Auf dieser Seite
Vampire Lifting, also known as Plasma Lifting,
PRP
Lifting, Dracula Lifting,
PRP
Facial or
PRP
Autologous Blood Therapy, is a relatively new minimally invasive method for skin rejuvenation and
wrinkle treatment
without surgery.
PRP
stands for platelet-rich plasma. This platelet-rich blood plasma forms the basis of
PRP
Lifting.
The body's own blood is processed using a special technique. The highly concentrated blood plasma obtained in this way contains substances that influence the formation of collagen and elastin in the skin. Vampire Lifting thus stimulates an active, natural rejuvenation and regeneration of the skin. Skin texture is improved, fine lines are smoothed, and the skin's moisture retention is optimised.

PRP Vampire Lifting – Your Own Blood as a Source for Wrinkle Treatment
Vampire Lifting, also known as Plasma Lifting,
PRP
Lifting, Dracula Lifting,
PRP
Face or
PRP
Autologous Blood Therapy, is a relatively new, minimally invasive method for skin rejuvenation and
wrinkle treatment
without surgery.
PRP
stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma – plasma enriched with platelets. This platelet-rich blood plasma forms the foundation of
PRP
Lifting. The patient's own blood is processed using a specialised technique. The highly concentrated blood plasma obtained in this way contains substances that influence collagen and elastin production in the skin. Vampire Lifting therefore promotes active, natural skin rejuvenation and regeneration. Skin texture is improved, wrinkles are smoothed, and the skin's moisture retention is optimised.
Vampire Lifting is thus the natural alternative to
wrinkle filler injections
, a
wrinkle treatment
with
hyaluronic acid
, or a
wrinkle treatment
with Botox®.
The
PRP
side effects associated with autologous blood treatment are rare, as skin tightening is performed using the patient's own blood.

How does Vampire Lifting in Düsseldorf proceed?
During the Vampire Lifting treatment, no whole blood is used – instead, a prepared and concentrated plasma fluid is employed. A small amount of blood is drawn from a vein in the arm. The autologous blood is then processed in a centrifuge to obtain the blood plasma and platelets. This plasma concentrate is injected into the skin in small quantities using ultra-fine needles, stimulating the skin's cell renewal. If desired, a light anaesthetic gel can be applied to the skin prior to injection. The
PRP
autologous blood therapy can also be combined with
micro-needling
.
The Vampire Lifting Process – Step by Step
Blood Collection
We draw a small amount of blood from you, just as in a routine blood test.
Obtaining
PRP
The blood is centrifuged directly at our practice. This allows us to isolate concentrated, platelet-rich plasma (
PRP
).
Enrichment
The
PRP
is individually enriched with trace elements, amino acids, and vitamins – tailored to your skin's specific needs.
PRP
Injection
The prepared plasma is introduced into the subcutaneous tissue using the finest needles. A light anaesthetic cream is applied beforehand if required.
Regeneration
The growth factors in the plasma stimulate collagen production and the formation of firmer connective tissue cells.
Combinations
For optimal results, we can combine the Vampire technique with modern
microneedling
.
What should I bear in mind after Vampire Lifting treatment?
After the Vampire Lifting treatment |
PRP
treatment, the patient may leave our practice. Cosmetics should not be applied on the day of treatment. Some hours after the treatment, minor swelling may occur; this can be alleviated with cooling and will disappear completely by the following day. The day after, a cosmetic follow-up in the form of individual skincare is recommended. The first effects become visible after about one week, with the final result apparent after approximately four weeks. To maintain the effect, repeat treatments every six to eight months are required.
Autologous Blood Therapy and Its Applications
Autologous blood therapy has been a naturopathic treatment method for over 100 years. In sports medicine,
PRP
treatment is regarded as a guarantee of faster healing for orthopaedic problems. The body's own regenerative processes are stimulated by the injection of
PRP
, and healing is accelerated.
Aesthetic surgery has discovered platelet-rich plasma as an effective anti-wrinkle agent.
PRP
contains a very high concentration of platelets (thrombocytes), growth factors, proteins, and white blood cells, which stimulate the skin's natural regeneration.
These autologous blood methods exist today:
Naturopathic medicine uses autologous blood therapy to strengthen the immune system, using the blood in its entirety.
The
PRP
therapy uses only the blood plasma with its beneficial components; the plasma is enriched with additional minerals or vitamins depending on the intended application (skin rejuvenation / hair loss / hair transplantation).
ACP is another term for plasma therapy, most commonly used in sports medicine.
In aesthetic and cosmetic surgery, the treatment is known as "Vampire Lifting", "Dracula Lifting", "Plasma Lifting", or "
PRP
therapy", and serves the purpose of natural skin regeneration.
Plasma Lifting versus Facelift
With regard to skin tightening, the effects of this Plasma Lifting treatment are limited and cannot be compared with a conventional
facelift
or a mid-facelift. In a
facelift
, the deeper-lying and descended muscle tissue is lifted and restored to its original position; the facial skin is then draped over the elevated muscle tissue and secured.
In Plasma Lifting, the patient is injected with specially prepared autologous blood. In Platelet-Rich Plasma (
PRP
), the platelets are present in a particularly high concentration. The serum also contains white blood cells, growth factors, stem cells, and proteins. The blood plasma stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which leads to skin tightening. It is therefore essential to discuss with patients what results are achievable, in order to avoid disappointment.

Frequently asked questions
How effective is Vampire Lifting?
Vampire Lifting is a highly effective and, above all, natural alternative to wrinkle treatment with Botox or hyaluronic acid. As only the body's own active ingredients are used in this autologous blood treatment for facial rejuvenation, the risk of allergic reactions or intolerances is minimal. Vampire Lifting is also well tolerated by those with sensitive skin and is an ideal treatment for replenishing the skin's moisture reserves and restoring a healthy, rosy complexion.
When are the results of PRP autologous blood therapy visible?
In the days and weeks following PRP autologous blood therapy, the injected blood plasma develops its full effect. First visible results become apparent after approximately one week. Around four weeks after the PRP treatment, the full effect of facial rejuvenation and the complete result are achieved.
How often should the PRP treatment be repeated?
In general, Vampire Lifting can be repeated as often as desired. Since only the body's own substances are used rather than synthetic materials, there is no risk of intolerances. To maintain the effect of Vampire Lifting, repeat PRP therapy sessions at intervals of six to eight months are recommended. The rejuvenating effect of PRP autologous blood treatment lasts for up to 18 months.
What are the risks of Vampire Lifting?
- Minor bruising (rare) - Redness - Mild swelling - Risk of infection
How long does Vampire Lifting last?
How long do the effects of Vampire Lifting last? If three treatments have been carried out at four-week intervals, the results last for approximately one to two years.
What are the side effects of Vampire Lifting?
What makes Vampire Lifting special is the use of the body's own active substances rather than foreign materials, thereby activating the body's natural biological regeneration processes. Since plasma lifting is a biological method that involves no foreign substances, there are virtually no intolerances or allergic reactions. The "frozen" facial expression that can occur with botulinum toxin does not arise with plasma lifting. Facial expressions and appearance remain natural, and the overall look does not change. In sensitive patients the treatment may cause mild discomfort, and minor bruising can occasionally occur.
From what age is Vampire Lifting suitable?
Vampire Lifting can be performed from the mid-twenties onwards. It has been demonstrated that the skin loses 1% of its collagen every year from the mid-twenties. Vampire Lifting is therefore an excellent way to counteract collagen loss and loss of skin elasticity, and to provide the skin with moisture from within.
