What is a Vampire Facial?

The Vampire Facial combines microneedling with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) drawn from your own blood. Tiny channels created by microneedling let the growth-factor-rich plasma absorb deeper, boosting collagen for smoother texture, smaller pores, and improved tone.

Your blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to separate the plasma, which is then applied during or after microneedling. Expect redness for a day or two; real results in texture and glow build over several weeks as collagen remodels, with a full course of 3 sessions giving the most dramatic improvement.

Pricing is per session and reflects the added blood draw, centrifuge, and plasma prep over standard microneedling. Ask whether pricing is per session or per package, and how many sessions your skin goal realistically needs.

How much does a Vampire Facial cost?

A Vampire Facial nationally typically costs $600 to $1,000 per session — more than standard microneedling because it adds the blood draw, centrifuge, and PRP prep. Most providers recommend a series of 3 sessions for texture and acne-scar goals, and many offer package pricing.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Vampire Facial cost?
A Vampire Facial across the US typically costs $600 to $1,000 per session. It costs more than plain microneedling because it adds a blood draw and PRP preparation. Many providers offer a discounted package of 3.
What is the difference between a Vampire Facial and microneedling?
A Vampire Facial is microneedling plus PRP (platelet-rich plasma) from your own blood. The growth factors in PRP are meant to enhance collagen stimulation and healing beyond microneedling alone.
Is a Vampire Facial worth it?
For texture, pores, and mild acne scarring, many patients see meaningful improvement over a series of 3 sessions. Results build over weeks as collagen remodels — one session is a preview, not the full result.
How long does recovery take?
Expect redness and a sunburned feeling for 24 to 48 hours, sometimes light flaking over a few days. Most people return to normal activity quickly but should avoid makeup and sun for a day or two.
How many Vampire Facial sessions do I need?
Most providers recommend a series of 3 spaced about a month apart for texture and scarring, with maintenance sessions afterward. Your provider should set expectations based on your specific concern.
