Vampire Breast Lift

This non-surgical procedure uses platelet-rich plasma from your blood to enhance cleavage and soften stretch marks. The Vampire Breast Lift® is also offered for treatment of post-implant or post-mastectomy scars and restoration of sensation.

What is a Vampire Breast Lift®

A Vampire Breast Lift is a non-surgical procedure to improve the look of your breasts. The Vampire Breast Lift uses injections of platelet-rich plasma. This procedure is also known as a PRP breast lift. The procdure was invented by Dr. Charles Runels and only practicioners trained and licensed by the Cellular Medicine Association may perform the procedure.

What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)?

Platelet-rich plasma comes from your blood. PRP contains proteins that promote blood clotting and help with cell growth.

Providers separate PRP from the rest of your blood in a centrifuge, a machine that spins your blood at high speeds. The centrifuge separates your blood into three components:

Platelet-rich plasma
White blood cells
Red blood cells

Why is a Vampire Breast Lift Done?

The Vampire Breast Lift is a non-surgical option to a traditional breast lift. Advantages over a surgical procedure include:

Increases elastin (a protein that allows tissue to stretch).
Promotes growth of collagen (a protein that provides structure to your body).
Stimulates new cell growth.

A Vampire Breast Lift may help to:

Improve skin texture and tone.
Make your breasts look lifted and fuller.
Reduce the look of wrinkles, stretch marks and scars.

What Happens Before a Vampire Breast Lift?

Before a Vampire Breast Lift, you’ll have a consultation with a specialist to talk about what you want to achieve. Your specialist will:

Ask about your health history.
Examine your breasts.
Discuss your desired outcome from the procedure.

If you decide to move forward with a Vampire Breast Lift you may be advised to:

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.

What Happens During a Vampire Breast Lift?

During a Vampire Breast Lift, we will take a blood sample, usually from your arm. We’ll spin the blood in a centrifuge machine to separate the PRP.

Then we will apply a numbing cream to your breasts to decrease your sensitivity during the procedure. Then we use a thin needle to inject PRP into areas throughout your breasts.

The injections generally take about 20 minutes. The entire procedure usually lasts less than an hour.

What Happens after a Vampire Breast Lift?

Most people don’t have any side effects after a Vampire Breast Lift. Some people experience side effects for a few days, such as:

Bruises
Swelling
Tenderness

What are the Advantages of a Vampire Breast Lift?

People who have a Vampire Breast Lift instead of surgical breast augmentation may have:

Fewer complications
Less pain
Shorter recovery time

What are the Risks or Complications of a Vampire Breast Lift?

You may experience some pain during the blood sample and injections. But any discomfort is usually mild.

Because a Vampire Lift isn’t surgery, it can’t:

Completely lift saggy breasts.
Give your breasts a new shape.
Increase your breast size.
Reduce excess skin.
Reposition your nipples.

This procedure isn’t recommended if you’re:

At high risk of breast cancer or have had breast cancer
Breastfeeding
Pregnant

What is the Recovery Time After a Vampire Breast Lift?

After a Vampire Breast Lift, you may notice your breasts becoming gradually firmer and smoother over a period of three to four weeks. Final results may not appear for two to three months. Any changes can last up to two years.
