Should I do prp with microneedling (vampire face lift) after ultherapy ?

newlJan 13, 2017
How soon can this be done - the goal is to negate any adverse effect of ultherapy by introducing collagen stimulation while the skin is getting tightened , How soon after ulthera can this be done. I want a no swelling, minimal downtime approach as I swell like crazy , so what's realistic.

In my clinic we do the Vampire Facial a little differently.  We begin by applying numbing cream to make the treatment more comfortable.  Then we use a micro-needling device to create tiny little wounds in the skin. Once these micro-channels are open we apply the PRP...

You are the perfect candidate for skin rejuvenation.  I recommend you try the Vivace microneedling with PRP for great results.  Vivace is one of the machines that uses a type of laser in conjunction with microneedling.  The PRP or plasma will make the results even more gratifying.  Good luck.

Thank you for sharing your question. It probably does not matter too much, but I would suggest have PRP with Microneedling performed first. It is important to make sure your doctor is an expert in both treatments in order to avoid serious complications.  Good luck,
