Procedure

Our registered nurse will draw a small amount of blood from your arm, similar to when you are having medical lab tests completed. While you’re having your laser treatment, your blood is placed in a centrifuge to separate the working platelets, creating platelet-rich plasma (PRP).

The fractional laser passes over your skin, and the beams create microscopic wounds into the dermis level of your skin. As a natural result of these tiny wounds that have been created, the body works with the surrounding healthy tissue to regenerate the areas that have been damaged encouraging new, fresh skin cells to grow.

While these microscopic channels or ‘holes’ from the laser are still fresh, the platelet-rich plasma is applied topically – it’s painted on your skin. The PRP is colorless; it does not appear red or bloody like some of the magazine photos of the Vampire Facelift.

The natural healing platelets contained in the PRP enter the channels created from the laser, effectively allowing for deeper delivery of the PRP.
