Do Vampire Facials work for dark circles and bags?
The eyes are often the first thing people notice about you. Dark circles and bags can make you look tired and older than you actually are. Dark circles differ from bags in that they are darkness formed under and around the eye area and are caused by genetics and skin tone. Bags however, appear as swelling under the eye and may be a sign of genetics or the ageing process.
Most people will experience dark circles and bags at some stage, and we often associate them with lack of sleep. However, natural aging, smoking, alcohol and diet can all affect the under-eye area. But PRP therapy can help reduce the signs of aging.
What is PRP under eye Treatment?
PRP, or Platelet-rich plasma, is a safe and natural skin treatment which is minimally invasive and can help enrich and heal your skin. It is also known as the Vampire Facelift. It derives its name from the restorative properties found in our blood.
Platelets are blood cells that are a great source of healing power for your skin. Our bodies naturally use them to heal wounds, increase blood flow, reduce inflammation and even support cell regeneration.
What Results can you Expect from a Vampire Facial?
PRP injections can make your eyes look younger but the treatment is not permanent. However, they last much longer than most other known treatments. We will work with you to choose the right number of PRP treatment sessions based on your skin condition in order to achieve the results you desire.
The non-surgical procedure will see a sample of your blood taken and spun in a centrifuge at such a high speed that it separates the plasma. The plasma contains the collagen and strong proteins needed to create the PRP injection.
As a result, the PRP under eye treatment supports stem cell growth, boosts production of collagen and elastin and helps rejuvenate the skin. The PRP injection enhances your body’s own organic healing powers and encourages blood circulation to the treated area. The area beneath your eye will look brighter, smoother and it altogether reverses the course of aging, giving you a younger appearance.
What does PRP treatment do for your face?
PRP is a powrful treatment that stimulated the production of collagen and elasticin, resulting into smoother and younger skin. It also thickens and tightens the skin, improving the overall texture and tone.
Is a Vampire Facial Painful?
The pain caused during the treatment is minimal. Some discomfort may be felt during the injection, but with the use of numbing cream you will hardly feel a thing. The added benefit of PRP under the eyes is there is no downtime; you can have the therapy and carry on with your everyday life. You will start seeing the results within a month of receiving your PRP under eye treatment.
How Many Treatments are Needed for a Vampire Facial?
Following a vampire facial under the eyes, you will experience a decrease in puffiness and a tighter skin. For PRP Facial Treatment and PRP under eyes, we recommend a course of 3 treatments, one month apart. The session can last anywhere between 30 and 60 minutes and follow up appointments can take place between 6 to 12 months depending on your age and how you respond to the injection. You may also benefit from lifelong results from your treatment.
