Is this procedure just as effective and long lasting as regular fillers such as Teosyl, Restylane, Perlane, etc? What are the prose and cons of this procedure vs the regular fillers?

Answer: Platelet Rich Plasma versus fillers.
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.

Answer: Vampire Lift - Regenplasma; Just as Effective and Long-lasting as Other Fillers? 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... ;)
