Q: New Vampire face lift, what is it, please explain.

A: The term Vampire face lift is used to describe a liquid face lift using Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) which is derived from the patient’s own blood. The benefits of using PRP is that it is entirely natural and there is no potential for an allergic reaction and it is very cost effective.  It will significantly help with rejuvenation and or revolumization.  A simple blood draw is done and the blood sample centrifuged. The platelets are drawn off, an activator is added and then it is injected in the face to revolumize the same as with any other filler.
