PRP breast lift

The PRP Breast Lift (Vampire Breast Lift®) is a rewarding non-surgical procedure intended to subtly lift the breasts, helping you reclaim a more youthful appearance through the effects of platelet-rich plasma. Unlike traditional breast lifts, the PRP breast lift does not require general anesthesia or incisions. It does not require downtime and does not involve foreign objects. Though there are limitations to be aware of, the PRP breast lift is a safe and quick in-office treatment that can increase breast size by one to two cups.

Our providers will draw your blood and spin it down. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) comes from your blood. PRP contains proteins that promote blood clotting and help with cell growth. We will separate PRP from the rest of your blood in a centrifuge, which spins your blood at high speeds, separating your blood into three parts; PRP, white blood cells, and red blood cells. The potent growth factors are then injected into the breast and chest area where they activate new blood vessels, collagen and tissue growth in the deep layers of skin and soft tissue over the next 1-2 months. The effects of the procedure (younger, softer skin and thicker more voluminous tissue) can last for 2 years and more.

The PRP breast lift uses your own body's regenerative properties to produce collagen naturally. This is considered one of the safest and most natural procedures in cosmetic injectables. Side effects, such as redness, bruising, tenderness and injection site pain are mild and temporary, are generally injection related.

BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT

• Stop taking some medications, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and aspirin, for a week before the procedure.
• Wear comfortable clothing to your appointment.
• Remove jewelry and keep it at home.

THE DAY OF YOUR APPOINTMENT

• If possible, arrive without creams or make-up on the treatment area. Topical numbing cream will be applied to treatment area, please arrive 15-30 minutes early. Cleansing products are available for your convenience.
• Your blood will be taken and spun down to prepare for injection.
• Pre-treatment photos will be taken.
• The treatment areas will be wiped with alcohol.

AFTER YOUR APPOINTMENT

• Avoid rubbing or massaging your breasts.
• Clean the area gently using mild soap.
• Avoid products that could irritate the skin until all swelling and redness have resolved.
• If you experience tenderness or soreness, apply a cold compress for up to 15 minutes, a few times a day.
• Avoid alcohol consumption and strenuous exercise for 24 hours.
• Keep pressure off your chest for 48 hours. You may need to sleep reclined or elevated to do this.
• You may engage in sexual activity the same day of your procedure if you feel well enough.

After your PRP has been injected, the growth factors call to your stem cells to begin the process of generating brand new tissue. In your first consultation, you’ll talk with our providers about setting realistic treatment expectations. The body requires a minimum of three months to generate new collagen, tissue, nerve endings, and blood vessels.

Results differ for every body. Some patients see an increase by two cup sizes after one treatment, while others increase by one cup size. Some patients are satisfied with one treatment, while others are treated once a year. Your provider will recommend the appropriate approach for your goals.

Patients opt for a PRP breast lift when surgery isn't required to achieve the look they desire. This procedure helps improve the skin's texture and tone, makes the breasts appear fuller and lifted, and reduces wrinkles, stretch marks, and scars. 

The PRP breast lift is an excellent treatment option for women who want the kind of lift they might get from wearing a push-up bra. It is important to acknowledge the differences between this non-surgical treatment and breast augmentation. If your breasts have severe ptosis or deflation after weight changes or nursing, surgery may be more effective at achieving meaningful improvement. If you are unhappy with the way that your breasts have changed due to aging, hormones, weight, and other factors, but you prefer to avoid plastic surgery, the PRP breast lift may be suitable for you. The PRP breast lift is not appropriate for women who are pregnant, breastfeeding, have had breast cancer, or who have a predisposition to the disease.

If your implants are under the muscle, you may be a candidate for the PRP breast lift. Your provider will ask for your medical records to review the location of the implants and plan accordingly.

There are a few treatments we like to combine with the PRP breast lift depending on the goals of our patients, including: PDO threads, Radiesse and Scupltra.
