Vampire Lift - Regenplasma; Just as Effective and Long-lasting as Other Fillers?

There is a great body of evidence based literature to show that Platelet Rich Plasma injections are safe, effective, and long lasting (Sclafani, et al.,, in particular).  As an original doubter in this procedure, I have become a believer after a 11/2 year experience.  As far as other fillers go, I am not aware of many that are FDA approved except for injection to the nasolabial folds; so, almost all fillers are used off label for facial filling, including Platelet Rich Plasma, Juvederm, Restylane (exception: lips), Radiesse, etc. There is also evidence based literature showing that hyaluronic acids, such as Juvederm and Restylane, increase the effectiveness of the Platelet Rich Plasma Injections, both in wound healing and facial filling.  The combined physician experience with Platelet Rich Plasma extends over 6 years now, so the treatment is not new.  Because the activated plasma diffuses through the tissue when massaged, I have not seen lumps, nor have I seen irregular reabsorption. I am having it done on myself, having avoided fillers up until now. I like the safety profile and the natural looking appearance.

PRP LIfts i.e injecting your own PRP (platelet rich plasma) have been around for > 5 years and have been shown to stimulate some collagen when injected into the skin.  This procedure is not FDA approved and therefore off label.  For optimal results more than one procedure has to be performed.  In my experience, you will not get the same volume restoration as you will with just a single filler injection.  Yes, these minimal  results can last longer than some of the more traditional fillers, but with the advant of Juvederm Voluma which can last 2 years and give you dramatic results in one treatment session this added duration of effect of PRP becomes less of a factor and I therefore do not recommend PRP injections over injectable fillers for those looking for added facial volume.  I do think there is a role for PRP however in skin resurfacing when using it topically with microneedling as well as for hair restoration.

Platelet rich plasma is a relatively new technique which uses  ones own blood product to improve skin quality.  It  is less predictable in its ability to fill or add volume than fillers such as perlane.  It is effective improving skin texture and tone and can be used in conjunction with fillers and laser resurfacing.  I have found it to be a great add on product to laser resufacing procedures for acne scars and periorbital rejuvination.

I see answers to this question that are not quick accurate. some answers are years old. so maybe an update is needed. i do a high volume of PRP in my practice. almost as much as neurotoxins.. and i'm presidential level. plasma (PRP) should not be compared to the effects of a dermal fillers. one fills (filler), the other rejuvenates (PRP). so they shouldn't be compared really. the vampire "facelift" is not really a facelift, but a lift in the sense of tightening and lifting with the addition of a dermal filler. that is what separates the vampire "facelift", with the "vampire facial." facelift consists of the PRP injected with the addition of 1+cc's of a dermal filler. The vampire facial does not include a filler, and the PRP is all micro-needled in. personally, i do a combination of both. i inject the plasma as well as micro-needle, especially when i'm not injecting a filler. under the eyes it's smooth as glass with beautiful rejuvenation. and there is AMPLE evidence of the safety (10's of 1000's of studies). i'd compare the efficacy with any RF or laser., there is LESS risk, less complications, less recovery time, less swelling, and if you're bruising patients with microneedling, you're doing it wrong. concentration of plasma is everything. regen kits you're not getting the proper concentration. in fact, lucky if it gets to baseline. 
with fillers, i've never seen 1cc of voluma last 2 years. just does NOT happen. unless they inject 6-8 syringes like they did in the in-house study. imo, voluma lasts as long as the other juvederm's and restylane's.. At 1 min & 28sec, there are pics of what the vamp facelift & facial should look like. hope this helps... ;) 

Vampire Facelift Regenplasma is considered to be verysafe and effective. However, it is not in the same league as fillers, which iswhy it cannot be directly compared to them. Fillers such as Restylane andJuvederm mainly contain hyaluronic acid gels used in filling areas with lostvolume. These fillers may also be utilized for enhancing and shaping purposes.Filler results mostly last long, specifically about 6 to 18 months tops. Thiseffectiveness depends on the area that is being filled as well as the productused to fill it.
PRP, on the other hand, is a liquid serum that iscomposed mainly of the patient’s own blood. PRP isconsidered as a regenerative treatment procedure, which means that the resultswill last for as long as your body will be able to regenerate.
Which one is better would for you would depend on whatyou want resolved, what you want to achieve, as well as the evaluation thatyour doctor will have after assessment. Visit a board certified plastic surgeonor dermatologist to see the best options for your case.
