Important information about PRP and vampire lifting in Düsseldorf

What is PRP and how is it used in Dermatology?

PRP refers to concentrated blood plasma that is rich in Platelets and Growth factors. These substances, which are produced naturally by the body, are obtained from a small blood sample using a special centrifugation process. The process concentrates the healing components of your blood by a factor of three to five.

In dermatological applications, we use these natural regeneration factors to improve the skin. The platelets contain over 30 different Growth factors that stimulate cell growth, Collagen production, and new blood vessel formation. These properties make PRP a valuable tool in aesthetic medicine.

Our team at Skinthetics uses state-of-the-art centrifugation systems to obtain high-quality, standardized PRP. The treatment is performed as an outpatient in our first-class environment.

How does PRP treatment/vampire lifting work?

Vampire lifting works by specifically activating the body's own regeneration mechanisms. After the PRP injection into the appropriate skin layers, the platelets begin to release their Growth factors. These stimulate the fibroblasts to increase Collagen and elastin production.

The healing process leads to a visible improvement in skin quality. Fine lines are reduced, the skin structure is refined, and the skin appearance appears fresher and more radiant. PRP treatment on the face shows particularly clear results around the eyes, cheeks, and the entire face.

Dr. Lucija Grittern explains: "The effect is based on the fact that we enhance the skin's natural repair mechanisms. PRP delivers concentrated healing impulses directly to where they are needed."

What is skin rejuvenation with PRP?

Skin rejuvenation with PRP is a holistic treatment method that utilizes the regenerative properties of your own blood. Unlike conventional fillers or synthetic substances, this method works exclusively with the body's own active ingredients.

Vampire lifting aims to improve skin quality at the cellular level. The growth factors contained in PRP stimulate the formation of new collagen fibers, improve blood circulation, and promote cell renewal. This natural rejuvenation process leads to a more even skin appearance and a firmer skin structure.

PRP treatment is particularly effective on the face for treating age-related skin changes, Acne scars, and pigmentation irregularities. The method is suitable both as a stand-alone treatment and in combination with other aesthetic procedures.

How does PRP treatment at Skinthetics work?

Preparation for treatment

Before each PRP treatment, we conduct a detailed consultation. Dr. Lucija Grittern analyzes your skin texture and develops an individual treatment plan. We inform you about the procedure, possible side effects, and the expected results.

Special preparation is usually not necessary. You should only temporarily stop taking blood-thinning medication after consulting with us. On the day of treatment, you should have consumed sufficient fluids.

Performing the treatment

The actual PRP treatment begins with the collection of approximately 10-20 ml of blood from a vein in the arm. The blood is then processed in a special centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma. This process takes about 10-15 minutes.

The PRP obtained is injected into the skin areas to be treated using fine needles. During PRP treatment on the face, we focus on the desired areas such as the forehead, cheeks, or eye area. The PRP is applied using the SkinPen and is usually painless. We use an anesthetic cream if necessary.

Aftercare

After Vampire lifting, slight redness and minimal swelling may occur, which usually subsides after a few hours. We recommend that you do not touch the treated areas intensively for 24 hours and refrain from exercising.

Our team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions. Sun protection is particularly important to achieve optimal results. A follow-up appointment will be scheduled after about two weeks.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions about PRP treatment/vampire lifting in Düsseldorf

Who is suitable for PRP treatment?

Vampire lifting is generally suitable for healthy adults of all ages who want to improve their skin quality. The treatment is particularly suitable for people with early signs of skin aging, Acne scars, or uneven skin appearance. Dr. Lucija Grittern will assess your individual suitability during a consultation.

What results can be expected from PRP treatment?

PRP treatment on the face leads to a visible improvement in skin structure and quality. You can expect smoother fine lines, improved skin elasticity, and a fresher appearance. The results develop gradually and look very natural.

When can one expect results?

Initial improvements are often visible after just a few days due to improved blood circulation in the skin. The full effect of the Vampire Lifting develops over 6-8 weeks, as collagen regeneration takes time. Optimal results are visible after about 3 months.

How many treatments are necessary?

The number of PRP treatments required depends on your initial findings and your goals. We often recommend 2-3 sessions at intervals of 4-6 weeks to start with. To maintain the result, 1-2 refresher treatments per year may be advisable.

What should I keep in mind after a PRP Treatment?

After Vampire lifting, you should take it easy on the treated areas for 24 hours and refrain from exercising. Sun protection is particularly important. Makeup can usually be worn again the next day. Our team at Skinthetics will give you detailed aftercare instructions.

Are there any risks or side effects associated with PRP treatment?

Since only the body's own material is used, allergic reactions are virtually impossible. Possible side effects are limited to slight redness, minimal swelling, or small bruises at the injection sites, which heal quickly. Serious complications are very rare when performed professionally.

How much does PRP treatment cost at Skinthetics?

The cost of PRP treatment starts at €330; 3 sessions start at €900. The exact price depends on the scope of treatment and the number of areas treated. We would be happy to provide you with an individual cost estimate for your personal treatment plan during a non-binding consultation.
