The Vampire Facelift is a single, safe procedure that truly rejuvenates your face to regain your youthful look by enhancing and lifting the cheeks where the initial aging signs are noticeable. The goal is to beautify, augment, enhance, shape and volumize the attractive features of your face. Additionally, the treatment stimulates your cells and physiologically turns back the clock on aging by reinjecting your own natural, healing growth factors.
“Welcome to medicine in the future. Imagine, for thousands of years since the pharaohs of Egypt, humans looked everywhere for the fountain of youth, only to discover it was in their blood all this time. The early science of unlocking and extracting the fountain of youth is here and evolving… who knows what our grandchildren will uncover?”
-Leslie Forrester, R.N., B.S.N. of the Liposuction and Cosmetic Surgery Institute of Chicago.
“When I arrive at the fountain of youth, with my mouth and mind wide open, I will drink from it copious amounts, to be invigorated with hope and joy. While I know others will suspiciously gargle it,”
-Dr. Leon Forrester Tcheupdjian M.D.

WHERE DOES THE PRP WE USE IN THE VAMPIRE FACELIFT COME FROM?
From you; you are the donor. Your blood has all the life enhancement essentials in it already. We draw a small amount of blood from you, (painless because we use a topical anesthetic) then with the help of a special FDA approved device in a closed and sterile manner we separate and concentrate your platelet rich plasma from your blood. Your face is also treated with the topical anesthetic to ensure you remain comfortable throughout the procedure. Your PRP and rrowth factors are then reinjected back into the aging parts of your face, neck, hands and body to rejuvenate your cells. The medicine of the future is here.
