Vampire Facial Dublin
What Exactly Is a Vampire Facial?
A Vampire Facial is a regenerative skin treatment that uses your own platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a golden, nutrient-rich component of your blood, to stimulate collagen production and accelerate skin renewal.
​
For years, anti-ageing treatments were about adding something new — injectables, fillers, serums. The Vampire Facial, however, is different. It’s about using what’s already yours.
Also known as the PRP Facial (Platelet-Rich Plasma), this innovative treatment taps into your body’s natural healing process to restore smoothness, elasticity, and radiance from within.
Here’s how it works:
-
A small amount of your blood is drawn, just like during a routine test.
-
It’s placed in a centrifuge, separating the platelet-rich plasma from red cells.
-
That PRP is then gently applied or injected into your skin using microneedling or fine injections.

What Happens During Your Vampire Facial Appointment
We make the process simple and comfortable.
​
Step 1: Consultation & Skin Assessment
Dr Sami Hameid will assess your skin and discuss your goals. He’ll determine whether PRP alone is ideal or if you’d benefit from combining it with other treatments, such as Morpheus8 or Sunekos 200 for enhanced collagen stimulation.
Step 2: Blood Collection & PRP Preparation
A small blood sample is drawn and placed in a centrifuge to separate the PRP.
Step 3: Application / Microneedling
The PRP is applied to your face and absorbed through fine microneedling channels, ensuring maximum penetration and stimulation of your skin’s healing response.
Step 4: Recovery & Aftercare
There’s minimal downtime. You may experience mild redness for 24–48 hours. We’ll provide tailored aftercare instructions — no makeup for 24 hours and gentle cleansing.
Treatment Areas
While most patients choose the Vampire Facial for overall facial rejuvenation, it can also target:
​
-
Under-eye dark circles
-
Fine lines around the mouth
-
Acne scars and enlarged pores
-
Décolletage
-
Neck and jawline
This versatility makes it one of our most sought-after non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatments.
