasma that was left to make me a mask to apply to my face mornings and evenings for one week, and this cream must be refrigerated, so here is a what the mask looks like,
so one the next picture is what my face looks like one day after the vampire Facial , all bruised up, but it's definitely worth it,

Later that night my skin was pretty red but when I woke up the next morning most of the redness had disappeared. It takes four to six weeks to see the treatment’s full results (collagen takes a bit of time to grow), but I can assure you that I saw benefits almost immediately. I’ve had a fair share of facials that left me wondering if the treatment worked or if my skin was just having a good couple of weeks. Trust me — you will never once question whether or not this treatment is effective.


 Not only do you feel it during the procedure and see it almost immediately after, but it has been five weeks since I received the facial and my skin has gotten more compliments in that short time than it has during my entire 27 years on earth. I used to suffer from cystic acne and I still get pretty bad breakouts now and again, but ever since the PRP Facial my skin been glowing. It looks smoother, feels firmer, and my acne scars have almost completely faded.
So now you know the truth about this much-talked about facial. Thinking of trying it out for yourself? Here’s a breakdown of everything you need to know about the PRP Growth Factor Facial.

Reduces stretch marks

You get to experience the bliss that is having plasma applied to your freshly needled face (I’m serious about this!)
There is no downtime after this treatment (but maybe don’t make plans immeditly after. Stay in and watch Netflix.)
Who Can Get It?

Aftercare
Apply the plasma mask two times a day after treatment and cleanse with gentle  soap. Makeup can be worn the next day.
Maintenance
For the best results, it’s recommended that patients get one treatment per month for three months followed by one treatment yearly.
Cost:  
$900 per treatment
A Final Note
If you decide to get this procedure please run screaming from the room if anyone other than a doctor tries to draw your blood. This is something that must be done by a doctor. The rest of the procedure can be performed by a well-trained and highly skilled esthetician. Before you book, do your research! When there are needles and blood involved in anything whether it’s a spa treatment, tattoo, or piercing — you need to know exactly who you’re working with to ensure that everything goes off without a hitch.  I hope you like the post ! see you soon XOXO PAULA FORREST
