What is the Recovery Time for a Vampire Facial?

The Vampire Facial, also known as Platelet Rich Plasma therapy, is a popular skin rejuvenating treatment. In recent years, it’s been gaining a lot of media attention and popularity, as celebrities such as Kim Kardashian rely on the procedure to give them that youthful glow.

The Vampire Facial received its nickname because it uses the patient’s own blood in the treatment. While the treatment can look gruesome, it’s relatively painless, and can really refresh the skin and erase wrinkles.

At Preserve your Pretty Skin and Body, we’ve helped clients in and around Johns Creek, Georgia, reveal a youthful glow, tighten up their sagging skin, and even out the texture of their skin with the Vampire Facial. Find out how the treatment works and how long the recovery time is for a Vampire Facial.

How the Vampire Facial Works & Recovery Time

During the Vampire Facial, the Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is separated using a centrifuge. This essentially removes red blood cells, leaving a serum of platelets. We combine this will a small amount of filler. Combined with the high platelet content, this will promote new cell growth and regenerate the skin to attack deep wrinkles and restore a youthful glow.

The treatment itself takes about 30 minutes to one hour and requires very little recovery time. You can have a Vampire Facial during lunch and be back to work in no time!

On the first day following your treatment, you may experience some redness and tenderness, similar to a sunburn. This redness should subside on the second day. Some patients notice swelling, but this should diminish by the third day.
