PRP Facial
Unlock the secret to radiant, youthful skin with PRP Facial treatments at BodyLase. This innovative procedure, also known as a “vampire facial,” harnesses the power of your body’s own healing properties to rejuvenate your complexion. Combining platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with advanced microneedling techniques stimulates collagen production at a cellular level and activates natural growth factors, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more vibrant skin.
Experience the transformative effects of PRP facial therapy and rediscover your skin’s natural glow at our Raleigh and Cary, NC locations.
What is Platelet Rich Plasma?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a concentrated solution derived from your blood. It contains a higher concentration of platelets than typically found in blood. These platelets contain proteins essential for tissue repair and regeneration, making them integral to our body’s natural healing process.
To create PRP, a small amount of your blood is drawn and then processed in a centrifuge. This process separates the platelet-rich plasma from other blood components, resulting in a potent, natural solution that can be used for various cosmetic and medical treatments.
How Does a PRP Facial Work?
A PRP facial, or “vampire facial,” combines the regenerative power of PRP with microneedling to improve skin texture and tone, addressing skin concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin texture.
First, your face is cleansed and a numbing cream is applied to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
We then draw a small amount of blood from your arm which is spun in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the PRP.
Next, we use a SkinPen microneedling device to create tiny, controlled openings on your skin’s surface. This process stimulates collagen production and creates channels for better PRP absorption. PRP is applied to the skin during the microneedling process. The PRP penetrates deep into your skin through these microchannels, delivering growth factors and stimulating cellular renewal.

Microneedling With PRP
Not only does microneedling with PRP amplify the healing response triggered by microneedling by itself, but it also promotes collagen production to create elastin production from beneath the skin’s surface.
The result? Younger-looking skin after just one treatment.
PRP Aftercare
It’s normal to experience some redness, swelling, and minor skin sensitivity following a PRP facial. These effects are only temporary and should subside within a few days. Proper aftercare is crucial to maximize the benefits of your PRP facial, so always follow the specific post-treatment care instructions provided by your BodyLase professional for best results.
How many PRP Treatments Do I Need?
The number of PRP treatments needed varies depending on individual skin conditions and desired results. However, most patients benefit from a series of treatments to achieve optimal outcomes, spaced every 4-6 weeks.
You can expect to see initial improvements about three months after your first treatment. PRP facial treatments can then be added on, as needed, after your initial series to maintain and enhance your results. The frequency of these treatments can be tailored to your specific needs depending on how quickly you notice your results dissipating.
While PRP facial results are not permanent, you can expect to enjoy their benefits for up to three years with proper aftercare.
At BodyLase, we’ll work with you to create a personalized treatment plan that addresses your unique skin concerns and goals. Remember: one of the advantages of PRP treatment for your face is that it uses your body’s own healing factors, allowing for repeat treatments as needed without concerns of overuse or artificial substances.
For the best outcome, we recommend maintaining a regular skincare routine between treatments and following all aftercare instructions provided by our team.
