Vampire Face Lift®

---

The Vampire Face Lift® Procedure™ combines the science of hyaluronic acid fillers and unipotent stem cells, and beauty to provide a custom designer procedure. This procedure is specific and determined by the US Patent and Trademark office to be unique and original and is protected by the registered trademark: Vampire Face Lift®.
​
Only providers on this site have been made privy to the trade secrets of how the three sciences discussed above are combined in a specific way.

The Science of Pure Beauty

​​The first part of the Vampire FaceLift® Procedure™ utilizes HA fillers to begin sculpting specific areas of the face. Glycosaminoglycans (what an HA filler replaces) act like a sponge that holds water in the face providing a basic shape. This initial injection of HA is the precursor to the ultimate desired form.

The second step is the polishing and refining step of the sculpting process which ultimately contributes to the appearance of a younger version of you. 

The third and final part of the procedure implements the science and mathematics of pure beauty. As far back as Leonardo da Vinci up until the present day, physicians, scientists and artists have worked to define what shapes, contours and proportions make a face more beautiful.​ The challenge becomes how to take a face and bring out that which is beautiful, without creating a shape that appears unnatural. In the art and science of pure beauty, millimeters are miles. Therefore, the physician employs the ideas of artists and scientists who have deeply studied beauty when considering where and how much HA filler and growth factor to apply.

How does the Face Lift® ​Work?

Within a matter of minutes, our practitioner can create autologous, which means 'from you to you', Platelet Rich Plasma and activate your stem cells so they are ready for the Vampire FaceLift® Procedure™.

Here’s how:
All within about 10 minutes here in the office, the physician draws about about 10mls of blood, he then uses the centrifuge to isolate platelets…then “activates” those platelets with Calcium Chloride solution this causes the release of at least 8 growth factors that would normally be used to heal injured tissue.
​
These growth factors when injected back into the body (the face) in a particular way will activate multipotent stem cells already in the skin (tricking them into “thinking” there’s been an injury). These multipotent stem cells cells then grow new collagen, new blood vessels, and new fatty tissue trying to “repair” the skin that was never injured. The result… younger- appearing skin! The effects of the procedure improve for 2 to 3 months and last 9 months to 2 years!

​Activating 8 Growth Factors
​Platelet-rich plasma is similar to HA fillers because it can be injected to sculpt the face. But, here’s the best part: not only does the PRP cause an increase in the volume, PRP contains at least 8 growth factors that will over a long period of time, continually work like a rejuvenating agent.
​
By activating these growth factors, all 3 parts of the aging process improve:

• The skin color becomes a “younger” color because of new blood vessel formation.
• New collagen formations in the dermis lifts the face back to a more youthful shape.
• Because the growth factors are working to build a new dermis, the epidermis (the outer most layers of your skin) appears smoother.

Further Treatment Information

What are the advantages of Vampire Facelift®?

• It is a nonsurgical procedure.
• Because it uses your own blood, there is no risk of allergic reaction.
• It is effective for both men and women.
• It can be used in conjunction with other procedures, such as laser treatments.
• PRP can be used with or without added fillers.
• 
  

What happens when we age?
Our skin color changes because of less underlying blood flow. The shape becomes collapsed and droopy as muscles and collagen decreases, and as a result the person looks “worn” or “tired” or “droopy”. 

• ​Skin texture becomes less smooth.
• Fine and coarse wrinkles begin to appear.
• Our skin elasticity decreases.
• Thinning of the dermis (volume loss)—such as seen with weight loss.​

​​What areas can be treated with the Vampire Facelift®?

• ​Loss of volume in cheeks with associated mid face shift resulting in face hollowing and lower face pyramiding.
• Lower face pyramiding, jowling, jawline sagging and chin recession.
  
• Poor skin texture, fine and coarse wrinkles, dull grey lifeless skin. 
• Crepey skin cheeks, lower face and under the eyes. 
• Nasolabial folds, upper peri-oral lip lines
• Marrionettes, oral commissures, mouth corners, and lip shape
