Vampire FaceLift®
The Vampire FaceLift® Procedure™ combines the science of hyaluronic acid fillers (i.e., Restylane and Juvederm), unipotent stem cells, and aesthetics 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 FaceLift®. 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. |
Aging Skin
1. Our skin colour changes because of less underlying blood flow.
2. The shape becomes collapsed and droopy as muscles and collagen decreases.
3. Skin texture becomes less smooth.
4. Fine and coarse wrinkles begin to appear.
5. Our skin elasticity decreases.
6. Thinning of the dermis (volume loss)—such as seen with weight loss.
7. And as a result the person looks “worn” or “tired” or “droopy”. The lively rosy hue seen in children of every skin colour fades to a dull grey.

Vampire FaceLift® Procedure™
Creating The Shape
The first part of the Vampire FaceLift® Procedure™ utilizing HA fillers to begin sculpting specific areas of the face. The 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.
Next comes the polishing and refining step of the sculpting process which ultimately contributes to the appearance of a younger version of you.

Creating Platelet-Rich Plasma
Isolating & Injecting the Magic in Your Blood
Within a matter of minutes, our practitioner can create autologous, which means from you to you, PRP and activate your stem cells for the Vampire FaceLift® Procedure™. Here’s how:
First, the physician draws about 2 teaspoons of blood.
Then, using a centrifuge, she isolates platelets from that blood (platelet-rich plasma or PRP). All within about 10 minutes here in the office, she uses the centrifuge to isolate platelets…then she “activates” those platelets to cause 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:
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.

The Science Of Pure Aesthetics
The third and final part of the Vampire FaceLift® Procedure™ implements the science and mathematics of pure aesthetics.
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.
