What is a Vampire Facial?
Originally made popular thanks to socialite Kim Kardashian, the Vampire Facial, or Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) as it is more formally known, involves the withdrawal of an insignificant amount of blood from a client's arm and adding it to a centrifuge (a rapidly rotating container used to split liquids up). The centrifuge then spins for about 10 minutes to separate the plasma—the colourless fluid part of blood—from the red and white blood cells.
The concentrated plasma - which is the part of the blood strong in platelets and growth factors—is then injected into the face. It can also work together in conjunction with dermal fillers for a more enhanced effect in particularly problem areas, such as under the eye. The basic PRP treatment has been in use in the medical industry for well over 20 years to motivate wounds and burnt skin to heal quicker.
It also has additional uses in helping athletes recover from injury. In this type of Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy, orthobiologic therapies inject high concentrations of naturally occurring cell concentrates to a sports injury site to speed up the healing of muscles, tendons, ligaments, bones, and other tissues. The therapy is intended to quicken recovery time and decrease injury-related inflammation and pain.
The A-lister popularised 'Vampire facelift®'—trademarked by Dr Charles Runels in 2010 during the Twilight Saga popularity—works on the same medical basis.

Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy For The Face/Vampire Facials
When used cosmetically, a Vampire Facial or PRP Therapy for the face is a unique coalition of a microdermabrasion treatment closely followed by the application of the PRP (platelet-rich plasma).
As mentioned, the PRP is acquired centrifugally from the serum/liquid componanet of the blood, which contain hundreds of proteins called growth factors within the platelets. The PRP then stimulates collagen, new blood supply and vessels, and even hair follicles to deliver real results by giving the complexion a plumper, healthier glow.
At CoLaz, the injections are administered by a certified physician and use your own blood. Previous clients have seen significant improvements in large pores, acne scars, and fine lines as well as a rejuvenation to the overall consitution of the skin.
