Vampire Facial® in Farmington, NM

A Vampire Facial uses your body’s own healing factors to refresh your skin. During this procedure, we draw a small amount of blood, separate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) using a centrifuge, and apply it during a microneedling session.

Microneedling creates thousands of tiny injuries along the surface of your skin, which encourages the body’s natural healing process. When we inject PRP, your body uses the growth factors to stimulate additional collagen and elastin production for healthier cell regrowth.

A Vampire Facial in Farmington, NM, at SkinsationMD can soften fine lines, brighten your complexion, and close enlarged pores.

Choose SkinsationMD for a Vampire Facial® performed by a physician with advanced training. Dr. Sugar Singleton trained with Dr. Charles Runels, the creator of the Vampire Facial®, and is certified to perform the procedure safely and precisely for natural-looking results.

The sensations experienced during a Vampire Facial are more tolerable than most patients expect, but there are 2 kinds of discomfort you may notice.

The blood draw is a quick pinch. The light pressure or mild prickling of microneedling is easily managed with numbing cream.

After the procedure, patients say their skin feels warm, like a mild-to-moderate sunburn. However, that typically settles within a day.
