The vampire face lift is a treatment that utilizes a patient’s own blood in a face lift treatment to make him/her appear, feel younger. With this kind of treatment, a plastic surgeon finds to fill in portions of a patient’s face that are appearing lined, older and droopy to give it a lift that gives a younger look. This is usually completed with surgery, but at times fillers are inserted into the skin. With a vampire face lift, one of the fillers is created of a foreign substance. However, the other filler is made from the own blood of the patient. The utilization of the patient’s own blood might be the cause for the word “vampire”.



To perform a vampire facelift, a surgeon should extract his/her patient’s blood to make one of the fillers. However, the surgeon does not simply insert the patient’s blood into his face. He/she gets cells called platelets from the sample of the blood instead and utilizes them to make a substance similar to gel. The surgeon then inserts this substance into the patient’s face in order to aid, obtain the more youthful appearance. This derived blood substance is used to rejuvenate the patient’s skin. It can alsoenhance the patient’s blood flow and help the collagen production.



Remember. There are various surgeons that may utilize blood to make fillers for the face, but this does not always mean they are doing vampire facelift treatments. Certain techniques should be utilized by certified surgeon in order for the treatment to be called a vampire facelift.
