Your body possesses an amazing ability to heal and renew itself. What if you could tap into that power for exceptional anti-aging benefits that you can see and feel?
The vampire facelift — microneedling enhanced with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) — does exactly that. Jennylle Zanzi, FNP-C, offers this innovative approach to skin renewal at RVA Regenerative Wellness in Midlothian, Virginia.
It’s more than just a facial, it’s the ultimate in collagen-boosting, anti-aging facial treatments. Continue reading to learn how microneedling with PRP works, and how it can help you achieve the smooth, firm, camera-ready complexion of your dreams.
Microneedling creates thousands of tiny microchannels in the skin’s surface. It’s like a gentle nudge to the body’s natural wound healing mechanisms, stimulating the production of fresh collagen and elastin. An abundance of these two proteins is what gives youthful skin its firmness and elasticity.
PRP takes this process of natural repair a step further. Derived from your own blood, PRP is rich in concentrated platelets. These platelets release growth factors, which play an important role in cell repair and regeneration.
When we combine these two treatments, the channels that the microneedles create become pathways for the potent PRP to penetrate deeply. This not only boosts collagen but also accelerates the skin’s healing process for faster and more noticeable results.
Your experience begins with an initial consultation to discuss your specific skin concerns and aesthetic goals to determine if microneedling with PRP is the right treatment for you. The next step involves a quick blood draw — similar to a routine lab test.
While we process the sample, the microneedling portion of your session begins. Jennylle uses a specialized device with fine, sterile needles to create microscopic punctures across the treatment area. To ensure your comfort, she may use a topical numbing cream beforehand.
Once the microneedling is complete, Jennylle applies the rich PRP serum to your skin, and the newly-created microchannels allow it to absorb deeply. You also have the option of enhancing your treatment with UltraMint, our proprietary blend containing hyaluronic acid, peptides, and further growth factors, to optimize your results.
In the days following your vampire facelift, you may experience some mild redness and flakiness as your skin begins the healing process. Once this settles, many people notice a more hydrated complexion and a subtle glow, but the exciting part is that the benefits continue to develop over the next weeks and months. You can look forward to:
With proper skincare and a healthy lifestyle, your results can last up to a year.
