The cosmetic industry is constantly advancing, and one of the aesthetic skin care services that has become trending in recent times is the Vampire facial. Are you curious to know why vampire facials are in great demand by both celebrities and the normal public? This blog provides details of vampire facials. Read on to explore the myriad of benefits this fascinating treatment offers and make a better, informed decision of choosing Vampire facial in Kumbakonam . 

What is a Vampire Facial?

A vampire facial is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure, involving microneedling with platel-et-rich plas-ma (P-R-P). 

It is an incredibly popular procedure for skin rejuvenating in Kumbakonam that helps one to enhance their appearance in different ways. This beauty treatment can help to create ageless skin. 

How Does a Vampire Facial Work?

To start with, microneedling uses a special device having multiple, fine needles that are used to puncture the skin. The needles vary in size from 0.5 to 2.5 millimetres and feel like small pinpricks, as they merely penetrate the skin. The needle pricks are intended to “injure” the skin, causing it to heal itself by inducing collagen skin remodelling and further improving the skin’s firmness, fullness, and elasticity. These pricks also help create multiple micro-channels in the skin for better penetration of the P-R-P solution. 

Following the completion of the microneedling procedure, P-R-P solution is topically applied over the punctured skin or injected into the treated skin. P-R-P is derived from the patient’s blood and contains a high concentration of growth factors released by activated blood pla-telets. These growth factors help in natural tissue healing and repair, thus making it effective for treating a wide range of cosmetic skin flaws.

Ideal Candidates for Vampire Facial

The majority of individuals are ideal candidates for vampire facials as P-R-P therapy involves the use of growth factors derived from autologous blood samples. 
However, vampire facial is typically chosen by those who have:

• Fine lines and wrinkles noticeable on the face, chest, and neck
• Sun damaged skin 
• Under-eye dark circles
• Rough and coarse skin texture
• Uneven skin tone 
• Large pores
• Acne scars
• Dull skin.

The Vampire facial is not meant to be safe for individuals with a history of blood disease, such as bleeding or clotting issues, anaemia, or blood/bone cancers. Those who are taking blood thinning medications or NS-AI-Ds should avoid it both before and after their vampire facial.  

Why Are People Opting for This Procedure?

People who love cutting-edging beauty treatments with less recovery time are now opting for P-R-P facials in Kumbakonam. Multiple visits are not necessary with vampire facials. The whole procedure can be completed in a single session that will last for an hour.

The Glowing Benefits of the Vampire Facial

Here are some benefits of the vampire facial for the skin:

1. Significantly improved skin texture and tone
2. Youthful skin
3. Enhanced fresh collagen synthesis
4. Improved effectiveness of facial skincare products
5. Moisturized and hydrated skin

What Happens In A Vampire Facial Session?

1. First, a small amount of the patient’s blood is drawn using a sterile syringe and collected in a centrifuge tube. The blood is then centrifuged to separate all of its components, including plat-elets and pla-sma, from the red and white blood cells. After centrifugation, plat-elet-rich pl-asma is collected from the tube and taken into a syringe.
2. Simultaneously, the patient’s face is thoroughly washed, and numbing cream is applied throughout the face to ensure comfort during microneedling. Once the numbing cream has taken effect, a sterile micro-needling device or micro pen is used to pierce the skin, creating micro holes in the skin surface.
3. Following microneedling, the P-R-P solution is injected or massaged onto the facial skin. The patient’s face is kept untouched for the rest of the day to maximise the treatment outcome. For the first few days after the treatment, the treated skin may appear red, dry, and sensitive, comparable to a mild sunburn.
4. Vampire Facial in Kumbakonam uses the growth factors that are extracted from patients’ blood to activate and recharge the skin. 
5. This plays an important role in patient safety as there is no risk of an allergic reaction (as no foreign component is used for skin rejuvenation). People who have sensitive skin or weak immune systems can now enjoy this anti-ageing treatment in Kumbakonam at AADHYA without any worries.

Aftercare For Vampire Facial

• All individuals who undergo vampire facials will be grateful for the treatment, but only if they take a few precautions thereafter. These are some of the post-treatment guidelines for vampire facials provided by a dermatologist:
• Avoid touching your face for at least 6 hours after getting a vampire facial done.
• The day after the facial, wash your face with water but do not use any cleansers. For the next two weeks, avoid exfoliating your skin.
• Don’t massage, scratch, or scrub your face. After rinsing with the P-RP- solution, gently pat it dry.
• Sleep on your back with the head raised for at least two nights to let the skin heal.
• Avoid taking any blood thinners and anti-inflammatory drugs.
• Avoid tanning beds and fake tans.
• Stay away from the sun for 72 hours, and then use sunscreen before going outside to protect your skin from direct sun exposure.
• For at least three days, avoid swimming and any other activities that can cause you to sweat.
• Do not wear make-up until the skin has healed.
