Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) – “Vampire Facial” FAQ’s
What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)?
Often referred to as the “Vampire Facial,” Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a regenerative treatment that uses your own blood plasma — rich in growth factors — to repair, rejuvenate, and restore your skin and hair. Small amounts of blood are drawn and processed in a centrifuge to separate the plasma, which is then injected or micro-needled into the skin or scalp to stimulate collagen, improve tone and texture, brighten dark circles, and treat acne or scarring.
PRP is also highly effective for hair thinning or hair loss, and can enhance recovery and regrowth following a hair transplant.
What Are Platelets?
Platelets are tiny fragments in your blood responsible for healing and regeneration. They release powerful growth factors that repair tissue, promote new collagen and blood vessel formation, and renew skin cells — making PRP a completely natural skin rejuvenation treatment.
What’s the Difference Between PRP and a Vampire Facial?
The terms are often used interchangeably. However, some clinics advertise “vampire facials” that only involve microneedling and rubbing plasma over the skin — which is not true PRP.
A genuine PRP or Vampire Facial involves injecting the plasma precisely into the correct layers of the skin to achieve visible, lasting results.
Why Choose PRP in Cardiff?
PRP is one of the most advanced natural regenerative treatments available. It helps improve:
Under-eye darkness and puffiness
Rosacea and general skin redness
Uneven tone such as hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation
Acne scarring and enlarged pores
Thinning or damaged hair
PRP works by restoring your skin’s natural repair process — stimulating new collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid production for firmer, smoother, and more radiant skin.
How Does PRP Work?
PRP mirrors the body’s own healing response. By injecting concentrated platelets into the skin, we trigger the same regenerative process that repairs wounds — encouraging new cell growth, better circulation, and tissue renewal.
Clinical studies show PRP contains hundreds of bioactive proteins and growth factors, including PDGF, VEGF, FGF-β, and EGF, which thicken the skin, improve elasticity, and restore radiance.
Is All PRP the Same?
Not at all. The centrifuge system used and the clinician’s expertise are critical to achieving effective results.
At Sebastian Rose Medical Aesthetics in Cardiff, we use an advanced PRP system that ensures high platelet concentration and purity — delivering consistent, reliable outcomes with minimal discomfort.
How Many PRP Sessions Do I Need?
For first-time patients, we recommend a course of three PRP sessions, spaced one month apart, for optimal regeneration.
Thereafter, a single maintenance treatment once a year helps sustain results.
We offer 11 ml and 22 ml PRP tubes to suit both smaller and larger treatment areas, including the face, scalp, and neck.
When Will I See Results?
Some improvement may be seen after the first session, with the most visible results appearing after 4–8 weeks as collagen and new cells develop.
For hair restoration, improvement usually begins around two months post-treatment, continuing for several months.
What Can I Expect After Treatment?
PRP is a safe, low-downtime treatment. You may notice mild redness or small bumps (“blebs”) that fade within 12–24 hours. Temporary swelling or bruising can occur but resolves quickly. Most clients return to normal activities the next day.
Is PRP Safe?
Yes — PRP is autologous, meaning it comes entirely from your own blood, so there’s no risk of allergy or rejection. Side effects are minimal and temporary, such as mild redness or swelling. Serious complications are extremely rare.
