The Vampire Facial®: Natural PRP Skin Rejuvenation in Phoenix & Scottsdale

Conveniently located to serve the Phoenix, Glendale and Scottsdale area.

What is the Official Vampire Facial®? (More Than Just Microneedling)

You may have heard the buzz, but what exactly is the treatment that has revolutionized natural skin rejuvenation? The Vampire Facial® is a specific, trademarked medical procedure that combines two powerful techniques in one session: microneedling and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). It is not just a standard Microneedling treatment; it is an advanced protocol designed to harness your body’s own powerful, natural healing factors to support cellular regeneration and revitalize your skin.

At Beso Wellness and Beauty, we are proud to be a Certified Vampire Facial® Provider, trained and licensed by the Cellular Medicine Association and the creator of the procedure, Dr. Charles Runels. At Beso Wellness & Beauty, all Vampire Facial® treatments are performed by licensed medical professionals using FDA-cleared microneedling devices and sterile PRP processing systems. This certification ensures that when you receive a Vampire Facial® at our Phoenix clinic, you are getting the official, proven protocol designed for optimal safety and results—not an imitation.

The Science of PRP: How Your Own Blood Rejuvenates Your Skin

The “magic” behind the Vampire Facial® lies within your own blood. The procedure utilizes Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), a concentrated serum of healing components derived from a simple blood draw.

The process is straightforward and safe:

  1. Blood Draw: A small amount of your blood is drawn, just like a routine lab test.
  2. Centrifugation: The blood is placed in a specialized centrifuge that spins at high speed, separating the red blood cells from the plasma.
  3. PRP Isolation: This process isolates and concentrates the platelets and growth factors into a small volume of plasma, creating your unique “liquid gold” PRP serum.

This PRP is packed with powerful growth factors—the body’s own signaling proteins. When applied to the skin during the Vampire Facial®, these growth factors get to work, stimulating:

  • New Collagen & Elastin Production: The fundamental building blocks for smooth, firm, and youthful skin.
  • Cellular Turnover: Encouraging the replacement of old, damaged cells with fresh, healthy new ones.
  • Angiogenesis: The formation of new micro-blood vessels, which improves blood flow and nutrient delivery to the skin, resulting in a healthy, radiant glow.

Key Benefits: What Can a Vampire Facial® Do for Your Skin?

For patients in Phoenix and Scottsdale—where UV exposure, dry air, and heat accelerate collagen loss—the Vampire Facial® offers a regenerative approach rather than surface-level correction.

By stimulating this powerful, natural healing cascade, the Vampire Facial® addresses a wide range of common skin concerns. Patients at our Phoenix and Scottsdale area clinic choose this treatment to:

  • Improve Skin Texture & Tone: Smooths rough texture and creates a more even, vibrant complexion.
  • Reduce Fine Lines & Wrinkles: The surge in new collagen naturally softens the appearance of fine lines.
  • Minimize Acne Scars & Pore Size: PRP can help remodel scar tissue and tighten the skin, reducing the visibility of atrophic acne scars and enlarged pores.
  • Enhance Skin Firmness & Elasticity: By rebuilding the skin’s structural foundation, the treatment helps to firm and tighten mildly lax skin.
  • Promote a Natural, Healthy Glow: The improvement in circulation and cellular health imparts a radiant, “lit-from-within” glow.
  • Address Under-Eye Concerns: The precise application of PRP can help improve the appearance of dark circles and thinning skin under the eyes for some patients.

How Many Vampire Facial® Treatments Will I Need?

To achieve optimal cellular regeneration and long-lasting results, consistency is key. While you may see improvements after a single session, collagen production is cumulative.

  • First-Time Patients: We typically recommend a series of 3 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart.
  • Acne Scarring: Deeper texturizing or scarring concerns may require 3–6 sessions for maximum remodeling.
  • Maintenance: Once your initial series is complete, most patients maintain their results with a “booster” treatment once or twice yearly.

The Vampire Facial® Experience at Beso Wellness in Phoenix

We ensure your Vampire Facial® experience is comfortable, professional, and effective from start to finish. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Consultation & Skin Analysis: Your journey begins with a thorough consultation with one of our expert providers to confirm you are an ideal candidate.
  • Topical Numbing: A potent topical anesthetic cream is applied to your face for 30-45 minutes to ensure the procedure is comfortable and virtually painless.
  • The Blood Draw & PRP Preparation: While you are numbing, we will perform a quick and simple blood draw. Your blood is then immediately processed in our on-site centrifuge to create your personalized PRP serum.
  • The Microneedling Procedure: Once your skin is numb, your provider will use a medical-grade microneedling device to create thousands of controlled micro-channels. This stimulates collagen and creates pathways for the PRP to penetrate deeply.
  • Application of Your Liquid Gold (PRP): Your freshly prepared PRP is then applied topically. The micro-channels allow the powerful growth factors to be absorbed deep into the dermis where they can signal cellular repair.
  • Post-Procedure Care: Your face will be red, similar to a moderate sunburn, immediately after the procedure. We will provide detailed aftercare instructions, including avoiding sun exposure.

Ideal Candidates for a Vampire Facial® in the Scottsdale Area

The Vampire Facial® is an excellent treatment for most skin types and is ideal for individuals seeking natural, noticeable improvements in their skin’s health. You may be a great candidate if you are concerned with:

  • Dull, tired-looking skin.
  • Rough or uneven skin texture.
  • Fine lines and early signs of aging.
  • Atrophic acne scars.
  • Enlarged pores.
  • Sun damage from the active Arizona lifestyle.

This treatment is not suitable for individuals with certain blood-related disorders, active skin infections, or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Your Vampire Facial® FAQs Answered

What's the real difference between a Vampire Facial® and regular microneedling?

The official Vampire Facial® amplifies the effects of microneedling exponentially by adding PRP. While Microneedling relies solely on mechanical stimulation, the Vampire Facial® supercharges the healing process with a massive dose of your body's own growth factors for enhanced texture, tone, and glow.
K
L

Does the Vampire Facial® hurt?

Most patients report minimal discomfort thanks to prescription-strength numbing cream applied for 30–45 minutes prior to treatment. This makes the microneedling portion feel like little more than vibration or light scratching.
K
L

When will I see results?

Real results appear gradually as new collagen is produced. While many patients notice an initial "glow" within a few days, optimal results regarding texture and firmness are typically seen around 3 months after treatment.
K
L

What is the downtime really like?

You will experience redness and sensitivity, similar to a moderate sunburn, for 24–48 hours. It is critical to avoid direct sun exposure during the first week and apply high-SPF sunscreen thereafter to protect your healing skin.
K
L

How does the Vampire Facial® compare to the Vampire Facelift®?

They are different procedures for different goals. The Vampire Facial® is a skin resurfacing treatment for texture and tone. The Vampire Facelift is a more advanced procedure where PRP is combined with dermal filler and injected deeper to restore lost volume and lift.

Is using my own blood for the facial safe?

Yes, using your own blood (autologous PRP) virtually eliminates the risk of allergic reaction, rejection, or disease transmission.

Can the Vampire Facial® be combined with other treatments?

Absolutely. It is often alternated with treatments like chemical peels or IPL/Photofacial for comprehensive skin rejuvenation. Your provider at Beso Wellness can create a customized plan for you.
