What’s the difference between traditional microneedling and the vampire facial? Is one better than the other?

October 28, 2018

In short, both facial treatments improve the skin’s texture and help to reduce unwanted wrinkles. Healing time is the major difference between the two treatments. With traditional microneedling, you can expect five to seven days of redness.

Microneedling with PRP, or the vampire facial, decreases downtime to 24 hours. The platelet-rich plasma are essentially healing the micro-injuries to the skin as they are inflicted. The rich growth factors and healing properties within the PRP stimulates greater collagen formation and boosts the skin’s natural healing process. Microneedling with PRP is superior to traditional microneedling because you can achieve better results with fewer treatments.
