Risk vs. Reward...
$1,000
Sadly I have to change my review to "not worth" the price..The risk (painful, downtime, cost, results) were greater than the reward (no visible difference in smile lines, pore size, texture, luminosity) The results I do see I have seen with my Dysport injections (smooth forehead, and crowsfeet, no 11's) I would not do this procedure again not would I recommend it to anyone.

Let me start by saying that Dr. Chestnut is the BEST Spokane has to offer! At this point I have mixed review on PRP (Vampire Facial), I understand that it takes time to see the results so I'll review what I've seen 2.5 weeks post. I've seen some dramatic results in some areas and none in others. I NO LONGER have any crowsfeet, bunnylines, 11's and my forehead is like glass BUT I haven't seen any improvement undereye (still crepey), lines around my mouth (smoker for 20 years so I can't expect miracles), no difference in pore size (nose, chin), I still have "smirk" lines at the corner of my mouth and it did nothing for my broken capilliaries (Not sure it was suppose to help that tho). All of that being said, I'm hoping for more results over the next few months like Sculptra (worth every penny - DO IT) and from what I've read some people need more that one treatment of the PRP. If you are considering do it make sure you give yourself at least 4 days recover, I had some bruising, redness and swelling for about a week but was able to go back to work after 4 days without to many people noticing.

Are you planning to have more treatments to the areas you mention above? Are there other procedures you are considering?

I had the derma needle treatment...and I didn't see any results what so ever! I have been told these treatments need to be ongoing every 4 to 6 weeks! I personally don't think they are worth the money.

I had microneedling done, but one session is simply not enough to make the difference I'm sure you are seeking. I bought a package of 5 sessions, each one month apart. After each session I could see an improvement. After all 5 my 66 year old skin was transformed! It is recommended that you go back every 6 months to a year for follow up treatments.

I've had about 24 treatments. Absolutely worth the money. Money was an issue though. First time I payed $350 at a high-end spa. The second time I used a Groupon and got three for 300. I felt like it was a better experience than the high-end spa. I bought another 3 for 300 Groupon from the same person. At this point I was seeing incredible results. I then did a vast amount of research and bought my own machine ($300) . It now costs me the price of the needles tip. ($10ish)

I've had 2 sessions of microneedling with prp. I was pleased with how little downtime, and the PRP injections were painful. But tolerable. Unfortunately, I don't think I can see any change in my skin. So I wouldn't recommend it for wrinkles.
