The Vampire Facial

How does it work?
Emcyte PurePRP Facial and Hair Restoration (also known as a vampire facial) is a rejuvenation therapy that concentrates the cells found in your own blood to create anti-ageing treatments that stimulate regeneration in your skin.

PRP treatment directly implants a variety of active growth factors into aging skin. These factors change gene expression in skin cells, promote skin cell proliferation & differentiation, and rearrange the structure of skin tissues.

PRP injections are effective in improving skin conditions and protecting skin from photoaging, and thus have broad applications in anti-aging skin repair.

What is PRP?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a highly concentrated platelet plasma obtained from whole blood. In total, >1100 different proteins have been found in PRP, including immune system messengers, various enzymes and growth factors. These proteins have been demonstrated to participate in biological processes, such as cellular proliferation and differentiation, matrix remodeling and angiogenesis.

PRP proteins enhance wound healing and tissue regeneration. Among all the proteins in PRP, growth factors are the most important components. Platelet-derived growth factor, transformation growth factor, insulin-like growth factor, epidermal growth factor, fibroblast growth factor and vascular endothelial growth factor have well established roles in angiogenesis, cell migration, cell proliferation and collagen deposition.
