Vampire facial PRP before or after broad band light?

Question

I’ll be doing the vampire facial and a BBL. In what order would it be done for best results?

Falguni Patel, MD, FACOG · Answer

Its depending on your skin goals..
If its more for collagen stimulation, acne scars, or texture you should start with the BBL Laser first the, do vampire facials..
If you have more sensitive skin or compromised skin.
you would start with vampire facials to build up your skins resilience and collagen first.. the do BBL Laser to avoid irritation or inflammation.

In most cases, BroadBand Light treatment (BBL/IPL-type therapy) is usually done before a vampire facial (PRP/microneedling), not immediately after it.The reasoning is mainly about skin irritation and safety:BBL works by delivering light/heat energy into the skin.A vampire facial typically involves microneedling + Platelet-Rich Plasma, which temporarily disrupts the skin barrier and creates inflammation/microchannels.If you do aggressive microneedling/PRP first and then perform BBL too soon afterward:the skin may be overly sensitive,irritation and inflammation can increase,and the risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation or prolonged redness may rise.So in my practise, thepreference would be:BBL first,allow the skin to calm/heal,then PRP/microneedling later (often days to weeks afterward depending on intensity).I hope this answer is helpful, best wishes.
